Good point.
In the Cracker Barrel case, it is my observation of CB's normal operations to sign in parties to be seated in their restaurants in the order they come considering the customer's request of non-smoking or smoking as well as the number of persons in the party according to the available seating. CB also sanely has a time cut-off at which they no longer take reserves to be served. Without such guidelines, they'd be serving all night. I think you'll see this policy will be used also to rightly vindicate CB and prove who the real culprits are....

Similar story. I did consulting for a small PR firm. They "did the PC thing" and hired a minority engineering firm to develop some prototypes for them. This made the PR firm's owner feel good, like he was helping out a disadvantaged bidness.

All of the engineers claimed to be African American (not black!), even the token white engineer said he was of African decent.

Now comes the good part. They failed to meet some milestones in the development process. The PR firm had a meeting and told them to get back on track, or they would not get the rest of the prototype money ($40k)- they had not met the project milestones.

2 weeks later, the minority engineering company sent a letter written by their lawyer that the PR firm must pay the remaining money or face a discrimination lawsuit.

The PR firm's owner just laughed and threw the letter away. The schedule was documented and signed - the engineers had missed the milestones - plain and simple.

It sucks the engineers pulled the race-card.

Jesse and Al have taught thousands of minorities these tactics of coercion!

They had a guy from some Hispanic group on the O'Reilly Factor tonight. Not only does his group want Issel fired, but they want the Nuggets orginization to hire more Hispanics and do more work with Hispanic media.

As I watched this, I turned to my wife, and said this guy sounds like Jesse Jackson.

It's outragious. The white radical leftist America hating scum in America are the beasts who have perpetrated this anti white euro policy in America. It is the white radical leftist America Hating scum in America who prop up Jessie Jackson (who admitted he spit in white people's food) and follows him around even when he goes to the bathroom. The white radical leftist America hating scum give Jackson all the necessary media attention he needs to shake down corporations to the tune of billions of dollars every year..Yes...every year..Remember those four blacks who complained that they were served cold pancakes at Denny's..look at what Denny's ended up having to give them...Whites of course had to step aside.

And now, the big fight is over which of the preferred racial groups, the latino or blacks, will get the biggest share of the racial spoil system..

Remember the white radical leftist america hating scum in America has fought to keep our borders wide open allowing an invasion of millions of illegal mexicans and other third world America hating scum to cross our border.. All these illegals are entitled to affirmative action special treatment over native born Whites for govt hiring, for govt welfare handouts, for govt contracts, and for public university school admissions. And just let some private business try to fire an affirmative action employee and all hell breaks loose from the white radical leftist america hating scum in America. <P.

If it didn't use up space I'd reprint #52 here:

Every absurd law we have, every piece of favoritism that DOES exist in business and the workplace, was passed by a bunch of mostly white guys trying to pimp themselves to a constituency. A constituency that has by this time learned they can get more simply by threatening their neighbors or whining to the wimps we continue to elect. A constituency that has the media firmly on their side because the media both grew up watching the process work and is also stroking a constituency (liberals and self interest groups such as MALDEF et al).

Only ourselves to blame - but it still sucks.

I would like to add that this is a result of the baby boomers and greatest generations. I believe that Gen X and Y are not going to be so intimidated because they grew up from infancy under "diversity" and will be far less inclined to suffer the "White Guilt" of the previous generations.

Issels comment was totally out of line.

I disagree, he didn't start it for one, it was the other guy taunting him first. Those jerks who call themselves fans who over-drink and shout out comments know full well they are likely to have something shouted back. The "fan" should be banned from attending a certain number of games too because he did start the trouble.

Has anyone here read a book called "The Belle Curve"? Anyone who travels outside of this country and spends five months in, say, Africa or the Phillipines or Afganistan et.al. knows that not every one is the same. You have to be brain washed to believe everyone is the same.

Yes you are right. Here where I live discrimination is completely legal as long as it's discrimination for Spanish speakers from Mexico. Speaking English can't be a job requirement but they actually can post as a job requirement that Spanish fluency is required. It's even legal to deny blacks jobs because they aren't as fluent in Spanish as someone from Mexico is. We had a Cuban boss try to have English spoken at our work place and they accused him of being a racist.

I don't even have a problem with Issel responding. I do have an issue with him using the guy's ethnicity in a derisive and derogatory manner.

The media probably would not have picked up on him calling someone white trash but it is equally reprehensible.

Bowman yelled: "Issel, you suck!" He said the coach blew a mock kiss at him and replied, "Hey go buy another beer." At that point, Bowman said he was holding a beer in one hand and his coat in the other. It was his third beer for the night, he said. Bowman said he yelled "Aw, shut up!" That's when Issel replied, "you Mexican piece of s---." "He didn't need to go there," said Bowman, who is Hispanic. "He's a professional coach. He doesn't need to be taking out his anger on us.

However, it was fine for Bowman to take out his anger on Issel!!!

I have a suggestion -- someone may have already suggested it but I haven't read all the posts. The deck seems to be stacked against white men , but if your WIVES were in charge, you could be a company owned by women which checkmates, the prejudice against your white male owned company.

How right you are! A few years ago I needed to purchase a bunch of expensive equipment to gear up for a contract I had won. Got turned down for an SBA loan. Changed the company from a sole-proprietorship (me) to a S Corp (51% wife, 49% me). Sent wife with exact same business plan to a different bank. Bang, instant financing.
