It really annoys me, when people use their race as response to an argument.
It's just childish and an irrelevant point to base an argument on. I can't stand it when people do it.




The amount of times I've heard:

"Is it because I'm _____?"

I always use the "Is it because I'm black" line when im with my friends and we're joking around. I've never seen someone use it in a serious way though.

I concur.

Working in retail for almost a year now, I've heard this well over 50 times.

Most of the time it's generic chavs covered in Nike/Addidas 'gear' and they're clearly about 14. They come in trying to buy cigarettes and alcohol, I'll ID them and they'll just start

" OMG M8 IS IT CUZ IM BLACK OR SUMIT "

And then I just call over our 6"8 hench security guard to kick them out the store.

I despise people who cry about race. Almost anything you say now. No matter what it's about, someone will cry and scream racism.

People are just dumb, it happens.

Yeah I get this all the time because I work in retail.. theyll swipe their EBT card (food stamps) and then something will come up like the card was declined of something and then I have to get a manager and then they are like "wow really, you need a manager over here? Is it because im black" like no -_- you entitled piece of shit, its because I need a **** manager to change this..

As one of the users said above this usually happens with younger kids aswell, draped in nike trying to buy blunts and then I id them and all their little buddies are like freaking out.. relax man.

I hear that argument all the time here in Texas. It insults me and makes me feel like they're insinuating i'm racist.

It is against the law and depending where he is from he could face serious consequences.. In the united states if you are caught selling underage to a minor the following things happen: You are fined 2,000$, You are put in jail for 30 days, the place where you work is fined 10,000$, they could possibly lose their liquor and tobacco license, and of course you will be fired. So tell me how he is "lame" for following the law and doing his job. You are the one that is lame, and clearly underage if you think it is "cool" to sell to minors. Grow up.

I bet that happens all the time with people coming in and acting stupid trying to get things they know they can't legally have.
