    No stores can ask for your receipt unless they suspected you of stealing. The funny part is that you din't even READ about this incident? They walked out of the store, and the manager FOLLOWED them and ACCUSED them of stealing the basketball. They SHOWED her the receipt, yet this idiot still CALLED the police. What gives??

    It have zero to do with the state. I don't doubt NIKE will have to issue a "reparation" of sorts to this family.

    I doubt she had ever gone after a white family, ask for a receipt and once shown accused them of stealing the item. Otherwise, she would have been FIRED from this store a long time ago.

    No, but you have to be one to be respected by typical Santa Monicans.

    I read Steve's posts w/ the impression that he's is no "country bumkin". Unless I am confusing Steve w/ someone else, he has lived in NYC, Chicago, LA and now New Mexico, suggesting considerable multicultural exposure. What triggers racism in otherwise intelligent people? Looking into the faces of those at Trump's recent rally in North Carolina, I see impairment per DMS-5:

    "About Mental Health Impairments
    Approximately one in four adults experience a mental health impairment. The DSM-5, the most recent version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), which is published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), provides diagnostic criteria for mental health impairments. According to the DSM-5, a mental health impairment is:

    • a mental disorder is a syndrome characterized by clinically significant disturbance in an individual's cognition, emotion regulation, or behavior that reflects a dysfunction in the psychological, biological, or developmental processes underlying mental functioning. Mental disorders are usually associated with significant distress in social, occupational, or other important activities. An expectable or culturally approved response to a common stressor or loss, such as the death of a loved one, is not a mental disorder. Socially deviant behavior (e.g., political, religious, or sexual) and conflicts that are primarily between the individual and society are not mental disorders unless the deviance or conflict results from a dysfunction in the individual, as described above."

    If there's anyone here providing a negative view of Blacks - it ain't @Steve N.

    Of course not. And the dead giveaway was the fact that she offered no apology. That's because her racist a** had to leave with her tail tucked between her legs. She was hoping that the ball was stolen.

    There is one thing I've noticed after years of teaching - the most racist people I've met are the same ones who do nothing BUT talk about race. I've seen it from admins, people called in to lecture us at staff meetings, and (sadly) students. The stories I could tell you guys - *shrugs*

    Okay, occasionally you see these guys on message boards too.

    So I'm a racist because I don't see racism in an event that could have happened to anyone? And I've lived in Northern NJ, Puerto Rico, So Cal (Corona, not LA) El Paso, Vegas and now Las Cruces, NM.

    What appears to be happening, especially with a certain person who won't define what he says is a black profile, is that when there is so little white on black racism and the race hustlers need their racism fix, they'll invent racism where there is none.

    And if a black person just happens to have something happen to him/her when engaged with a white person and the left considers that to be racist for no other reason than just because, then what about these crime stats from the FBI:

    Charged offense: Total By Blacks Percentage
    Murder 9,468 5,025 53.1
    Rape 18,063 5,182 28.7
    Robbery 73,764 40,024 54.3
    Assault 302,941 101,513 33.5

    And it just keeps going on like that with the percentages waaaaay disproportionate to the population ratios. The numbers are even worse for people under 18 years old.

    Perhaps this is the profile Matt was talking about and it's no wonder he refused to tell me what it was.

    Remember guys, facts can't be racist.

    Lolol....in one post you said racism is when one race is superior/inferior to another, and here you are calling someone a racist when you have zero idea if race was an issue along with not a hint of superiority or inferiority. Man, you just make up racist crap as you go, don't you.

    So what is the profile for blacks?

    Frankly, I don't believe you are a racist deep inside, particularly as you meet St Peter at heaven's gate. But you and others have accused me of being totally crazy so what do I know?
