Is @Spud34 trolling? I legit can't tell. :wtf:

On the other hand though, although I can see why folks are saying she shouldn't be dropping that kinda bread on a bag, lets not excuse the racist practices of the NYPD and Barney's. The two issues shouldn't be conflated.

Alot of those stores on Fifth Avenue are like that. If you white, you can go in there dressed down. If you black, and you go in there lookin mad casual, they will think you're stealing :mjpls: or they'll get mad for wasting their time knowing you can't afford their items :mjpls:. I spent a week in New York one time with my godbrother. He had a friend that went to Brown....but his family lived in Jerz, right across the bridge. All 3 of us (all black) spent the week together. We went shopping and we got looks at those types of stores. Now technically they were right somewhat because me nor my godfather had enough money to buy a $5,000 jacket :childplease: But what these racist cacs didn't know was that my godbrother's friend was rich, his father was some African cat that worked in investment banking and he lived in a mcmansion across the river in Jersey. He convinced us to go in those ritzy stores because he wanted something.

Wow nyc nikkas yall sleeping on a hustle. If I lived in the area I would...

A. Dress like a thug or bum and cop an expensive ass item, hoping that nypd would harass me. Provoke them into tazing or beating me and have someone record it.

B. Wait a few days until this story gets bigger and somehow try to steal or commit fraud from there since they going to b extra careful on who they profile now.

That was a terrible decision. Hands down. She already has a kid, she is 21 working at Home Depot or something, and in her picture in the NY Times shes like 8 months preggo lol.

C'mon jack, a lot of times the store clerks or salespeople have to fit the bill or get fired if they let fraud take place at their register.

Now real life question, this chick comes in and cops a 2500 purse looking like that, and gives you a Rush Card to pay...you not gonna harrass her at the register, but you gonna be like wtf...Now, let me ask you this - would you have let her buy something from YOUR store with that? I mean, a store you own?

Period, black people crying over the wrong things. We have real life drama going on and we are fixated over this garbage. You wouldnt get profiled if we controlled the wealth, and we wont control any wealth if we dont invest in ourselves. Is it right to get profiled? NO.

But shyt, invest in oursevles and have stores along the same streets as the ones we love to frequent. Period. Check the young cats out here that are credit card schemeing, wihich is RAMPANT in NYC, and they are hella good at it too. I know this is a novel concept, but sometimes, even when the other party is in the wrong, you should check YOURSELF (this time being african american) first - you just may make REAL change.

that's not true, if you recently open an acct, some banks will give you a temp card that just says something like PREFERRED CUSTOMER

Not really shocked at the people blaming the victims instead of the stores for stereotyping. I remember when the Oprah shopping scandal came to light, many said she should not have been dressed so casually. :stopitslime: They did not stop those people because they were concerned about them spending their last dime for a luxury good. They stopped them because to them a person of color couldn't possibly be able to have nice things without engaging in fraudulent activities. :mjpls:

should black people strive to purchase goods from business owners who feel this way about them?

:whoa: :whoa:

nikka I already with in depth on these two idiots in the original thread. Firstly, son Is an idiot for taking his measly as check and running straight to Barney's and copping a $350 belt. What's makes it even more silly, is he copped because he saw some bum ass celeb wearing it. And the chick is even more of a dumb bytch. bytch has two kids, no real income, yet she's spending the most bread she'll see all year on bag she can't afford to buy. Instead of 2.5k worth of stuff for her god damn kids, she goes to buy a damn bag. Call me a c00n all you want, but black ppl don't have their priorities together. I bet this chick lives with her mom & shyt in some small ass room with her kids. :smh:

Yea, it's a pretty embarrassing example and definitely not a good look for this chick, but lets not act like it's only black people who are caught up in consumerism.
