  1. I wonder how Twitter would have responded if a white employee punched out and killed an elderly black guy for calling him a cracker then received the same sentence. I get it, the public can be shitty as hell to minimum wage employees working in the restaurant business. I was a busboy back when Roots first aired in the 70s and black customers used to come in and call me all kinds of names as they referenced that show. The day after the character strangled the slave holder and made reference to his black hands being the instrument of the guys death was especially fun. That day a group of black teenagers came in and spit on our stack of serving trays, chanting Roots, Roots, Roots. You may think I'm making this up but trust me I'm not. Of course, we had crazy white customers as well, like the guy who sat in the corner calling people all sorts of names while a religious sermon going on about damnation and the fires of Hell blasted out of his boom-box. He tossed some interesting metaphors my way before the cops arrived and removed him. My point is, I took it, it went with the job. And I knew better, even as a 16-year-old kid. I would have been fired on the spot if I reacted to any of that nonsense. The guy he hit sounds like a piece of work and I'm sure he provoked it, but that's not always the case down here in Florida. Some punk got out his car and wanted to fight me because I was on the wrong side of the road. Of course, I was there because I was punching in the code to open the gate that goes across this little bridge leading into my community. I don't think that registered with him though and I don't think it mattered. He was itching for s fight and saw an older guy so he figured he would come get me. Skinny little shit. I'll tell ya, even at my age and with my bum ticker I bet I could have taken him. I just drove off but he stood on that bridge giving me the double-finger as he called me all sorts of names. We've got some crazies down here in the new conservative paradise so if you are elderly and thinking of relocating, you might wanna invest in some personal protection device. I'll leave it up to you. That's all. Personally, that little F***ker should have gotten at least 10 for involuntary manslaughter but that's just me.
