    It's too hard to separate the white's dollars from the black's.

    I'm confused? They closed down because a bunch of Asians were complaining that the prices were too high?

    However, if the 3 Stooges (Texxx,Basso,Traitor) were in charge, it would be shut down due to more minorities in one place.

    Doubtful.

    Lets say a fire started somewhere in the mall. If there were any casualties due to too many people in the mall (just look at the pics), everyone would be all over the folks in charge for not following the max occupancy guidelines.

    I would not have taken the risk if I was that person in charge.

    You'd believe race was the factor if you were just ignorant of fire codes and liability issues.

    This cop was being racist and sexist yesterday. He singled out the one black guy and pushed him back, the guy said you can't push me and he said yes I can. They ended up pushing him out and tased him on the ground.

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mND6nwxDEmI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    The girls were just as close and even ahead of him after he pushed him back. How can he back up right away from the front. People in the back have to back up first. It's not like he was gonna do anything. Maybe Trinidad James is his favorite rapper and he wanted to see him. I notice the cops always pick on men. Equality my ass. If he pushed a girl like that.

    If the galleria had been full of white people buying **** they would have figured out a way to keep it open.

    I doubt it, unless you can prove that there was a time where there were equally as many white people there but they decided to keep it open.

    OP sort of has a point. It seems they're only "at capacity" when dealing with certain types of people.

    Agreed. How was the guy supposed to back up when there are hundreds of people directly behind him. **** the police.

    Bigtexxx. You ain't see Boyz in the hood? Black cops are racist too:p

    Shocker :rolleyes:

    He didn't see him get pushed. All he has to say is this guy is being uncooperative and defying me. Explain to me how he's supposed to back up from the front? Why did he single out the one male? The other girls around him were closer.

    Cops taser people when the most they need to do is slap cuffs on them and shoot people when they should use their taser instead.
