Black Shoppers Profiled For Making A Money Order!

Shopping while Black yet again.
Another incident in St. Louis.

At a Schnucks clerk was fired out the cannon after a video went viral showing two Black customers being denied service after he pulled a fictitious rule out of his ass.

Kellen Hill posted the video on social media a clerk who decided his girlfriend was not worthy of paying for a money order by debit card. So she decided to take out money and went back to the same location to be denied by the clerk.

They had a Florida driver's license and debit card. The clerk thought they were using fraudulent cards. Even though they produced dollars, he didn't want to make sense.

Hill whipped out the camera phone and started telling his story.



Now after another clerk took care of the matter, Hill uploaded it on social media and it reached Schnucks higher ups. Company CEO Todd Schunck released a presser in regards to the employee and the shoppers.

"Due to multiple recent incidents of fraud where subjects were using stolen debit cards and showing out-of-state identification — most frequently from the state of Florida — to purchase high-dollar money orders, the customer was asked to use cash to make the purchase instead," Schnuck said in his statement. 
Young woman is crying after being denied service.
"Later in the day, the customer complied with the request, when his (girlfriend) returned to the store with cash," Schnuck said in his statement. "The money order should have been sold to her at that point. It was not."

"Although the teammate was focused on the recent increase in fraud, once the customer produced cash for the transaction, the money order should have been sold without further issue," Schnuck said. "I want our customers to feel welcomed and respected in our stores and I sincerely apologize for how our customers were treated in this instance."

I can tell you straight up, that being Black in America is rough. Remind Coondace Owens, Koonvin Jackson, Koonye West and every Black coonservative, that race relations ain't good. And if you think it's getting better under Donald J. Trump, I got Michael Cohen's number to give you. 

Shopping while Black is still an issue in the United States.
