Seems like Walgreens has had a change of heart

Well the white people aint stealing the black people products? If that's what seems to be disappearing the most then i can give you a clue who maybe stealing these products. Reminds me of when all the looting started after katrina in New Orleans. All the music cd's were stolen except the country music section. Just saying.

It's nothing but resume paper and father's day cards.

Minus the bulletproof glass, it's a lot like Mr. Charley's store across the street from old Tipton High, the junior high I went to, iin the 70's. in Kosciusko, MS. Tipton was the "Separate but equal", all-Black school in town. There was a parish Separate but equal" school for kids that lived in the country.

When you walked into Mr. Charley's, which was a renovated shotgun house, there were glass covered counters on the right, across the back and on the left. Mr. Charley was behind the counter and customers were in the middle, where there was a wood stove and some green wooden chairs. He would go to the area behind the counter where people were needed things, and bring what they wanted to the register in front for payment. Mr. Charley only had one whole leg. He had a peg from the knee down and got around faster than you'd think he could. Everyone said he carried a pistol, but I never saw one.

I bought Cokes and candy there. He didn't sell alcohol, but sold individual cigarettes. Guys would be standing around smoking by the wood stove. I doubt I went in more than 10 times times because it was off limits for Coach Joe Wood's football players. I quit going after he made me run after he saw me over there.

Thanks for helping spur a few innocent memories.

This is all fault of liberal white women. They're the cause of 98% of the problems in the Western world

I used to think this was b.s., but not any more.

Example: I know a young woman who is married to a doctor. She's a stay-at-home mom, and they have a lot of money. She belongs to an exclusive sorority. They travel.

The sorority membership is all white. Her FB friends list is all white. There are zero signs of any diversity in her life. Her kids go to an private school with zero black students.

So, she posts a picture on FB of her two sons and her following the boys participation in some diversity seminar/symposium. "Look at me, look at how special I am when it comes to diversity" type of post.

An FB friend who used to get all her attention from posting about her daughter and son had to switch showing off methods when her kids went off to college. So now, it is a daily barrage of how trans-gender woke she is.
