: MediaTakeOut.com received word that yesterday the UNTHINKABLE happened at a New Jersey Wal-Mart, someone went on the intercom and said "Attention Wal-Mart customers . . . All Black leave the store immediately."
As soon as the Black customers heard the announcement, they started looking around in SHOCK and EMBARRASSMENT. In a few minutes, however, a Wal-Mart manager got onto the intercom and made a follow up announcement, apologizing for the first.
So now the question is WHAT HAPPENED? Was that some kind of Wal-Mart policy? Or was it a rogue employee? Or did some customer hack into the intercom?
So far no one knows. Wal-Mart says they are investigating how that happened. For now, the issued the below response:
We are just as appalled by this incident as our customers. Whoever did this is just wrong and acted in an inappropriate manner. Clearly, this is completely unacceptable to us and to our customers.
Stop spending money with people who are only going to disrespect and disregard us. Black people really need to stop being consumers-just for one month. Spend your money with people who will invest it back in your communities.
I understand the convenience of a store like Walmart. It is hard to get everything you need in one place, but we need to sacrifice convenience to stand as a united front against these companies that treat us like sh--.
Several days after Sean Bell's murderers were acquitted, leaders in Black community pleaded with Black folks stop spending their money with large compani
YEAH DEEZ ARE DA TYPE OF THINGS DAT HAPPEN WHEN OBAMAS SITTIN INDA OVAL OFFICE NOT SURPRISED AT ALL AMERIKKKA SHOWIN ITS TRUE COLORS TOWARDS BLACKS AS ALWAYS HOWEVER WHATS UP WIT DA BITCH INDA SWASTIKA SWEATER ONE OF HER FRIENDS PROBABLY MADE DA ANNOUNCEMENT I MEAN U CANT GO OUT IN PUBLIC WIT A SWASTIKA ON YO SWEATER WITOUT LOOKIN 2 START SOMETHIN RIGHT ONLY BLACKS DOE ALL DEM PPL OF COLOR WHO LIVE IN DAT REGION KRAZY.
es that made it clear they had no investment in our communities. Folks refused, and I think this set the tone for how we are being treated and will continue to be. Black folks don't have that fighter spirit that existed during the Civil Rights era, where our people sacrificed our comfort and the convenience of complacency in order to get our message across-even though the message was integration (which I think [EXPLETIVE] us up in more ways than helped us)we still fought tooth and nail. Today, not so much.
Yeah that's crazy, and if I was in that store at that time I would've been really shocked! Just imagine being in there shopping and minding your business, and then hearing something like that outta the blue!..WOW. But it was probably just some dumb employee or customer. I use to work at a wal-mart, so I know how easy it is to get a hold of one of them phones...SMH
That was customer,had to have been. Who's going to risk losing their job by attempting such ignorance...They need to watch the tape,go to the district attorney and see if that person can be charged with trying to "incite a riot".Turn the picture over to the media, and go from there!..This behavior needs to be made an example of.They wanted to give a Black woman time for "line Jumping"...but not this?...Riiight.
@ oretty, I believe they just put the picture up there as an attention grabber...this really did happen in Wal-Mart and its unexceptable...MTO has some of the dumbest dam readers in the world...its ridiculous...and furthermore...I agree, if you had stole something outta there, they would have no f-ing problem finding out who....Ashholes!!! SN: I never come back and re-read your comments, so no need to leave one!
U people r acting like walmart has like one phone or a secluded booth for the intercom. There r at least 30 phones in wally that u can make a page from. All u gotta do I pick up a phone and press #96 and ur on the intercom. I do pranks all the time @ my store but never ever racist stuff that damn stupid. I'm alreadi on a d-day
You all seem to forget that this is America and you can't go around beating up every white person sporting a swastika. You idiots don't even know the history of the swastika and how it has religious purposes. faking numb nuts! You all remember this, blacks are just 12% of the population nd whites are about 52%. You keep fa king with them and beating them up over stupid siht and you will fcuk us all over. They will react and there will be slavery part 2.
@Princekilla
That picture is several years old. I've seen it floating around the internet for some time now.
But yeah, anyone can work a PA system. There are tons of them around the store. People who used to work at WalMart would know how to work theirs easily, so don't automatically blame the store employees.
Boy go rap or something...I don't have time to talk to men who don't know who they are!....Find something to do...you mad becoz YOU got it twisted.LMAO...idiot...And that thing you call "MOM"? that pushed you out?..That's ya egot!..uhh, you disgust me...just move on.I got it...you're embarrased to be busted.It's ok it happens.shyt.See,I can repsect a person that has a use for good music and the people that makes it,and still be a different race...but you're a fraud!..You're a danger to black people.Stay away from me.
@ Zomg, you STFU because u sound like the fukkin numb nutz idiot. If u knew anything, you would know slavery has BEEN prohibited & there will be no mass forms of it here in America. Ever heard of the US constitution? Amendment 13,14,15. Yea that sh*t is written and we have about 4 branches of military to defend it! Idiot...
DIS WOULD NEVA HAPPEN AT DA WALMART WHERE I LIVE CAUSE DEY KNOW BETTA PLUS ITS MO OF US ROUND HERE THAN IT IS OF THEM U DEFINITLY AINT GONNA SEE NO WHITEGIRL INA SWASTIKA SHIRT OR SWEATER IN PUBLIC DEY KNOW BETTA PPL LIKE DAT ONLY LOOKIN 4 TROUBLE ALL BLACKS LEAVE DA STORE I WISH A KRACKER ROUND HERE WOULD DO DAT.
@ somuchknowledge " @JoAnna_Jolie you the type that would catch a std from one of these thugs cause you think they're to sexy to have anything dumb ass chick."
Ok but on the Obama post you told me that I was sick and twisted, but yet you post this shyt a thousand times? U must be buggin and you need help boo boo. Word.
Lol wow. They don't want our business, then let's see to it! I wouldve left and knocked everything in arms reach over,as I strolled the isles towards the exit! I mean alllll that shyt. They should fire everyone and get a new roster. Guilty be association. But for some reason it was a sick joke by one of us. I can't see a krkker gettn that reckless this day in age then again I'm not familiar with that area of NJ. Maybe there, the krakkers are bold. Idk, but for some reason, I feel that was not the case
CunningANDStunning-> Did you read the siht you wrote? Like I didn't know slavery was prohibited. Weed is prohibited but the siht still goes on. Who created those laws? Who runs the military? WHITES and WHITES. Whites have done whatever the fck they wanted and will continue to do so. You keep thinking a piece of fcking paper can keep whites from acting up lmao...just ask the current slaves in Africa!
well da manager apologized being dat it was sum jerk dat felt the need to be ignorant sometimes u have to overlook close minded ppl besides im so tired of race issues dang its 2010 ppl need 2 grow up and get over hate racism get to know about other races and cultures them maybe ones perception of anothers race will change
