Someone nearby called the police and my daughter's friend walked in just as the police were talking to my daughter. The friend was so mad at her son for acting a fool but even madder at whomever assumed that my daughter had kidnapped a black kid.

LOL. This woman's not being able to accept responsibility for her own actions is probably spilling over into the home. She's probably blaming her son's not keeping up with his phone as the reason why she's in this situation, making him feel guilty and traumatized.BootsandBraidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03516676772421046983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654372504968060497.post-69049755376266476972021-07-25T19:21:35.530-07:002021-07-25T19:21:35.530-07:00“Your own employee seem to be the one that needs t...“Your own employee seem to be the one that needs the help”.<br />That comment was an understatement.

My friend was forever profiled and asked if she was the nanny. LOL.

It was scary stuff, in those days he might have just been killed for their assumptions.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654372504968060497.post-87303276666941796632021-07-25T11:59:30.737-07:002021-07-25T11:59:30.737-07:00Profiling is so presumptuous no matter whose being...Profiling is so presumptuous no matter whose being profiled, it's making broad assumptions based on visuals alone, which is fraught with errors since none of it is based on actual facts. I'm glad the one Karen is getting backlash from her behavior, which she only served to magnify by doubling down... I will make a presumption here on who she aligns with Politically... based on Behavior and her way of just Being. *winks* I know that since getting Dreadlocks people just assume I smoke Weed, it's hilarious, since they never Believe you when you say you don't partake... that stereotype associated with a mere Hairstyle just confirming people do profile in various ways, so many things. I know my Grandson's other Gramma, who is Hispanic, told him he SHOULD like Mexican Food... he didn't... she kept insisting... he told her that mebbe it's the White part of him that doesn't like it, just so she'd drop it and say, oh yeah, mebbe that is why you're a Hispanic Kid that doesn't like Mexican Food. The absurdity being, I'm sure there are many Hispanics that like and prefer other foods than Mexican Foods! My Fav Food is Vietnamese, I'm not Vietnamese... go figure! *LMAOROTF* Do what is therapeutic my Friend, we can't change the biases of Society at large, all we can do is try to rise above it all and set a Positive example that hopefully Future Generations will want to align with and ditch all that Prejudiced superficial crap.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.com
