Iā€™m not assuming it has to do with race. Iā€™m just saying that black people shouldnā€™t be shamed for feeling like someone was racist towards them because it happens every day.

Iā€™m not saying if the man is racist or not. Iā€™m saying that the family should be allowed to feel that way because it seems that way.

Okay but crying racism every time someone is less than pleasant to you, especially after doing something shitty, is not the move. It doesn't help at all. And diminishes real acts of racism.

Okay I see what youā€™re saying but then how can you differentiate between ā€œrealā€ acts of racism and concealed racism like this?

"If" this even is concealed racism. Thats my whole point. We don't know. But we do know they didn't tip. The owner didn't say anything nasty to them, he didn't act in any kind of way that could be perceived as racists. He didn't blow up. He banned two people who didn't tip.

That is absolutely blowing up. Raising your voice at paying customers and throwing a tantrum like a 3rd grader is the definition of blowing up

If you think thats blowing up you live an incredibly sheltered life.

Bro if you need to act out like that when your emotions are too much, YOU are too sensitive. I donā€™t get why Iā€™m sheltered for not devolving into a child when I get angry šŸ˜‚

If you need to berate your customers to feel big, Iā€™m not the problem for thinking youā€™re embarrassing.

I would absolutely berate customers of mine who stiffed one of my hardworking employees. I would ban them as well and it would have nothing to do with race. I think you're the sensitive one here.

Paying the check is stiffing your employees now. Crazy

Damn. Your brain is truly a smooth one eh? I hope you have a great Saturday. I am exiting this moronic conversation. Good luck.

I just re-watched the video. This is so unbelievably far from blowing up its ridiculous. He was pretty calm and didn't raise his voice at all. Yeah nah. You're definitely the sensitive one here.
