Apparently not.

I’m sure it’s because he was on the phone or wore sneakers in a loafers only zone.

I’m sure there are cases where stupid things happen to people of other races but they ain’t clickbait.

I was just reading about this. How does one get kicked out for using a lobby phone even after proving you are a registered guest there?

This kind of stuff happens far too often to get passed off as a one time stupid action.

This is what happens when folks refuse to admit they made a mistake based on race.

Once he showed his key it should’ve been an apology and that would be the end of it.

Maybe instead of becoming annoyed, and refusing to put down his phone, and saying, after being asked, that he didn't know his room number, he should have just immediately shown security his key. This is what happens when folks refuse to admit that they didn't act responsibly.

Yes, you’d think that would work, wouldn’t you?

But this security guard and employers don’t want to admit that they’ve acted like racists, so they double down, and act stupid on top of acting racist.

(Crosses Doubletree off my list of places to stay. Undoubtedly not the only one doing so.)

This ain’t clickbait. It happened, and it’s pretty damn egregious.

The article doesn't say that and the video even shows him showing them his card with room number. It never fails that threads like this have people simply making things up.

I have to hope it's the sites attempt at increasing post counts as opposed to the claim of some that the site is full of racists.

According to the press release, Massey was told by the security guard that he was a security threat even after he showed his hotel key to prove he was a guest.
Looks like that didn't work out the way you think it should have.
