California woman sues Walmart for 'segregated' black products

[waz]

This kind of thing would never happen in UK.
Despite the fact that US has just had a black
President, it still has a long way to go before it
truly treats Blacks with dignity.

Our black folk have a totally different dynamic than their US brethren. There are many differences, one of which the sheer diversity we have.

I disagree.
How would you feel if you were an honest black women in this situation?

The Walmarts in South Florida have no less than 80% black employee in each store including Management, where many of these decisions are made locally. Walmarts are the only stores where the Loss prevention employees are manning the entrance and exits 24/7.

Funny coincidence: I was in the CVC in Fresh Pond a couple of weeks ago looking to buy a new trimmer and they were all locked up in a glass case. Looking at all the different options and reading the labels through the glass to decide which one I wanted to get, the store manager comes up to me and asks if I needed any help. I told her I'm still deciding and she stood there waiting until I made my mind up. She unlocked the case, grabbed the one I chose and she walked it to the cash register and gave it to the cashier and told her it was for me. I didn't think for a minute if the women's kits were locked up or not nor did I think there was a racial element involved, just store policy and neither were the kits that expensive. Highest one was like $50 or something like that, but is this sexual discrimination?



Black people in the US certainly have their grievances, there's no doubt about that but at the same time, if you owned that particular Walmart and you knew that many of the items being clipped from the store were those specific products, what would you do?

Haha I bet Target would have been a cheaper choice than CVS and maybe even a bigger selection. You are correct though I never remember seeing any women’s stuff behind glass.
BTW I’m at BJs and they have the Braun series 3 and 7 here not behind any glass (nor any antitheft devices) and the 3 is $89 and the 7 is $189 with the cleaner + 3 refills.

Plus who is kidding whom. That Walmart has stuff behind glass because they were getting pinched. The level of store security goes with the territory/clientel. If they had problems with theft at the store I’m in they’d be behind glass too.

America should give human rights to their own black people instead of poking nose in other countries' human rights.

What "human rights" do they lack, they receive everything including things whites do not. They are allowed into university with lower SAT scores, they are given scholarships based on their skin color, they are offered jobs that whites are not offered. They are given jobs they are not qualified for for the sake of "diversity". They can freely use racist slurs against whites on television and get away with it and then scream everything and everyone else is racist. There are so many propgrams and perks they get that it's rediculous.



Stop pulling up liberal propaganda as an argument.

Damn, that must suck if you were an honest black woman. Anyone would feel humiliated in this situation.
Walmart should have done this for all ethnic groups and then there would not have been a problem.

I had to ask store employees to get me mustache trimers, head phones, cologne, watches and many other items that were locked up.

The lady is a race baiting gold digger and anyone who thinks she will win the case is delusional. There is no law against locking up merchandise. It's the property of Wall Mart.

I can think of one pretty huuuuge difference, in that the history of black folk original "migration" to the US is inherently quite different on a gargantuan scale than the one of UK black folk.

Even though it shouldn't shape the path of where things are today and how it might never be something they can shake, I would say it's a major factor in the way the society evolves. As a matter of fact, I bet US black history has an indirect impact on immigrating black folk all over the world.

This was the cheaper, Wahl brand.

I'd have to agree with both these fellas.

Wahl..they invented the electric shaver. Just another US invention.

I did not know that, very cool! Yep, just another out of millions of revolutionary products invented in the good ol' US of A!

She can always take her business somewhere else she isn't forced to shop at this Walmart, but I always love the bleeding hearts who have nothing to lose.

Walmart loses about $3 billion every year from theft, I have a solution:

1) You can compensate Walmart for its losses and they will be happy to leave everything out in the open

OR

2) Portion of clothing sold at Walmart is made in Bangladesh, Walmart will recover its money by reducing the cost of the goods it buys and that means renegotiating with its supplier, guess what Einstein; people working hard to make an honest buck will suffer the most, honest customer (black, White or Brown) buying every day goods will have to pay more, Please, let me know how you feel now.

You simply are not understanding the issue at all.
Goodbye.
