malanee Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 I'm in CVS standing in line and this Black lady cuts in front of me -so I tell her I think I'm next in line. She turns around and says "I'm always having trouble with you people." So I say "My people? You mean short people?" She was not amused! She started going off on me and commiserating with the black cashier about "those people." Then she basically said I better watch out because she was going to kick my a$$! How sad is that? I can't believe there are people like that in this world! And she was a well dressed professional woman! It's easy to see how stereotypes are built.

I don't see why people just can't get along. And Malanee why are trying to start shit with MY people! I am going to have to have a serious talk with you at modern about the way how you need to start treating people better, especially MY peeps yo! I really hate it when you WHITE folks try and progress in the lines at supermarkets and stores and think there is nothing wrong with it. Well Missy!! There is, my people have been stuck at the end of the lines, the back of busses and had to use the bathrooms that were outside for way to long, you need to step your white ass around and let my people through! Pay back is a bitch, even though I was never affected by slavery or segregation, I am now going to take it out on you, and demand payment for my ancestors that were brought over to america from Famine and disease stricken Africa. And even though MY people had to suffer 200 years of slavery, now have the same opportunities as everyone else, where as those that are still in Africa are being flushed out by civil wars, disease, Famine, and corruption. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe there are people like that in this world! And she was a well dressed professional woman! It's easy to see how stereotypes are built. Well, believe it ruth. These days, the shit is always hitting the fan whether you like it or not. When i'm in school(maryland institute college of art in Bmore), almost everyday I run into someone who feels like they need to make fun of my ethnicity. For example, when I was standing in line@ the rite aid, the security gaurd looks at me and says to a customer in front of me " Oh yeah, my favorite commercial is da one Lipton Brisk joint wit bruce lee in it. Shit's off the chain!" He probably thought I was dumb and wouldnt catch on to his joke. The customer and the cashier started laughing. That really upset me. Even the little kids from the local elementary school have big mouths. I would be walking to my apt and one of them would say " whatup bruce lee?!" Or "hey it's jackie chan!" The worse is when they assume that i'm of chinese descent, and they start mocking the chinese language. Anyway, you get my point. People can be full of suck.

I'm lucky this is the first time I've had to deal with something like this directed at me. I dated a Black guy for 4 years and he had to deal with that stuff all the time. He even got arrested once. Of course, they let him go as soon as they got back to the station because they had nothing to charge him with. I guess ignorance and prejudice know no color lines.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!! I thought you were white. Anyway... Malanee..sorry that you had to run across rude and ignorant people like that. I've never experienced such rudeness and when I do I'll just ignore and won't stoop to their level by going off on them.
