“Golf has rules and Etiquette.”

That’s racist.

“What rule was the women violating? “

---

The “ common courtesy” rule,like not cutting in line at the bank or sneezing in someone’s face——the rules of a civilized society.

Some people think that they can patronize a business and then make up their own rules. When a customer is engaging in commerce with a business, there is, at the very least, an implied contract—if not a formal one—that the patron(s) will abide by the company's policies on etiquette and protocol while the patron is on company property.

Now if the company (a golf course in this instance) failed to delineate their policies regarding proper course etiquette, then that is the company's fault—despite the fact that a different patron knew what proper course etiquette entailed...

They were slow becuz they couldn't help but admire and comment on the fashion show...

At starbucks the two black people refused to make a purchase in a store that had a sign that said you need to make a purchase to stay in it. *************
Didn’t know that. Thanks for the post.

You're welcome. The Media likes to hide things like that cause they take away from their waycism narrative . In a random act of journalism UPI reported it (no one else did)

A 5-some of plus-sized women on a golf course.

Worst.
Nightmare.
Ever.
***************************************************
And I’m betting that all five were duffers who were constantly looking for lost balls. A nightmare indeed.

Take out a smartphone
Start taking video
After a plausible time, yell a warning to the inconsiderate golfers and proceed to play your shot
Keep video on
Proceed to play next shot and when closer to the group verbalize golf etiquette by either instructing group to pick up the pace or letting the golfers behind you to play through
Call cops only if threatened

[sargon]

Many neophyte golfers who are not playing with an experienced player—as I suspect these women were—do not educate themselves regarding widely accepted (but subtle) standards on golf course etiquette, and may very well not have known they were violating the decorum of standard play.

Any time one or more noobs visit a golf course to play a round—and are unaccompanied by an experienced player—it is incumbent on course management to review proper course etiquette with them.

This incident could very well be the course management's fault. I'm saying this (of course) without having read the entire article...

You must not understand Ebonics Math, where 5 WoC(Women of Color) are counted as a Foursome. /s

Most golf courses have written/displayed rules for the pace of play. Many have course rangers that are charged with keeping the pace up. If you fall behind the group ahead of you, you can be asked to sit it out and let 1-2 groups behind play through.Slow play is the bane of golfers everywhere.

[Gargantua]

Firing squad. This cannot be allowed to stand.

[Gargantua]

"That’s racist."

So are ghettopotami with golf clubs, apparently.

LMAO

[VastRWCon]

Common courtesy for starters

[Bonemaker]

I love Far Side type humor!😁

[Bonemaker]

It’s almost erotic!!

[DoodleDawg]

Common courtesy for starters

And how was that not displayed? Did they refuse to allow the party complaining to play through? Were they loud and boisterous when the complaining party tried to putt? What?

And did they refuse to allow a faster group to play through?

And what "common courtesy" were they refusing to display?

[DoodleDawg]

They were slowing things down at a golf course. That infringes on the rights of others. They should know better.

Did they refuse to allow a faster party to play through?
