Again, only an observation, that quite a few people are making.

Most of the people I see in there are blacks whom I assume are Americans. Who are you talking about? Wal*Mart can pick and choose now. There are many people who would love a job there- or anywhere. That particular Wal*Mart is the black Wal*Mart because it is the closest Wal*Mart to southwest Atlanta. A large number of the cars in the parking lot bear Fulton license plates.

And this goes across ALL levels of businesses, from fast food outlets to airlines to hotels to grocery stores. It is simply beyond sickening, in my honest opinion.
For real, I went to Miami two weeks ago and the service was horrible, everywhere I went. Not to mention everyone looks straight out of Jersey. ick.

You haven't backed your "observation" up with any facts.

Not really a reply to your post but an interesting perspective on where people come from:
