Re: Things that be all racist n' sheit
I read somewhere that the SPLC has something like half a billion dollars.
There aren't nearly enough real dangerous and extremist groups in the US to justify that much money, so of course the extremist groups have to be made up. So basically, they go around reading sub reddits of people advocating for fathers in family court systems to label them women haters and take reports of "bias incidents" on college campuses. And just to be consistent, I think it's crap to call most of these kooky, left-wing Free Palestine groups anti semitic.

Re: Things that be all racist n' sheit
Well, I've always thought that businesses worrying about people coming in to use their restrooms is a bit much. Like I work in an office building and about a year ago they put combination locks on the first floor restrooms. I think maybe the second floor too.
No issue for me because I was given the combination. But c'mon. There was no problem with the restrooms.
Another thing: If I'm driving on the highway I might stop at an exit and go take a piss in a McDonald's restroom just because I need to take a piss. There are also times when I stop at McDonalds to get a couple of cheeseburgers. Can you guess what's going to happen to my attitude about McDonalds if I stop there one time just to take a piss and they hassle me?

And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Do you look like a drug or alchol addicted or mentally unstable derelict?
And Starbucks caters to a higher demographic than McDonalds.

Re: Things that be all racist n' sheit
Well, it's hard for me to put myself into the position because I think Starbucks coffee sucks so I never want to buy anything from Starbucks anyway. But if I DID like Starbucks coffee and DID just want to go into one on one occasion just to piss and they made an issue of it that would hack me off and they'd end up losing business.BDKJMU wrote:How many homeless are allowed to wonder into your office building?JohnStOnge wrote:Well, I've always thought that businesses worrying about people coming in to use their restrooms is a bit much.

2). My business has zero homeless population around it. I have other challenges that businesses in areas with homeless populations don’t have. Apples to oranges.
3). You continue to have zero sense of humor.

They insult him with really really bad words.
Portland News Link
A food cart owner accused of a racist attack on a customer earlier this week released two rambling videos Friday, defending himself, blaming fasting for the incident and the media for blowing it out of proportion, and saying he hopes to go back to Egypt, his home country.
He also talks about using the racial slur and dousing the woman, who is African American, in Sriracha sauce.
Islam R. El Masry, the owner of Small Pharoah's Egyptian and New Yorker Food at Southwest Fifth Avenue and Stark Street in downtown Portland, was arrested Wednesday after being filmed throwing a Gatorade bottle at customer Carlotta Washington.

Will Einstein's statues be the next to come down? Perhaps having his name taken off the med school named for him?
Will Einstein's statues be the next to come down? Perhaps having his name taken off the med school named for him?
Einstein, who died in 1955, describes the Chinese as "industrious, filthy, obtuse people," remarking how they "don't sit on benches while eating but squat like Europeans do when they relieve themselves out in the leafy woods."
They are "a peculiar herd-like nation," he writes, "often more like automatons than people."
"It would be a pity if these Chinese supplant all other races," he later adds. "For the likes of us the mere thought is unspeakably dreary."
Einstein does not reserve his racist remarks solely for the Chinese. After a journey up the Suez Canal, he reaches Port Said, Egypt, where he encounters what he describes as "screaming and gesticulating Levantines of every shade, who lunge at our ship. As if spewed from hell."
Visiting the port for a second time on his return trip, he comments on the "riff-raff," translated from a German word that, as Rosenkranz points out in the book's introduction, has a connotation of "vermin" and can be interpreted as xenophobic.
On a visit to Colombo in Sri Lanka, Einstein complains about the "rickshaw coolies" and describes the "natives" as "intrusive" and "primitive."
