So much 'entertainment' going on in the world that I seem to miss.

It was the slap heard around the world.

A viral video showed a woman in a Phoenix convenience store slap another woman, who is white, for berating her with racist language and grabbing her.

Here's a little longer version. I wish the videographer would shut up so you could actually hear the conversation.

In this longer version, she states she's the manager of the store.

I don't know what that woman at the register was doing when she was ordered by the manager to leave (in an offensive say, I get that) but it may well have been something that is a legit reason to ask a customer to leave.

Didn't the husband tell the news she isn't the manager and has a severe mental illness.

Her illness seems to be that she doesn't like darker-skinned people.
