[QUOTE="meiaman"][QUOTE="Tjeremiah1988"]Because the employees just want to help you and judging by how their act, there is something on you that makes them think that you need help deciding what to buy or what to shop. Maybe because you show an indecise face every time you go to a shop? :D No, I know they are following because im black, you just..know by the way they act. I remember when I was 8, my aunt brought me to a COACH store. This white lady kept following me and my sister throughout the store! I swear, she was playing peek-a-boo :lol:also to this very day, whites continue to get special treatment no matter their position. I remember a court case, a white man was accused of raping a girl, he later admit he did it and only got ...6 months :| . Im sure if that was a black guy, that would easily be LIFE. Also, im tired of getting followed when im in a damn STORE! Why do white employees have to follow me around asking if I need help, smiling with their cheezy smile every time I turn the corner? Its obvious your following me because im black and think im going to steal something. Im sick of it! By the way, this was in NewJersey :?

Well you're black and young. Did you read my post?
Teenagers usually get followed around too. Age, like race, is a factor they use when pre-judging someone. Because they don't know you, it's the only information they have about you. It's stereotyping. Yeah it sucks, but that's just human nature.
