Georgia Couple Shocked Over Racial Slur on Valet Ticket
ABC News ^ | Jan 4, 2014 | Gillian Mohney

A Georgia couple was shocked and disgusted to find a racial slur scrawled on a valet ticket after a night out at a local restaurant.

After Candea and Sam Aarons had dinner at the Spondivits restaurant in East Point, Ga., on New Year’s Day, they found that the valet tag still affixed to their key chain had the phrase “jungle fever” written on one side.

The phrase is a racial slur for an interracial couple.

I know an interracial couple. She complains about being treated terribly. When pressed, I find out it’s the Black women who are the worst bout giving them a hard time.

Hoax or annoying whiners. Either way, it’s not worth anyone’s time.

Well, it (almost) worked for the sodomites, so it was worth a try.

The couple should be asked what the valet should have put down on that card to identify themselves.

No matter what was put down they would have taken offense.

LOL. Someone (anonymous poster) at the Daily Mail thinks the valet was jealous because the woman was so beautiful...

Yup, bingo; I posted before reading that line and my guess was still right! I have a lot of experience in this area.

I agree, the sleazy libs will do and say anything to keep one of their phoney narratives alive.

It's only worthy of national attention if you can deceive your readers to believe this was White Racism.

And of course the couple isn't satisfied with an apology.

Although the man has lost his job, Candea thinks it is not enough. The couple are now seeking the aid of attorneys.

I'm sure this couple would have been equally offended if Ebony & Ivory had been used.

Years ago, I went to a Boston Market with my girlfriend (who was black), and I could hear the employees (all black) joking about my "jungle fever". They were t even remotely discreet about it.

The point being that the expression "jungle fever" is a) not a "racial slur" and b) predominantly known to, and used by, black people.

Not surprised then, that the valet in this case was black.

I thought “Jungle Fever” was a song?

Jungle Fever = “you can’t possibly love that person, it can only be that you are together for the taboo thrill of sex with a person of another race...especially black and white”

Yes, a slur and insulting.

Like I said, most whites don’t know what it means, however, blacks are usually the ones who use the term - and derogatorily.

Why is this stupid story worthy of national/international attention?

Because the MSM / Government Media complex has to keep the sheeple distracted since it no longer covers actual news like the Obamacare debacle, the IRS scandal, or the NSA abuse of power.

We’re in the midst of a “bigoted message scrawled on receipts” repeat.

Remember the black church arson hoax from the 1990’s? Then it was the “bigoted message scrawled on walls in colleges” scam. I guess the racists and bigots have retreated to writing things on scraps of paper now.

As it has been pointed out, since the race of the valet was not mentioned, it is almost certainly black. However, the media won’t let that get in the way of another blame whitey frenzy.

That’s because we racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic, etc. folk in flyover country aren’t behaving in accordance with the Left’s stereotypes, and nothing must be allowed to stop the advancement of the narrative.

(I think the whole story is baloney, too.)
