A black kid gets followed around a store(s) by employees, so he makes Vine videos of them.

I think what he did was hilarious...but I must admit that my "the internet is full of bullshit" alarm is going off.

He looks WAY too clean cut and well dressed to be followed as a potential shoplifter. These women would have to be genuine racists or acting under orders from one to follow him around like that WHILE BEING FILMED!

I mean, if they were Asian store owners, maybe...

Had this shit happen in high school. I can't speak for this particular incident, but I have been present when similar situations have gone down.

I thought they were latinos. If so that makes them much more likely to be racist against blacks than asians would be.

Last time I saw it happen, I was 14-15 or so.

I guess I've forgotten what it is to be both young and black.

Really? I thought nobody hated black people more than Asians. (Not kidding.)

Every black made film taught me that Asian store owners thought all black people were shoplifters or robbers! Liars!

And I know stuff like this happens. I'm just saying that if true, I love what this kid did, but damn I really hope it's faked because those honkies are stupid.

Oh! That. That's not about race, asian store owners just think that everyone is trying to steal from them.
