South Jersey...what a surprise.

DaneCookfish puts his Mr. Microphone to good use.

Washington Township police and the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office are investigating the incident as a possible bias crime.

offensive, yes, worth losing your job over, yes.

crime? no

Sed WOT?!?!

* facepalm *

Stay classy, South Jersey.

Be Well.

Rob's in Jersey, ain't he?

Blackouts occasionally happen in retail stores.

I've wondered 101 Chairpoodle was up to.... this has his MO all over it.... if he kicked some babies and stole some cigs and beer on his way out.

Some one has to protect their children from all the lead-based paint in those Chinese goods. God knows they get more than enough of it in those paint chips at home.

Wal-Mart store in Washington Township

The Tea Party protest was suppose to be in DC. Wrong Washington, dipshit.

What are you supposed to do if you're a mulato?

This guy should have ordered all the white people to leave, he wouldn't have gotten in trouble for doing that.

I don't know if this is still true but in the bad old days if you had even one drop of black blood youw were considered black. A person could be like 1/8 black and he was considered black.

Uh-oh...likes like Rogers is at it again:

Well, everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day. I guess Rogers started early, lol!

Wow, deja vu!

Be Well.

it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out. was it just some random racist? or, was there a threat called in that somebody who was black was going to or had committed a crime in connection with the store?

it seems that there might be a logical explanation - but I think probably not. if there is not explanation, fire the racist and move along...

Can you do that with all the hispanics? Man just think how short the lines would be if you worked for INS.

da ebil honky's at Wa Mart.

did they leave?

Actualy the real question is did he order them or simply axe them to go?

I bet Wal-Mart pays off alot more of the blacks for their trouble then were actually in the store.

CHA! CHING! I say.

Thinking the same thing...

Class action lawsuits, millions of dollars at stake. Simple apologies no longer suffice!

I wonder if any started to leave.

Okay, about this prank. I learned about this at H2K.

Most stores have an extension on their in-house PBX which pipes to the PA.

So once you know what that extension is, you can call the store, ask some witless employee to transfer you to that extension, and you've got access to the store PA from outside the store.

All it takes is a tiny bit of social engineering. (You can get the extension of the PA system by social engineering too.)

At H2K, they called a K-Mart, posed as a manager from another store having problems with their intercom, and asked that manager if their intercom was also on extension 5000 (apparently it's usually on 5000). Then they called back, transferred around a few times, until they got somebody in the shoe dept. to transfer them to x5000.

Then they announced that everything in aisle 12 was free. :)

Obviously, the potential for abuse here is great. I'm tempted to not even post this information. If this site has moderators I won't mind if you blackhole this one.

Poor little WAL*MART is probably the victim here. Let's see those staunch right-wing hearts bleed for them...

Snoof or it could have been an instore employee with a poor sense of humor. One of my friends worked in the winn-dixie deli and he announced over the intercom christ, christ party of twelve your platter is ready. Yeah he didn't keep that job long but it was fun while it lasted.

Obviously, a black person made the announcement hoping for a big payout. What else is new?
It would be nice if there were no blacks in the stores. You would not have to listen to them screaming, I guess they call it talking, at each other and there would be no worry of being robbed until you got to the parking lot.

It's edifying, I suppose, the first thoughts of the modern conservative....

"Snoof or it could have been an instore employee with a poor sense of humor. One of my friends worked in the winn-dixie deli and he announced over the intercom christ, christ party of twelve your platter is ready. Yeah he didn't keep that job long but it was fun while it lasted."

If for no other reason, probably for the fact he couldn't count to... 13.

Yep because his manager obviously thought it was funny and when his friends retell it years later they will probably screw up the story so that's why he got fired.

Fandango this happened over 20 years ago. Maybe he said 13 maybe he didn't but he writes data encryption algorithms so I doubt it was his ability to count. More likely his friend with MS screwed up the re-telling of the story. I supose you could have found it humorous if you had wanted to but your sense of humor obviously has something to do with being a twit.

Or, wait, you were the 40 year old manager without the sense of humor and so you know that's why you fired him.

This happened in the tolerant north? Say it ain't so!

Where are the media whores, Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson?

Many years ago I worked in a Dept store and
had Dick Hertz paged. No one with groin pain
complained.

For some reason this strikes me as more of a prank than actual racist intentions. Perhaps, a social experiment on how easily we get offended.

It really sounds like something I would have done as a youth just to fuck with people and watch the reaction play out. Anybody ever seen the Amazing Racist on youtube?

Ah, but you know me so well. In fact, I am 28 y/o and I do Bioinformatics Simulations Modeling. Sorry if you think your original story conveyed any of the purported intelligence you claim your friend to have; I didn't get that.

Incidentally, it's "suppose", but at least you got "twit" right; you must be very familiar with the concept. Maybe you should spend more time educating yourself rather than insulting people you don't know. When your best argument is an insult that speaks volumes of your intelligence.

Yes because being to lazy to spell check is of course a sign of inferior intelligence. You of course never make a typo or mis-spell anything so are free to become the new spelling nazi of the DR. Have fun with that if a post is understandable I let the gramatical errors slide but if you can't make the logical leap to understand a post because supose is not spelled suppose then you have far greater problems than I can fix. I'll keep trying on the sense of humor at 28 you are far to young to have lost yours.
