'Whites Only' Barber

A practical move..

So, by your grade school logic, a barber in monoracial socities, such as Europe, where there are no blacks and very, very few orientals, is not a barber because he does not cut blacks or orientals' hair.

Keep digging the hole for yourself.

By my logic, if they are not capable of cutting chinese hair, they are not real barbers. Maybe their clientele happens not to have any chinese, but to put a whites only sign which excludes chinese because he is incapable of cutting their hair means he is not much of a barber.

How about Asian hair? Hispanic hair?...Maybe he should say "Straight hair only"...

Then he'd have homosexuals protesting...

New sign = "Straights ONLY (Hair, that is)"

"People, especially your black people are not very broadminded" Your black people, eh? Now, your black people...they're good at dancing, basketball, and other things like that. Your white people...they're good at being executives and stuff like that you know. It's like your jews. They're good at numbers and banking. And your orientals? Well, they can run a good restaurant or laundry.

You done did that purty good.

Just plainly state I don't do black haircuts. You don't have to say whites only," Ellis Banks says. Barber Ron Landry tells KATC, "It's a racial sign. It makes a statement. I don't like it."

I'd post a sign that read: "Black customers must sit in the back of the shop."

And every last one of them knows Kung Fu.

it was apparent the lady never had any Long Island girls true to the 'big hair' team ;o)

Oh, so you're a member of the big hair team, too? :-)

I know what you mean - there isn't a salon that can cut my hair, either. I found one or two hairdressers years and years ago - who had the same type of hair so they knew what to do with mine. But other salons give cuts intended for thin, straight hair, and mine just does not lie that way. Even now that I'm older and my hair is not as thick, it still won't behave. ;-)
