Ok I just had to post this now since it just happened. I had a elderly black man come into my hotel and ask for a suite for a month. Upon being informed that we do not have monthly rates but we do have weekly rates and the price he exclaimed to his son, "Obama hasn't changed a mother fucking thing. I told you we'd have to pay full price for a hotel room. No one will give us any breaks just cause a brother is the the president." His son responded, "Thats bullshit, we should get the room for $300 a month not $300 a week like the honkeys."
So begins the gimme gimme phase of America. May the Lord save us all. As if we don't have a bad enough entitlement complex, it has just gotten worse.
No I will not treat you differently because you are black and the president is part black. No I will not treat you differently if the president is white, brown, pink, purple, or glowing nuclear blue. I will treat you the same as I treat everyone else. Your skin color does not mean you get special treatment. You earn special treatment from me. And that is the way it should be for everyone. You reap what you sow. You cannot expect people to give you anything you want just because you held your hand out. Earn what you desire. Volunteer work, a job, I don't care what it is as long as you do something to benefit yourself, your family, and your community. That is how you get things even if it is just respect you get.
To those who think I am wrong about this....
Why don't you just take a long walk down a very short pier? Or maybe a swan dive from a tall building? Go play in the fast lane on the highway? Oh hell, GO FUCK YOURSELF.
I am an asshole and I approve this message.
