Bandana's in the mall

[Jikit]

My point is i see a bunch of other races do it but when a person of my race does it he stops them.

Then file a complaint. You have a valid reason.

I did, when I got home I sent the mall a e-mail asking them for the rules and I told them how I feel I was singled out when others had done the same.

[Marlie]

Don't feel bad. I had my hood on in the mall and some lady rent-a-cop literally chased me down to tell me to take it off or i'd be removed from the mall. Funny thing is it's the middle of winter and numerous people around us had on big coats and hoods. If they're worried about shoplifting or some shit like that why don't they tell everyone to take off their big coats when they enter the mall. I'm sure they'd be happy to when it's 40 outside.

What happens to you Marlie is a common complaint by young black males. Such organizations need to know, not the office at the location, but higher up in the administration, needs to know what is going on in a way that demonstrates it is not one or a group of irate guests.

Emails are not an official form of communication at all. Send real registered mail letters and send one to yourself as well by registered mail and leave it sealed. When a company receives a letter by registered mail they take it very damn seriously. Registered mail is for the courts to prove date, content, and its tamper-free state. Companies know this very well.

Civil Rights by classification of race (not age or gender), has been spelled out by the U.S. Supreme Court to be unique in all other aspects of the judiciary: the accused is guilty by default.

Here is a copypasta from lecture notes 3 years ago:

Civil Rights

Constitutional rights of individuals to have full equality and the equal protection under the law.

Equal Protecton Clause

A clause in the 14th ammendment that seeks to guarantee full equality and the equal protection of the law to all individuals.

Equal Rights Tests

Strict Scrutiny Test - Test used by the US supreme court, to determine racial discrimination and other civil liberties and civil rights laws whether the law in question is constitutional. The burden of proof is placed on the government rather than the challenger of the law to determine constitutionality of the law. Almost all of these laws will be determined to be unconstitutional.

Intermediate Scrutiny Test - Test used by the US supreme court, to determine whether a law concerning gender is constitutional. The bruden of proof is partially placed on the government and partially on the challenger to determine if the law is constitutional. Almost half of these laws will be declared unconstituional.

Rational Basis Test - Test used by the US supreme court to determine whether a law concerning age or income is constitutional. The burden of proof is placed on the challenger rather than the government to determine if the law is constitutional. In almost all these laws will be declared constitutional.

By your United States Supreme Court defined rights: I welcome you to the Strict Scrutiny Test category.

May this mall go fuck themselves. Even if it is a private entity (some are, others ran by pseudo-city administrations) you are still protected in many ways here since it is a place that serves the public.

How is the cop racist for telling you the bandana isn't allowed?

Everyone knows that they give you infinite ammo, that's just cheating.

It's his job, just listen to him and shut the fuck up. God damned martyrs.

You accessories way too much too.

I also weep for the enlisted men that may or may not have to work with you.

>.> I'm a good leader the enlisted would be honored to have me.

Rent A Cops don't have jobs they troll the mall.

And for your information I was leaving the mall when he asked me cause I had conducted my business and there was no point in arguing at the time. i'm just saying even if he was doing his job they always single certain people out. It's not right. But hey that's life you live you learn.

lol I know this thread is serious business but your sig pic just screams "Iceman is horny!"

on the real the hypocrisy you encountered sucks, maybe you should have removed your hood and calmy pointed out that many white people still in the mall had bandanna's on

[b@st@rd]

How about muslims? Are they allowed to wear burkas and shit? ;-)

[GaaranGaara]

That sounds like a weird rule anyway.. Atleast where I come from nobody is ever stopped at the mall and asked to remove anything they are wearing much less a bandana.

[The stig]

2. She thinks all latinos and people of Spanish descent know Spanish

Then shouldn't the vast majority of, or at least 40-50% of americans automatically know spanish?

So your suggesting a common bandanna is comperable to a flag that represented a section of america that was pro slavery?

Didnt think so, its too obvious a fallacy to be made by you.

[Enishi]

If there is a "no bandana" rule then stop whining. Why do you need a bandana? If you don't need it to do your business then it shouldn't matter if he asked you to take it off.

[The stig]

^The point is he was singled out from everyone else.

There are most likely NO SIGNS actually informing people that bandana's aren't allowed to be worn in the mall and then the fact that everyone else, who so happens to be white and wears a bandana and any muslim is allowed to wear their vail isn't told to take them off etc, well, it just makes things worse.

So the simple fact is he was singled out and simply wanted to vent, though whining is very, very annoying, no offence jikit, it's clearly his chosen way to vent.

Me, i would of probably bitched and whined to the actual security gaurd (rent a cop), or simply demanded to see the manager and/or would have made a scene.

Or just done it, gone home and forgot about it, depends what mood i was in.

I remember, i'm white, but verytime i went into a shop when i was thirteen-14 and i was wearing a hoody, with the hood down and it unzipped, i was followed by the security gaurd, of course, i didn't whine, but i started to get annoyed and just stopped going lol.

[kome88]

Well that sucks.

Hope that security person gets a flat tire or something.

But in all fairness, sure that person was being a dick, but id take off the bandanna as well, just because I hate being part of a ruckus.

But ya know, people will automatically sum you up whenever they see you, not much you can do about that, except changing your appearance. Wear a yellow polo, and some kahki pants and I am sure no one will tell you to take off your bandanna. Appearances are everything.

Guess what im trying to say is, it is prudent to anticipate people being dicks, it is also prudent to blend in, and not stick out. Conformity is what we should all strive for.

So I go into the Mall and I'm get what I need to get minding my own business. Everything goes great. Then this rent a cop turns around an taps me on the shoulder on my way out of the mall. I take the Bandanna of and leave cause I have things to do.

Anyways, the funny thing is every time I go into the mall the Emo/Goth/Preppy kids can wear Bandana's around there arms, necks, heads. It's perfectly fine when they do it. But when I wear a Bandana that I purchased from the Hot Topics at that mall the day before it's a problem. I wasn't causing any trouble. I didn't have on any gang color's I was mostly sticking to white. >.> I seriously wanted to scream out racial profiling because, I've never heard you can't wear a Bandana in the mall because PEOPLE WEAR THEM ALL THE TIME!!!!

For a guy in the army, your a fucking pussy.

If you dress like a thug, ima treat you like one son...

[Wilhelm]

Weird "rule". Seems unfair that you were singled out, so maybe it's not a rule and that cop is a jerk. Luckily for me, I never see any mall cops or regular cops in the mall I go to.

And you don't expect to be racially profiled?

Like pookie stated, dress like a thug and you get treated like one. If you're this aspiring military personnel, dress like one, not like a person trying to gang bang. You had it coming even if you feel wrong about it. Other people might wear them and get away with it because maybe they aren't dressing into a stereotype that is usually affiliated with crime, just think about it.

I'm not a pussy. I just needed to vent for a second. If I was a pussy I would have actually bitched at the rent a cop and held up my brother and sister from what they had to do at the time. I didn't cause a scene and I did what he asked me to do. You don't know me, just because you read a couple aspects on a forum never think you do my brotha.

How does a thug dress? What makes what I'm wearing affiliated with crime? Just because, I chose to wear things in a certain forum or fashion then I'm singled out as a thug? People in higher organizations are wear suits and ties. My point is that different cultures have have different views on life and fashions. African American's have always been singled out because, of there particular of way of doing things their hair, the cloths, music. They way we represent ourselves is different an often seen as in defiance of the law or arrogant. That is not the case we are just expressing ourselves in our own way.

I'm not a thug never claim to be I just like to dress certain ways. Some day's I like a ball cap with a bandana. Another day I like to wear a button up with loafers. My point is that you shouldn't always judge a book by it's cover. You say I dress like a thug but thugs dress various ways. That mentality bothers me. Why can't a thug dress in a suit? Frank Lucas did so did Al Capone.
