You seem to understand it quite well what it has to do with the situation. You simply don't like it.
No I don't understand at all. It seems like you're suggesting that people somehow have the right to be rude to a complete stranger based of the assumption that they might listen to a particular type of music.
So if you got shot while outside minding your own business, I guess it would be safe to say you shouldn't be upset that you were shot because at one point in time you watched a movie where someone shot someone else.
Old People, Europeans and African Americans are known as poor tippers in restaurants.
Business man on Expense Accounts and loud mouth Italian Americans Mafia Wannabe types are known as Big tippers.
Waitress work for tips and often are living paycheck to paycheck a large table that takes up most of night stiffing them could mean a missed car payment or an electric bill not getting paid. Hence they are reluctant to take those tables.
Chad Johnson "Ochocinco" the former famous football player and Dancing with the Stars Contestant actually always tips really big to help get rid of this stereotype . He even posts his tips on Twitter. Shows pictures of receipts etc. and waitress getting them.
But that would be ridiculous to assume that because some patrons are black they will be bad tippers, thus not treat them with respect. It is your job to treat all patrons with respect as a waiter, even if they are not great (except in extreme circumstances).
I think you are trying to be obtuse to avoid the actual point made by me, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt here and respond in kind. So lets see here:
It seems like you're suggesting that people somehow have the right to be rude to a complete strange
non-sequitur, Nope. Good manners are not a civil or legal right. This is something that your parents teach you.
So if you got shot while outside minding your own business, I guess it would be safe to say you shouldn't be upset that you were shot because at one point in time you watched a movie where someone shot someone else.
You are making guesses about your own hypothetical situation.
Nowhere in your response to me did you actually address the topic or my post about it.

Would you do us a favor and please explain in simple language what you are trying to say that relates "directly" with the news we are discussing? If you do so I'll leave you a rep as well

Wait didn't you start this whole conversation with "I wonder how many of those offended listen to music with the N word in it?"
So isn't your point is not that people shouldn't be offended by being called a name because they might have listened to a song with that same offensive word in it? I'm trying to follow your lack of logic but it's difficult.
A customer who doesn't tip is not a good customer, period.
There is only one time that I can think of that I did not tip a waitress. The reason was because she preferred to flirt & do shots with the table of guys next to my friend & I. When she came to take our order, she was distracted by the table of guys & had to ask us to repeat our order. Then, she would disappear & reappear only to be seen talking to the guys. Then I saw her do a shot with them. That was the final straw. What I should've done was talk to management but you know, some places just don't care. I preferred to just not tip her. I'm sure she got the message. That was the one & only time that I can think of because that was the only time I can remember getting such horrid service. Other than that, I tip good.
For everyone who wants to believe that there's no difference in tipping between blacks and whites: Cornell did a study on it and you're wrong. (Though anyone who has ever been a server already knew that)
Even my black coworkers didn't want to wait on black customers. Sorry, but more often than not they are just terrible.
Also, the entire notion that a word is off limits to certain people based on their skin color is amazingly stupid, and further keeps a divide up.
