Family Shopping Trip to Walmart Ends With Alleged Racial Profiling

A man in Vacaville says he was shopping at a Walmart and eventually told to leave or get arrested for trespassing. Kenny Choi reports. (6-19-20)

[@TR-gf5sr]

She needs to be charged for filing a false police report. He was never hostile .

[@robv5834]

How do you know? We only have his version. That’s the problem with many of these videos. Walmart has a huge legal team, and they record in the stores for the most part. It’s totally possible they do have video of him acting out and he just didn’t record himself behaving badly. Don’t think I’m defending the lady, but we have no idea either way if he was hostile or not to make the claim you did.

Walking away is not being hostile!!!

No see you have to say you're not being hostile or they won't know. Smh but seriously, this man was just minding his own business

[@minniethemouse62]

When he was speaking to her, he asked her not to follow him and to move to another aisle. Further, when he was quietly walking away, “Karen” was telling the police he was being hostile. A classic Karen move...reporting to law enforcement authorities things that never happened but will definitely have the effect of causing the police to show up prepared to lay hand on the “hostile customer”.

[@KS-wk6uk]

There another Karen that was doing the same (the one that was accusing the bird watcher black man of threatening her). I think it’s a code all Karen’s have known for ages.

[@Thinks-First]

If you are told by store security to cooperate and you don't, that is most certainly being hostile. Hostile doesn't necessarily mean physically violent. But the fact that the store had to call the cops says he likely was on the verge of physical violence. Refusing to leave the store certainly qualifies .

[@Thinks-First]

@Edie Beacon Really, Edie ? You have to wait until physical violence actually happens before you call the police ? People aren't hostile until they become physical ? What planet are you from ? But hey, you believe the story so please post the timestamp where the racism took place. We'll wait.

I worked 12 years at Walmart and trust me this is how the asset protection associates act. They not only do it to customers but also employees. I remember I had to exchange a pair of headphones one time so as I walked to the back to get a new pair while the old pair was up a customer service, two of them followed me all the way back to electronics while I picked up my new headphones and then they followed me all the way back up to customer service. I can't work for somebody that doesn't trust me. Walmart can burn.

Crazy how times have changed I grew up in Vacaville and as a kid went to that Walmart all the time. As an adult now, I can truly relate to what he is talking about. The employees there are truly racist and prejudice. One morning when I got off from work in San Francisco heading home to Sacamento I stopped at that Walmart. I was getting some diapers and out of other shoppers a White male employee asks me "Can I help you find anything?" Clearly I knew what I came for and didn't look like I needed assistance. Another time a White female cashier recommended I go to the cashier next to her yet didn't say anything to the four shoppers behind me and I was next up to get my two small items rung up. A final time I finished paying for my items and noticed the person in front of me only had to flash her receipt upon exiting and when I held mine up the lady came close to actually read my receipt. After experiencing all that I just chose to avoid that specific Walmart location. Alot of us Black Men are out here working and handling our biz, we do not deserve to get treated in these types of manners.

I remember a time I was at a Chili's restaurant. The one I went to had gone defunct and I was approached by the manager about something. I don't know what it was about but I told her about these out of town businessmen who come over. I gave her a description and he was from places like Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, Topeka, Kansas, Omaha, Nebraska, mostly midwest or east coast. She told me I was causing problems I don't go around looking for it. I wound up calling another Chili's restaurant and asked for the telephone number of the district manager or area supervisor and reported her. Is it a crime to go to a restaurant and strike up a conversation with someone you don't know? A lot of out of towners would rather go to a bar and chew the fat with someone rather than stay in a hotel room and watch reuns of Family Affair. I find the show kinda nauseating.
