"[She] discovered that the cream and other hair products meant for African Americans had been locked away behind glass shelves and were segregated from products for non-African Americans,'

"I was angry, sad, frustrated, and humiliated all at the same time. It was so emotional it's hard to describe. I know there is a lot of racism out there, but I have never been faced with it up close."

Nope its called inventory control

If the numbers show a specific product diapers more than another than,”Lock it up”.
If its used by blacks more than another sect than Oh well

Not the first something like this has happened. Seems cosmetics for blacks walk out the store a lot.

Kinda like the exam scores. When millions of exam scores are all telling us the same thing, perhaps it’s time to pay attention to the scores.

Yep. And they removed the active ingredient in Actifed that has now rendered it useless because of the meth heads. Used to be able to get a 100 tablet bottle without a prescription and without asking for it from behind the counter. Used to be my go-to for my allergies.

I truly despise 99.99999999999999% of this (last 2-3) generation!!

Yes, everything is “rayciss” to people like this, and they can hold opposing positions on issues because the “reason” is never really the reason, it’s just an excuse to try to guilt whites, put them on the defensive, and demand some kind of pay-off.

An example is when they howl to have flags and statues erased from the public square, because they’re reminders of past racism, but then put chains around the license plates of their cars. What could be more symbolic and more a reminder of past racism than chains? But it’s not that that flags and statues really bother them, it’s just one more way to try to exert power and try to instill guilt into whites.

I wish whites would stop being so gullible. If the left’s narrative prevailed, it would be as if no people in history were ever slaves except blacks in America, and no people ever were slaveholders except white people in America. Nevermind the rivers of blood shed by whites on behalf of black slaves. We’re still waiting for people in Africa to do as much, as slavery still exists there.

Welp, maybe it’s because tanisha feels entitled to items without paying for them. Blame your own “culture”, babe.

On a recent visit to California I went to Wal-Mart and saw that the entire hair care products section was segregated from the rest of the store by fencing and had its own cashier.

Guess who is going to be the sacrificial lamb here?

“The decision about which items are subject to additional in-store security is made on a store-by-store basis and often at the discretion of the store manager."

That’s like stores that lockup cigarettes (e.g., Costco) ... they HATE smokers and discriminate against smokers.

Never thought about the chain license plates. Never even contemplated that blacks are the ones driving around with those. But you know, it certainly fits the “always play the victim” mentality that has gone on for generations with “those people!” (and yes .. the perpetual racists need to be called out for what they are, and “those/you people” fits as long as the majority plays the “victim of honkies” card!)

Good point. In today’s politically correct climate of fear and thought crime, who really believes that a business like Walmart would choose to display/ protect their merchandise based on racism? It will never end, because the issue is never really the issue. It’s the inexorable push to “punish” (steal what productive, hard-working people, or even those with ancestors who were such, have acquired and own), in the name of “reparations”. My God, if we could even begin to add up all the money spent on “equality” (and that of outcome, not opportunity), not even counting the Civil War, it would take many lifetimes. Just think what real good could have been done.

Stores sometimes have security locks on electronic stuff, like Walgreens and CVS.

When I started my career in IT, I was a humble tech at a big box computer store. We got ripped off all the time, and it pissed us employees off no end.

One day the security lock alarm goes off in the laptop section and some dude comes striding out with a laptop stuffed down the front of his pants. It wasn't even subtle; there was this huge, rectangular bulge and a screaming alarm right behind him

Store policy was 'let it go, or YOU'RE in trouble'. The whole floor staff almost said 'screw it' and went sprinting after the guy, straight out the door. One of our guys had been a track star and ran this guy down and held him for the cops. Felt good. :-)

This is getting old now. Must these whining babies see racism everywhere?

It’s called loss prevention. Other items I regularly see locked up are baby formula, cosmetics, cartons of cigarettes, perfumes. You know, the items that are frequently stolen.

Don’t even worry about your semantics, in today’s Orwellian world, it’s a losing game with loaded dice, against whites. Just use whatever plain English is appropriate. Remember quite a few years ago when some guy almost (or did, I forget which) lost his job over his appropriate use of the word “niggardly”? That’s what we’re up against. The only way to win this game, the word game, for whites, is to not play. The left is trying to make it so that we don’t have even have certain words in the lexicon anymore, because they know that what you can’t express, you learn to never even think.

Some retailers simply stop carrying products they lose money on. Imagine the righteous indignation and lawsuits should that happen.

WM needs to put the stuff out in the open AND sell it at 10% below cost. The ones that aren’t stolen, I mean.

Natural hierarchy is expected everywhere throughout the animal kingdom... excepting humans of course.
