I'm glad there are still racist cops. The good ol boys are still looking out for us, guys. Being white has been enough but we've got the cops too, hey why not.

That is just sad... The kid was doing an exceptionally stupid purchase, especially because he is paying for college. But he didn't deserve to get arrested for it, life would have taught him the lesson eventually.

This kind of life lesson wouldn't have happened with a white kid. He would have been left alone to eventually declare bankruptcy because of stupidity.

Thank god that black kid got arrested, his financial future might have been saved!





"his financial future might have been saved!"

The saddest part of this story is a young black college student pissing away his money on a belt.

This is a perfect example why the high level of poverty continues in the minority community.



Wow, I don't even know what to say to this.

Look, not everyone got a lottery ticket for life. I know I haven't. I'll take every advantage I can get. Being white is one of them. I'd say being a young black man in 2013 is still a raw deal. I don't think things are really going to change with race and gender any time soon. It'll be a long time until these "issues" no longer mean anything to anyone.

Is being proud of my whiteness a crime? And when was a "WASP" something to be bad about. I didn't commit other peoples' crimes. I love my fucking heritage.

It's fucking hilarious, I was just given read-only access to this forum because I'm proud of being white. This is the kind of oppression I'm talking about. Fuck you for making me want to hate who I am. My heritage is strong and so are my white brothers.

Replace everything in that with "hispanic" or "african-american" and the entire thing changes.

Let's not be proud of our ancestors.

I usually don't think lawsuits are the answer to these problems.  I also happen to be white, so I really have nothing personally to gain by supporting this guy.  But man, I hope he sues the fuck out of them.  I think somewhere in the mid 6-figures ($500K+) would be an appropriate settlement, considering the financial status of the defendant.  It won't really hurt Barney's or even be a blip on their quarterly report, but I think it would send a message that this type of discrimination is complete fucking bullshit and allow the defendant to move on with his life.  "Oh no, you can't possibly afford our products, you are clearly a nigger from the hood.  Please wait here while we call the police.  Is that cash?  Fuck you, drug dealer."  That's Barney's position, like it or not, and there is no possible cogent defense of what they did nor what the police did.  I want to see these type of people made an example of, because in my mind, they are the most perfect example of what is wrong with this country.  Any type of race based discrimination needs to be stamped out, specifically by stamping on the throats of racists.

Who the fuck spends $350 on a belt that is just starting college?

Pissing away money is a huge part of poverty, there are cultural differences in financial responsibility.

Proud?  Fine.  You can trumpet the achievments of your forebears and I would be so happy to honor them.  I don't know your background, but chances are your ancestors achieved great things.  But does that make you think that you are superior to other races?  Not fine.  If you think whatever you ancestors did makes you, personally, superior to other people, then you are one of the most disgusting people I have ever met.

Two things.

1) That isn't even close to the saddest thing in the article, the saddest thing is what the article is about
2) You have zero idea whether this kid lives in poverty or comes from an impoverished background. I wouldn't spend $350 on a belt, but I've spent a lot more money on non-essential goods and services, as a college student working a part-time job, and it isn't damning me to poverty.

Debt isn't a race related thing a lot of people spend their lives in debt because that's the way it works and if you had to go on a train with people giving you judgmental eyes and nervous stares you'd probably stick to the hood too.
