I bet he just wanted some of his tootsie roll. ;o


Was displaying the classic signs of a shoplifter. IE walking around a lot not picking up anything.

there was a story of some guy getting followed around a mattress store, like he was actually going to steal a mattress

It's kind of refreshing to see this dudes reaction. He understands the ignorance in the old mans actions and sees the humor in it. I have to admit, I laughed with him and then realized...damn, that would have enfuriated me. Racism is a bitch.

He should have another black person come in after him and watch the man struggle to decide which one needs to be watched. Then one by one add more and more black people until he panics and hits his ignorant limit break.

idk what happened before the video started, like if the guy literally started watching when he came in, if he does it with everyone else that comes in, etc. (sounded like a lot of people went in and out throughout the video though) but it wouldn't surprise me if it were just a grumpy old man that remembers the days before the 60s

He belongs in the cotton field not the store. Of course he will be followed.

On a serious note I've wandered aimlessly around stores with hands in my pockets and noone ever followed me. Maybe it's because I always go to Walmart.

i would follow a guy around who was not shopping, and talking to himself.
how is that not suspicious.

What if he was only searching for the kool aid isle...

When I go into a shop I don't pick every single item up. I just look until I see something I might like to buy.

The letter b, which represents blacks, was only used once in your post. Blacks need more representation in America!!!!11!!
