If this story is true, then all I can say is that the customer had to be a great tipper. Why else would the customer have the power or pull to keep blacks from sitting near him. I am pretty sure that the customer is not a racist though and that there is really some OTHER reason than race. Maybe he just wants to sit near people with the same values and from two parent homes and good schools and he KNOWS that all the blacks in that area don't meet that criteria, by having personally met them all.

SMH.

Black people need not to frequent these restaurants with their trash food anyway. Let them have it and all the health problems that come with it.

Here should be the extent of the training:

Miss, oh miss, I can’t sit near black people.

GFY

Training done

Everybody and EVERYTHING is RACIST. If you just accept that, you will sleep better at night.

That is some click bait garbage if I have ever read some. Employee fired...fake employee? If anything it was some loser employee with a racist agenda. The table was reserved.

But it worked for the website. They'll get a bunch of hits off this.

Seriously???

Great tipper or not, he was wrong.

The only time I don't want to sit near people no matter what color is if they have young kids with them. When I'm out for dinner I like it to be somewhat quiet.

So that wasn’t a racist incident? Then what was it?

That particular BWW screwed the pooch on that one for sure. At least the racist customer was banned, and the manager got fired.

Yup. And if a Jew skimmed news articles looking for a minor incident of antisemitism and posted about it here, the very people who are accusing everybody and everything of racism would tell the Jew to stop playing the victim card.

Oh, the hypocrisy.
