"[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."

Funny how all of us know why this happened, but certain folks who obviously are not destined for rocket science are totally befuddled.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Ugh.

“Other items I regularly see locked up are baby formula,”

Hating babies by locking up their food so they starve is genocide.

Whitey be’s so STUPIT, lockin’ up da free sh*t - wassup widdat??

I guess she’d prefer a “food desert” created when the clientelle shoplift a store blind and the proprietors give up and go home.

I went to buy a few tooth brushes at RiteAid, and had to spend 10 minutes trying to find someone who had a key. Can I get in on the lawsuit? I mean, this is obviously an affront to anyone with teeth.

Our Walgreens locks up Crown Royal and Don Julia.

Really annoying. Never realized how racist this is! Lol

Gloria Allred is a fake scumbag lowlife who feeds on idiots. I saw this on TV and nearly puked at how fake it all seemed and how coached her client was.....#unfrakinreal

So they have to separate the “Man Tan,” from the "Male Pale,"and the "Dixie Peach?"

[Pearls Before Swine]

Cry “Racism!” and let loose the dogs of war.

With apologies to Wm. Shakespeare.

Remember when Walmart employees at a store in Montreal voted the unionize? The store was closed permanently the next day.

That’s how to handle stupid people.

[Yaelle]

Wait a sec. Then why in some neighborhoods are the cosmetic aisles in target out in the open, and in “other hoods” they are separate where you have to enter a doorway watched by an employee To get into those aisles filled with tiny expensive items?? Huh???

[ronniesgal]

my grocer locks up baby formula which is pretty weird to me.
so is that a reason for young moms to get a lawyer??

[polymuser]

Lots of stores now must lock up makeup and spray paint, too.

[Alas Babylon!]

Hit it!!!

[17th Miss Regt]

...the entire hair care products section was segregated from the rest of the store by fencing and had its own cashier.

Was it in the back of the store?

[Dr. Sivana]

Tney lock up razor blades too. Is that racist?

I don't think they lock up the "bump-fighter" razor blades, so it all evens out.

T guess Maxine Waters is such a “hot head” coz’ she wears a wig, then plunks a cowboy hat on top of that.

[Thank You Rush]

“”Many CVS pharmacies lock up the Sudafed “”

I think all products of that nature are locked up inside the pharmacy and for the reason you stated. There are rows of them in the pharmacy I go to. I believe they require ID and a signature to purchase.

That’s why I write the comments the way I do. I have been called a “racist” and other cute little meaningless words far too many times when all I did was disagree with the great african king, 0bama’s politics! I just don’t care what they call me anymore if that makes them feel better about their sorry selves that I just double down and make certain that they hate me!
