What are the chances this actually happened (video)? UPDATE: She's a Georgia lawmaker too

Woman starts the video off and says this white privilege stuff has got to stop. Then she says she was just at Publix and was in line for the under 10 items but she had 15. Was told to get in another line, then some random arse white guy comes up to her calls her a lazy son of a bitch and tells her she needs to go back where she came from.
Video is below:

A pregnant African American lawmaker in Georgia said she was verbally attacked in a supermarket Friday by a middle-aged white man who used profanity, called her vulgar names and told her to “go back where you came from” as her nine-year-old daughter looked on.
Erica Thomas, a Democrat and Georgia state representative from Austell, said the man was irate that she was in an express line with too many items. Thomas said she was in a line for customers with 10 items or less because she cannot stand for long periods of time.

Link not working? It's working on my end

Pretending this really happened, why does King think Publix should address what some random customer may have said to another customer?

Invisible tears?

Publix would not have kicked her to the other line, and certainly not in that manner.
I doubt she only had 15 items. That's where the exaggeration starts.

The only thing the story's missing to make it less believable is an additional alleged quote "Donald Trump empowered me to say this" at the very end.

It's Saturday and I'm betting not a ton of people in the office right now, Shaun.

We have made contact with @Publix @PublixHelps on Veterans Memorial HWY to get the tape and information #IStandWithErica
Who would have guessed the store wouldn't have just given up their video to anyone one and referred them to the corporate office? It's work product; there are court rulings that allow stores to withhold footage until after a complainant testifies under oath before they have to share it. They aren't just going to give it up; certainly not without clearing it with the corporate office.
Also, exactly what criminal charges does she expect to pursue?

Dont play coy, you know how this works....feel free to throw in that further embellishment and then fully commit to believing it. Easy peasy.
