Flatiron bar and lounge 230 Fifth (you may recall its rooftop bar as the host of Kobayashi's controversial solo hotdog eating contest on July 4) is at the center of a $500 million racial discrimination lawsuit filed by a black man from Texas.

Black Americans are being discriminated against and are losing the battle!
Attorney.General@State.DE.US
Howard.stringer@am.sony.com
Corporate White America's new way to fight discimination suits? Work with a WASPY and aggressive police force. The corporattion then makes up false charges, the police act in the corporations behalf to act on the charges without a thorough investigation. They arrests the black individuals who made charges thus the credibility for the lawsuit is null and void. This is happening right now.
Write the E-mail above and say why are you allowing Sony and other corporation to make false charges to squash discrimination lawsuits by black people. If we get enough protests we can all squash this before it continues to grow. Democrats keep taking our votes for granted!

That situation should not prevent Black folk from filing discriminatory lawsuits. Don't you think the Department of Justice would be aware of these activities and would do an investigation along with the Department on Civil Rights.
Just saying!

Almost daily BV reports another "racial discrimination" lawsuit. These nuisance, race-hustling tools are obviously a source of pride for Negroes. Whites and asians are FED UP with this nonsense and misuse of the US court system. Major backlash is coming.

To max
Where there is smoke, there's fire. The backlash come when these companies loose these lawsuits and is driven out of business.
The employees are the one who suffers.
If they can't do the time, then don't do the crime and those same whites, Asians and many Blacks can care less who's fed up.
Bottom Line

So if they were a group 15 whites that were blocking the entry, being loud & wild & seemingly going to cause damage to a $10,000 couch, would the owner say, "Leave them alone, they're white. Let them f*ck up my bar." Ofcourse not.
I believe they would have been asked to leave and would not have gotten a dime back. I think the group of black peeps got their money back because there were so many of them. If race were a factor, they would not been allow to stay there for hours. Hell, they wouldn't have gotten in the door to begin with.

We should not rush to a disision here. We must look at all the facts and events with wisdom and make sure this is not just another get rich scheme by another black playing the nasty race card for some percieved slight. We have as a nation seen too much of that and it has solved nothing.
