Thread: Racists

    Racists

    http://www.cnn.com/2016/08/22/us/lat...inkId=27905995

    I have a strong dislike for them.

    (CNN) A community in Virginia has rallied around a Latina waitress after she received a racist note in lieu of a tip last week.
    Sadie Elledge, 18, said she immediately felt uncomfortable when a couple came into Jess' Lunch in downtown Harrisonburg last week.

    "They wouldn't talk to me. They would just nod their heads," Elledge told CNN affilaite WHSV.
    After she rang up the couple for two gyros, drinks and a Greek salad, they signed the receipt and quickly left the restaurant.
    Elledge wasn't surprised that the couple didn't leave her a tip -- that happens sometimes. But the four words they'd written in its place shocked her:
    "We only tip citizens."

    IMO, this is what Trumpism has begotten.

    They're idiots. I have a feeling they were idiots long before Trump's run for office. (I'm still not a Trump supporter, however).

    Well, I totally disagree with what they did and don't condone it and would never do it. But I'm not sure this is racism as much as it is about illegal immigration.

    Another story I read about it the title used the word 'xenophobic' as opposed to racism.

    Yep. And illegal immigration was a hot topic long before Trump.

    Maybe. But Trumpism brought them out of the closet.

    Perhaps. But I still blame Trumpism and blind Americanism.

    Maybe so. But it still ain't racism. And he's still the better choice than Hillary. :)

    Yes it is racism. And at this point I'd vote for my left foot than him (: because he's an idiot. But go ahead and continue defending them.

    Not racism at all. That's one of the problems with that word is people indiscriminately throw it around. It's clearly a statement about immigration. And something like this is nothing compared to the destructive policies of liberals that are taking this country more and more into ungodly areas such as LGBT issues, these issues related to children, abortion, etc, etc, etc. Trump is basically is un-politically correct, an idiot many times, has foot-in-mouth disease, talks before thinks, etc, etc, etc, but he's nothing compared to the destructive liberal mindset. Since you feel this way hopefully you would not vote at all as opposed to siding with liberal policies, but IMO not to vote at all is still a vote for Hillary and destructive liberalism because the non-vote did nothing to stop the liberals from keeping the office.
