Cell phone video and a Racist's Christmas rant!
Racists need to remember cell phones have video cameras now.
http://heavy.com/news/2016/12/louisv...-hispanic-ban/
This happened yesterday I local to me. Seems two Hispanic women were shopping. When at the checkout counter one brought up another item to place into cart.
The (ranting) woman is now banned from the Mall for life and may be sued!

When out shopping today then the story hit. Could hear people talking about it and ask someone I knew WTF was going on. Been a day of awaking after hearing the many many racists speaking freely in support of the crazy one. Just seems they are not afraid anymore!!!!

It's back.
Never left, of course, but it's back big time. Sad but true, people will suffer, people will die. Only question is how far back will we go, We may go all the way to legal segregation and jim crow, after the race war....

Upon watching this video my biggest sorry is that nobody spoke up. Had I been there this would have ended differently.
I have no issues with speaking out against ignorance and hate.

With the number of people that pack heat out there, it's best not to directly confront a psycho such as this. Report it to Security or better yet Law Enforcement and let them handle it. I think a charge of disturbing the peace would be warranted in this case.
I have no doubt that Trump would condemn shit like this.

No, I will not spend my life afraid to speak out when someone really needs to speak out.

As much as I think people should speak up.... I understand why they don't.
A person who goes off on a public rant like that is unstable and it's hard to tell what they would do if someone spoke up.
Would speaking up help diffuse the situation or escalate it?

Escalates it by giving them an audience in my opinion.
But of course this is inconsiderate to the aggrieved party.
So it's a lose lose.

The cashier tried to no avail. The police stated they were glad it didn't escalate in to a shouting match or worst a physical one.
The store has reached out to the two Hispanic shoppers with a reimbursement and apology. There is a very large transplanted Cuban community in the area of the Mall and the belief is the women were from there.
Not sure about other parts of this country but racist speech seems to be greatly on the increase. Before the election but more so now.
