Double standard. Rationalize it anyway you want, it's still racist. /shrug/

No business wants to be branded as racist and on top of it seen as if you are someone hiring a bunch of morons who cant handle a difficult customer.
I am talking about the "Host" being a republican/conservative.

It's racist. Period. Get over it.

I am saying that that the host was just an instrument of racism. Black people have been instruments of racism for centuries. People have always put their perceived self interest above group interest. I don't think the host was a racist. If the host were white, yes, I would think they may have a greater probability to being a racist too.

If the host were half the whites commenting on this topic.....I would say they were complicit in the racism. Think about that, dissenters. If a black person came to you telling you something was racist....you would not be receptive just as you are not receptive to this. You are so unperceptive to black claims.....that it borders on racist. It represents NO respect for blacks. Yeah...there have been some fake claims.....but like I said....there have been many people locked up and sent to prison for crimes they did not commit, only to be exonerated years or decades later. Does that discredit policing and the courts as much as incorrect or false claims discredits black claims of racism? There has been a 300 plus years of evidence of white racism against blacks.....and POOF.....just like that....it was gone.

Wow....6 years ago is a long time. I guess everyone involved is now dead and buried.....like slaves and slave owners huh? Those were the only incident that they talked about....there were more. Again, the assumption is that EVERY incident is reported. Like I said, many black people are not going to fight the battle. Many feel that if a white person does not want their care, as a nurse, they don't want to care for them either. If its not cost the black person anything, like money or opportunity, they are not going to make a stink about looking after someone who does not want them to look after them. Like I said, I can't use my life to prove anything about the big picture, but I know Africans who do in home health care....and many have shared with me the racism of the older white people. One of my friends told me that an elderly women asked her daughter "Is that N166er still out their"? My reaction was to laugh. He laughed too while telling me. She is almost dead..probably dead now. Not a threat.

People like you need a way to caste aspersion on the truth. Hmmmm....what to do what to do.....hmmmm......eureka.......lets try to make them feel guilty for speaking truth by associating a demeaning term to it....like VICTIMHOOD.

Yeah....when you can't call something a lie......you got to call it something else with negative connotations in hopes it will then be seen as a lie....lol.

What's not receptive about this. It's either true or it's not. If it's true they did the right thing sacking the POS host and manager. I'm not really jumping all over it because of the Chipotle incident. It's just incredible at first glance that they'd do something so stupid but just because restaurant fires someone doesn't mean anything either. Restaurants are so paranoid of being perceived as racist they do just fire people for spurious complaints as well.

That's not really the point though. The point is you think it's a host's job to tell blacks they need to sit in the colored section. Christ. Talk about being your worst enemy.
