think about what you just said. Are you black? Can you possibly imagine walking into a restaurant with your significant other, being called a n*gger and told to get the frick out?

I am not black. However I find it hard to believe you are ok with spending your money with someone who hates you. Would you not rather know that the business who hates you because you are black? Damn there are a lot of places you can shop, why not shop where you are appreciated. If enough people did that then the racist guy would go out of business.

You just compared rude fast food workers to racism.

My comment was made to say that when I order at a fast food resturant and am waited on by a black person, and I receive poor service, I dont feel that the black person is being racist towards me because I am white. It is because they are a lazy dipwad who will probably never have a better job, because of their attitude.

I dont think it is because I am white, I think it because the employee is a lazy shithead

You answered your own question. They are inherently different.

Do you think that a black person can be racist? Or is that reserved for white people?

I am sorry that you and many other black people have to deal with this. I think things are better than they were 50 years ago and hopefully someday it will be a thing of the past. But probably not, because the world is full of assholes and no matter how many good white people there are, there will always be a few bad ones. And then the good ones get overlooked and the bad ones are the only ones that are relevant.

I am not looking to get into a tread war with you. So I will leave this alone now. My main point is this law would allow people to know if someone does not want their business, and shop accordingly.

Good luck to you cas4t. Hope you have a good day.

The point is you want to be treated the same as everyone else. You don't have to like me, just bake my fricking cake and let me pay for it.

Of course, but that's besides the point. Laws should not be dictated on "well, they can go shop somewhere else!!"

I understood that. My point was that your example was not a fair comparison to what is being discussed. It's not even the same concept.

of course they can and I know plenty myself. I fail to see your point.

I do see your point about how the customer should know if the business owner they are attempting to deal with is an a-hole, but in my experience, word of mouth does a pretty good job of that.

Also, I'm not black.

I hope you have a good day as well.
