A damn shame 

[SLCPUNK]

Wow, this is unreal. I mean...really.

I'll make sure not to give them any of my money anymore.

EDIT: I'm suprised none of our regulars haven't come forward to condone this yet.......

[jarmo]

Wow, how sad is that?

I thought those were gone when South Africa decided it wasn't a good idea after all.

The south will always be the same. I've lived in S.C four years, and although racism is not as extreme as this, it'll never change.

I can't beleive something like this still goes on in the 21st century.

I can't believe what I just read! And that people would be that stupid and ignorant to not realise it wouldn't take long for legal action!

[Genesis]

That's Disgusting...  . What's the use of legal action? Peoples attitudes never change...

I realise and agree.. but its just so naive and dumb to think they could get away with this.

Guess I won't be buying any Tyson products anymore.

Assholes, what a disgrace. I hope the bastards that run that company are boycotted, put out of business and bankrupt.

[Markus Asraelius]

Bitches. Just a bunch of racist bitches.

[Axls Locomotive]

unbelievable

I think we should wait until we hear both sides of the story before we jump to any conclusions about people. ?As we have seen in the GN'R lawsuits it's pretty normal for one side to make pretty outrageous allegations to further their case.

The issue seems to be that some employees had a private bathroom that was locked and only they had a key. ?Why would have have put up a "whites only" sign if the door was locked and no one else could get in anyway? ?As for some employees setting up a private break room, I've seen this kind of thing happen before in a business I worked at a while ago. ?There was a fridge that everyone used to keep their lunch in and there was a serious problem with food being stolen so some employees got their money together and bought a small fridge and kept it locked and just for themselves.

It's not unusual for cliques to form at large businesses and for these people to spend their time together, it's not a sign of racism.

I don't know what the truth is in this. ?Maybe there was bigotry and if there was then they deserve to pay or maybe it's the cracker barrel case and it's greedy lawyers trying to screw a some money out of a big business.

Best wait to get the entire story on slavery too before making an assumptions....

So if you're going to believe on side of a lawsuit no doubt you think Axl is a lying money grabbing scumbag?

Huh?

I believe that in Kentucky this kind of racist shit happens, yes.

Ever stopped for gas in central Florida? Racist shirts, hats, bumper stickers for sale etc. Same stupid ass rednecks breeding  and having more stupid racist rednecks that think the same way.

No big business would tolerate this.  Even if they thought this way they wouldn't want the legal liability in a lawsuit. 

There is a big difference between what goes on in a gas station in the butt crack of nowhere and in a major business.  If you've ever working for a major company you'll know they're very politically correct in order to cover their asses.

All kinds of shit happens, I do not doubt it for a minute. If enough people went to the trouble to get a lawyer.....you think they ALL are lying here?

Kitano, only a racist or racist sympathizer would want to hear both side of this arguement.  It's wrong no matter how you look at it.

If the white hood fits......

An allegation has been made and I would like to hear the response.  You are onbviously lacking in critical thinking skills, you believe whatever you're told.  It's not going to be a help to you in your life.

If what they say happened is true then they have been gravely wronged.  I'd like to see some proof outside of an unsubstantiated allegation before i condemn anyone.
