If the story is accurate (and it sure looks like it is), I hope he wins. Big.

This type of real racism gives the libs cover for using the race card. Not only that, it is just plain WRONG.

Will also give him kudos for not buying a knock off or a “discounted” real one out of a van.

I don’t like the police state questioning what a free citizen buys. This is racism.

But, little Trayon looks just devastated in that picture. His sad, unsmiling face just says “shattered”. He will need millions for therapy. He’ll neva be able to put on a belt again without ... smiling from ear to ear about his lottery winnings.

Also, this young man rates about a 0 out of 10 on the thug-o-meter...

Your example has nothing to do with ‘Tray-on’.

This is not even remotely similar to this guy’s situation.

Run around town and deliberately attempt to get hassled by the cops.

You have some information that this guy was "running around town and deliberately attempting to get hassled by the cops?" If so, please do post your links.

When I was his age, I spent half my money on women and booze, and I just wasted the rest of it.

Or as Mets' closer Tug McGraw said, when asked what he'd do with his World Series bonus, "I'll spend most of it on wine, women and song. The rest, I'll probably piss away."

That is assuming the kid is telling the truth.

Do you think I’m going to do your work for you just because you’re a left wing nut case?

(Just kidding about the nut thing.)

When’s the last time you bought a belt that cost $350?

A (timing) belt for my Mercedes wouldn’t cost that much!

We are all suspects to an ever increasingly paranoid government.

His pants are probably worn around his ankles anyway.

“Belt? Belt? I don’ need no f—king belt!”

Racism my Aunt Minnie’s ass.

When a 19 year-old punk with a hoodie buys a $350 belt he deserves to be hassled. Where did he get the money?

No problem.

He should have bought the belt in Walmart.

Look them up yourself.

I’m getting sick and tired of looking up the history on perps.

Aha!

But the kid has an earring.

Probably covered with tats under that hoodie.

For an item that is registered it’s a different story. I’m one of those cranks that got PO’d whenever the clerk at Radio Shack demanded my name & address every time I bought a battery.

Thugs with that kind of money don’t use debit cards (or banks).
