When do you start teaching your kids appropriate behaviour? And are you sure? Why would 5-7 year olds be out trick or treating unsupervised?

Okay, it is racist. What people need to figure out and come to grips with is that racism is not a crime. It is short-sighted. But he is not lynching or dressed in Klan gear. He stated an opinion.

This country will never move on until it moves on. And just stop trying so hard to become offended.

I agree but did he really need to use racists terms to the kids? Why not be outraged at these kids parents instead

Do you realize how hard it is for white people to make sure they're not being a racist these days?


It’s not hard.

I read this guys post and truly believe he was trying to look for a gotcha moment to seem relevant


Honestly, I don’t know how you saw this. Not saying you are wrong. I just don’t get it.

That's what social media has become these days


Social media, from the dawn of time has been awful.

People are people. They don’t change.

People gossip/criticize our leaders/wealthy. Same as it ever was.
quote:

Just look at the instawhores.


They are monetizing an asset. That is different than just “look at me posts.” At lease to me.

If you are able to earn money through your posts, god bless you. Be it racist bs, hot chicks, posting reviews, etc.
quote:

Wait until sexual media posts become the new racist.


You won’t be around for that, whatever it is. We are a long way from ending discussion on racism. And unfortunately it isn’t a discussion on the fringes. This franchise owner proves that.

I grew up in an upper middle class suburbs. We all were taught morals.

Yet good kids took more than one candy. Some cheated on tests.

And some who took more turned out just fine.

It’s funny. But this board has people who subscribe to “if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying “

And I don’t know how many times I’ve read about people stealing content.

Bet a healthy number of those believe they were taught morals. Believe they are raising moral kids. And regularly attend church.

Ahhhhhhh. Okay.

So your problem is that he called them mean names? I still don’t think they were 5-7.

What mean names are acceptable to call little ingrates.

As a businessman who owns a popular chain restaurant, he should be aware of what he posted.

You can sit here and try to justify it by saying he didn't say this or that, but it was implied and you know right away how people will take it. Perception is the only thing that matters.
