I honestly have no idea. Seems like something the wonderful whites of west Virginia would do. Or people from Florida.

Facts are facts. Pointing out facts, especially in a crude manner these days always fits under some politically correct umbrella.

People in high profile positions would do well to avoid pointing out such things whether true or not.

Prepare to suffer the consequences of you do.

They will find someone else. It's not worth the potential negative publicity to them.

Any business owner...or hell, any person period, who would do something so stupid and unreasonable as this guy won't get any defense from me. He's a damn fool, and I'm certain his ignorant actions would mean he and I do not agree on much in our perception of the world.



Ok

don't think you understand the definition of racism-


I do.

Racism is underlined by this singular notion: one's belief that their race is superior.

What you're thinking of is prejudice, at best. What it really is, is an opinion- a worldview. Right or wrong, it's an opinion based off of a worldview.


Nope. I was calling out a racist.
quote:

who's right and who's wrong?


Both parties.

As another poster said, there are cogs that illuminate a much bigger set of circumstances: We all know right from wrong and where the line is, and so do you, but your intolerance will never allow you to not ignore it.



Nah.

Stop with your hate and intolerance and burying your head in the sand


I’m not.

because your hate and prejudice and intolerance will eat you alive bro.


You are confused.

Who am I bigoted against. This should be fun.

Stop the hate.

Classic. After all your other bs you decide to white knight for employees.

And you blame everyone but the person responsible.
