Racist or wise??
Well what did they ask her? “Where’s the arugula, tubby?”
Did they ask her for a mop up on aisle 3?
It won't stop a bullet...
From the article: “We’ve all been known to make varying assumptions about other people based on existing stereotypes.”
So does that mean we should blame the media and those leftists that put out movies and TV shows? That seems to be where a lot of the stereotypes originate or get reinforced.
And if they didn’t ask? We’ll that’s racist.
Mental cases have delusions.
Her original reaction: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3238249/posts
Conflicts greatly with her People mag interview!
I was asked for help at Walmart just the other day. It wasn’t because of the color of my skin but the color of my shirt.
Ooops... I forgot, unlike Walmart, Target is a democrat store (which is why I NEVER go there). So, maybe Michelle has a point.
And to Michelle 0bama, Shut up. Just shut up now and forever. You have nothing to add to anything that will help anyone. Close your toxic mouth. Please.
A woman asked her if she could reach something on a shelf for her. I have been asked that myself and have accommodated without any racial incident. Even the abominable snowman could reach the top of the Christmas tree to put the star on and he was white too!
I say BS to that .. no way anyone would get to her with all the SS around her ... made up story.
Judas Priest, I have been asked for help because I dress like a modest responsible person, am I supposed to scream sexism? Prejudice against blonds?
I get asked for assistance a lot. In various places. Depending on the circumstance, I either politely reply that “Sorry, I don’t work here” or if possible I take the opportunity to help, figuring maybe I can make someone’s day brighter.
But then, I don’t go through life looking for reasons to stand on a soapbox, rend my garments and shriek “I’m offended!”
Sheesh, what a rinky-dink version of “don’t you know who I am?”...
Now, I did not mind helping, but am not predisposed to with a culture that I know would likely give me the finger would I ask them for help. There are few negros here, so I figure she had to ask me or wait a long time or do it herself.
ol’ “platau-ass” is always whining or bitching about something.
She’s got the Diana ross syndrome, “How dare you look me in the eye”.
“Don’t you know who I am?”. Yeah, I know who you are, and what you are...a race-baiter, and a white hater.
good grief I’ve gone into multiple stores in my lifetime and had people ask me for help thinking I work there.... just depends on how you’re dressed .....you dress grubby out on the street and people think you’re homeless
Nice find!
No one knew that was me. Because a woman actually walked up to me, right? I was in the detergent aisle, and she said I kid you not she said, Excuse me, I just have to ask you something. And I thought, Oh, covers blown. She said, Can you reach on that shelf and hand me the detergent? I kid you not. And the only thing she said I reached up, because she was short, and I reached up, pulled it down. She said, Well, you didnt have to make it look so easy. That was my interaction. I felt so good.
****
So race had NOTHING to do with it.
If anything, Barry and Michelle got scholarships, accepted into Ivy League schools with, at least for Zero, a “C” college average. Jobs. Elected President without qualifications...
Not seeing how they aren’t the big winners of the race game.
