If waiving fees for certain people is discrimination, then good bye senior citizen discounts or veteran discounts.



It will make for an interesting case when they’re clearly sued.

So if a restaurant automatically added an 18% tip to all black people's bills you'd be good with that too? They would still be able to eat in the restaurant

Is this a minority owned business?

No, it's not ironic because what they are doing is just being racist shitheads. I know it seems *woke* but it is just fricking lame, retarded, and anti-American. If you are supporting this then you are either 1/ a dumbass, or 2/ a rabble rousing a-hole.


Where did I support this? I’m just not a psychopath who wants someone to toss a Molotov cocktail through their window.

I don’t think he’s good with it, just pointing out similar situations that are allowed.

Try renting property and charging more for minorities. Same situation as the clothes store.

Good for them. It’s a private business. They should be allowed to run their business how they want


Well they can but they aren’t allowed to discriminate on the basis of race.. I’m sure you knew that though

Sure, I DGAF. Add it to families with multiple screaming kids too and anyone who orders off the 2 for $20 menu.

People discriminate all the time. Kids get in free. Ladies Night no cover and drink free. Senior citizen discount. Military discount. Healthcare worker discount. This is a discount.

I'm going to start charging a renters fee of $500 a month on my rental property. The fee will be waived for white people and single hot Asian girls.

Your soft-shoe endorsement of their reverse racism was enough for me. If you think that the right can play defense by being *the bigger man* you have lost your fricking mind. You don't even understand the game that is being played.

This confuses me more than the race specifics

“Here’s 20 bucks so I can come shop.

Okay I shopped, give it back.”

A small price to pay for equality.

Not true. Everyone (hopefully) can get old. You can also choose to serve in the armed forces.
No one can choose which race they are. This is textbook discrimination.

A few days ago, the store posted they’re charging a $20 refundable appointment fee for customers wanting to reserve a spot to come to the store and shop.


Imagine putting a down payment to shop at a store, regardless of your race.
