Restaurants need to only accept reservations via Apps and require a valid credit card to seat anyone who wants to eat at your restaurant to stop this crap from happening.

They need to do the same with this group. Blast those video shots all over social media and place the pictures on the store entrances, label them thieves.

Our local, family-owned grocery store places a picture at every register and on the glass doors of shoplifters caught on camera.

This is how stereotypes get started. The next time a group of young African Americans go to that restaurant, the staff will be more suspicious. Unfortunate , but it’s just human nature.

What was she doing while you all viewed the video?

She was waiting back at the table. I don't think she knew we were looking at cameras. The manager just kind of pulled me aside to talk and I assume she didn't hear the conversation.

And the staffs parents will just say "we told you so". Things haven't changed in generations no matter how much white guilt tries to throw money at fixing it.

If cars didn't auto lock when put in gear, that random locking sound would be way more natural to the younger gen. It was like a signal from your parents to put your head on a swivel.

Would be cool to get a camera with facial recognition software and create an app where restaurants load pictures of perps who do this, and when they go to other restaurants that restaurant can use the app and facial recognition cameras at the entrance to flag potential problem customers so they can refuse service or make them pay when they order

can definitely see paying when you order becoming a thing at traditional restaurants.


Would be easy with tech. Just like the pay at the table tablets you see at places like Chilis. Except you must scan your card beforehand to open a tab then you close it when you leave

That sounds cool but it's much easier to just make them open up a tab. I'm surprised more places don't do this already.

Mama Tequila says a party of seven skipped out on their $200 bill Tuesday night.


Seven people only racked up $200?

Mama Tequila isn't exactly fine dining. That's over $28/person

Is it bad that I have a charge account at the local Mexican restaurant and just pay my margarita and lunch fajitas tab every month?

To this day it is the best sex I've ever had. She was eager to please and willing to try anything. So I'd be lying if I said I didn't find my way back to her bedroom once or twice. I'm not proud of it though


What kind of cigarettes did she smoke?

Restaurants are going to start making people pay before they eat or open a tab before they are served. Problem solved


Racism suits start over shite like that.


Shoney’s on College in BR got protested and shut down over that because some of the people showing up were from a black clergy convention.

There were also problems in the 90s when Denny’s was accused of racism for doing the same.

Then as soon as I went to the restroom my date took the money out of the folio thing and stuffed it in her purse.

Those cameras saved you, she would have yanked off your condom while your weren’t looking, for sure.
