You need an attitude adjustment. They also have a right to make purchases with their own money. As a lead actor in a long-running HBO series, he probably earns more than half the members of FR. I know his income is much, much more than mine. But no employee at Macy’s would ever dream of telling me what they thought I could or could not afford, because I’m white. This was completely uncalled for, and I hope he sues that store into oblivion.

I bet I could dress you up so that no department store clerk would let you within 20 feet of a jewelry counter.

The question is not what the color of his skin was, but what was he wearing, had he bathed in the last week, and how was he acting?

He is assuming it was because he was black, but I'm betting there were a lot of other factors involved.
