OT Portland hotel calls cops on black guest in lobby

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Sounds like Jermaine is a bit of a pad sander, too. Behavior matters.

Utter bullshit.

We don't need to respond to white peoples racism in a manner that makes the racist comfortable. Racists don't deserve comfort.

Fuck them...
 
I have about a decade of experience as a hotel night clerk. We had no security personnel. I dealt with unauthorized trespassers nearly every shift. Some are just wretchedly filthy/smelly homeless who want to warm up and mooch coffee, some are thinking of robbing you or guests. Most are career criminals looking to steal anything laying around like a phone, laptop, or anything pawnable.

Some are methheads or alcoholics and crazy in a very dangerous way. I've had my threatened both verbally and physically, been chased around the parking lot, had glass doors shattered. Anyone you don't remember from checking them in is verified as soon as they are noticed on the property, unless they are with someone you know is a guest.

The #1 scam to buy them entrance and time to case the place is to pretend to be busy with a phone call.

Most hotels trespass several people every week or have them arrested, some of them unruly/argumentative guests but mostly criminals, hopefully without the guests noticing.

The Portland Double Tree hosts more black people in one week than most of you have given the time of day in your lives, so it's particularly funny that this bozo tried his stunt there. Such a sad life he must have to stoop so low.
Ok but it still doesnt matter. Did they stop and ask everyone there room numbers or did the just magically happen on this guy? If the only difference was it was a white guy would they have asked? If the answer is no...
 
That's because you use the racist's definition of racism.

You know, the ones that created this:

Such a ridiculous concept.

All of the words in the dictionary mean what they mean.

If you'd like to create another word for racism knock yourself out. You'll have to use OTHER words in the racist dictionary to describe your new word.
 
The only scenario that I can imagine where it would be acceptable was if you had someone in the lobby being very loud on their phone. That would warrant someone engaging with them to see if they were a guest and maybe to ask them to quiet down a bit.

None of us know jack shit about what happened.

I just saw a story about a crazy old white guy telling a black guy he didn't think he lived in his apartment complex. FUCKING RACIST!!!!!!!

Apparently the same night the crazy old white guy yelled at a white couple because he didn't think they lived in the apartment building.

WHOOPS.....he was just being a nosy neighbor that time. He was still obviously racist towards the black guy because he was white. Has to be. Has to be a racist.

If there's a video of every second of this interaction I'd be interested in what happened. If there isn't then nobody knows jack. Is old Earl a racist? Maybe.
 
That's bollocks. And more than a little bigoted.

I don't know if it is bigoted. It is the dumbest thing posted in the history of S2.

It's so dumb that if I hadn't seen Pulp Fiction and he said it was a great movie I'd skip it.

It is such a stupid thing to say that it almost has to be pure trolling but I don't think it is and that's scary.

I stopped reading this thread after these completely shitty posts...

Sooo sick of being a liberal republican and getting called racist by those that aren't a republican. Go fuck off with that bullshit.
It sure is nice to have some big guys around to kick ass when needed.:cool2:

Actually it's ridiculous to think that the winners of any war won't paint themselves in the best light.

Racism requires subjugation. You're interpreting it wrong.

Serious question - what word would you use to describe a black person who hates white people because they're white?
 
That’s crap. I’ve sat in at least 50 Portland hotel lobby’s over the years, never had a guard question me.

Perhaps it is the Holocaust survivor hat instead of a hoodie.

He's referring to conservatives.

There are conservative Democrats. You know there's a difference OB. It's not hard.

And conservatives (especially the social ones) are the ones who are more apt to be racist.

#FACTS

For someone to actually have this happen at his house, maybe you'd understand better who called those police... Newsflash: They are conservative.

Non existent.

Black people who hate white people hate them because of what they've done and continue to do. Plain and simple.

Wow man..... that's fucked up. To justify hating someone because they're white..... that's just fucked up. Not everyone who has white skin is from America, or has heritage here.

You're wrong. So wrong.

Again, Black people don't hate white people because of their skin. They hate being oppressed.

They hate the raping, killing, and subjugation that whites CONTINUE to turn a blind eye to and benefit from.

What you're talking about isn't true. Stop making it up.

Hate begets hate....

This line of bullshit is the same shit as when people say Muslims hate the West because of our way of life.

No.. They're tired of being bombed to SHIT...

That's not what I asked you. I asked a very specific question.

What would you call a black person who hates white people because they're white?

If you seriously try to tell me that such a person doesn't exist, well..... I don't know what to say.

Oh, I'm sorry, could you remind me when exactly did we bomb them to shit prior to 9/11?

So it is completely fair and non racist for white Americans today to hate black people because of whatever they see black people do today.

So Earl thinks this dude looks like a gang banger for whatever reason. Earl only thinks that because rap made it cool and Earl is old. Dude was at a rap concert previously. Makes sense.

I was at a Godsmack concert this summer and the crowd was almost completely middle aged white couples such as my wife and I.

Most of the women looked like meth head prostitutes (not my wife)

OR biker chicks. Again, not my wife.

And the whole place smelled like weed. My wife and I smelled like it when we got home. We washed our clothes and showered before bed.

If one of those people was in a hotel at midnight and got harassed what would you call that?
 
Today's terrorism didn't start with 9/11 -- it started with the '90s
https://www.cnn.com/2017/08/02/opinions/nineties-terrorism-bergen/index.html

That interview took place in March 1997. It was bin Laden's first television interview, and it was the first time the al-Qaeda leader declared war on the United States to a Western audience.
But there's another reason why this interview still stands out two decades later. It shows how much the features of terrorism that we live with today -- from jihadist acts to eruptions of violence from the far right to the concept of the "lone wolf" -- all had their roots in the 1990s.
For most Americans, the era of jihadist terrorism aimed at the United States began on September 11, 2001. But, as seen in CNN's Original Series "The Nineties," this terrorist campaign was actually intensifying in the decade prior.
 
Ok but it still doesnt matter. Did they stop and ask everyone there room numbers or did the just magically happen on this guy? If the only difference was it was a white guy would they have asked? If the answer is no...

Most often it is a Caucasian who is asked as they are the majority of guests and there is no PC fear/hesitation to ask and no automatic reflex for them to become hostile and argumentative about it, having not been raised to have a chip on their shoulder.

A minority is often given a pass when being rude or threatening because anyone standing up and calling them on it will be called a racist and most likely lose their career just for doing their job.

The guy broke the rules, then became a drama queen and escalated it.

Standard procedure to call police and have him trespassed before he escalates things to violence.

Actually he specifically typed republican, but then removed it.

It might be true after a study, but it is NOT a fact that republicans are more apt to be racist. Not unless you know of a poll taken by all dems and republicans.

I'm just tired of the generalizing. You so it alot too.


I'm a republican so i'm with racists.

I'm so sick of that nonsense.
 
That's not what I asked you. I asked a very specific question.

If you seriously try to tell me that such a person doesn't exist, well..... I don't know what to say.

And I answered your question specifically.

They don't exist.

Hatred was placed upon them and they respond in kind.

You created a strawman person you think and believe exists.
believe

They don't.

White people started this shit and like I've said, the second they start owning it is when it will begin to subside.

And I answered you very specifically. Being white does not make you an American or someone has committed any kind of racism or racist act.

So to justify that hating white people is deserved and earned and not worthy of some kind of term, like "bigot" or "racist" is completely ridiculous.

Please quote where I've said republicans are racist. I'll wait. I've never said this.

I've always pointed at conservatives. I've even brought up the Dixiecrats (who used to be Democrats that changed to Republican) as an example of racist Democrats.

I say this with full acknowledgement that not all conservatives are racist. People like you, @SlyPokerDog, and @PtldPlatypus are amazing examples.
