    What a joke! Any guy who intentionally loiters in a store should be followed. And any guy talking out loud ... should also be followed.

    99.99% of people who go into a store have a purpose ... and that's to make a purchase and not act in a way that would draw suspicion whether you were black, white, Hispanic, Asian.

    Same old, same old ...... let's try to keep alive that he's an oppressed minority. Did he end up buying anything? Or was he just wanting to use social media to try to make a (bogus) point? And what does he do ... replay the same two clips over and over and over.

    Racial stereotypes exist for a reason. No one is following asians around stores. Its not like these stereotypes are being made up with no basis in reality. Its hard to fault a store owner who has likely been robbed, and shoplifted by black people at a disproportional rate for wanting to protect herself. You dont like the stereotype then deal with your own shit, in your own community, dont blame other people for putting 2 and 2 together. Plus this idiot appears to be walking around the store aimlessly what does he expect?

    There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved....

    Jesse's being a bit naive. It isn't blacks who are mowing down school children or tossing bombs into crowds or blowing up Federal buildings.

    You really want to compare the violent crime rate of black people to whites? This could be one of the stupidest posts ive ever seen.

    If the owner of a store in 'Merica is following an asian kid around its most likely because he wants the kid to figure out his taxes for him. :D
