Are we having a debate or are you just preaching? Because you don’t seem to care about facts.

There will be racist blacks as long as people like you & the people at Desi Vegas Metairie exist
Let me use your logic and make an equivalent statement
“There will always be a server that adds 20% to the bill as long as some black people don’t tip well”
Are you cool with that?

Roughly 10% African American in the bordering areas. That's not "practically none" in any sense of the term.
There's also a bunch of Messicans that live in that area

There are practically no blacks that live in that surrounding area of East Jefferson parish. Bordering old Metairie, lakeview, bucktown, etc
That’s an absurd statement. I see people of color all over Jefferson parish and the street that desi vega is on is practically 10 square blocks of low rent apartments with a ton of black people.
When are you going to stop lying?

Maybe the server just got screwed by back to back tables of black people not tipping. Does that make what he did right? Absolutely not. But sometimes there are explanations for events that aren’t as nefarious as they seem.
I mean That specific explanation is exactly as nefarious as this situation seems.

So you are on record that 10% is "practically none?"

Since no one here apparently knows what it means, how about educating us?

The shut the frick up about racism in this country
According to you, the instances of it are "practically nothing." Posted on 3/1/21 at 3:34 pm to Lester Earl

The only clown in this scenario is the clown that called the restaurant (while they were still sitting at their table),called friends who frequent the restaurant (while still sitting at the table), then spotted a white couple that had just paid for their bill and pulled them to the side and asked them if that happened to them...
Seems like this dude was looking to be offended....
Then...called the manager over to the table..attention whoring 101
The rest is all hearsay....

and asked if he had lied. He admitted that he did. He confirmed that he and the server prejudged us. Said he felt bad so he kept the lie going. Said he was in a “precarious” position. Said he didn’t mean to racially profile us but his server asked him to do this to us so he went along with it. Said he was “embarrassed and humiliated.” Promised he’d never do it again. Said they never did it before.

How so? It could mean the waiter got screwed and wrongfully stereotyped a black couple.
Is that proof of “systemic racism” and “horrendous” societal issues that need to be addressed immediately? Give me a break. White people get stereotyped all of the time.
Go try to join a pickup basketball game uptown and see where you get picked.

Because to them, there is only one side.

No we get the point.
It’s just wrong.
And you’re literally trying to tell black people that just because they’ve encountered racists throughout their life they shouldn’t assume all White people are racists while trying to say it’s really not that bad if a few black people had snubbed the waiter.

Explain it then.
Is stereotyping unique to black people?
Explain how we know people like Asians are constantly stereotyped in this country yet in every statistical category they are doing better than every other group, way better than whites the evil stereotypers
Let me just make it really clear, why is stereotyping holding blacks back but not any other group?

How so? Why didnt he just get in touch with Desi and air his grievances in a private manner? Was it because he's trying to keep everyone woke? What's his end game for going public the way he did except for attention
