Also from New Orleans and I’ll tell you what: the staff at Popeye’s could call me that ugly fucking bitch over there and I’ll happily take it along with my delicious chicken.

He doesn’t even see color. He’s just a guy who wants to know where he can cash in his points for giving a black girl a bear. That’s it.
The same people up in arms about Bo Bice’s treatment are the same people who complain when the description of a criminal suspect in the news doesn’t say the suspect is black or hispanic when the “know” it is. Fuck them.
I’m legit angry that a minimum wage worker has suffered a loss of income because of this douchebag. Like, how does Bo Bice imagine PoC navigate the world? We all just stop and break down when someone mentions us by our race? Why doesn’t he understand that his crybaby reaction is a symptom of his white fuckin’…

In 2005, I participated in the American Idol office pool and randomly selected a piece of paper with “Bo Bice” written on it. I wound up winning $50 for his second-place finish. I, a white person, profited off of Bo Bice’s labor and didn’t pay him a cent for it. So he, like, knows oppression, you guys.
If you lead with “I’m not a bigot, I love everyone” there’s a 100% chance you are, in fact, a bigot.
I live in new orleans and maybe things are different here but “that white boy over there” is not racist. THIS IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS.

There is nothing better than when a white person brings up the one time they faced racism.
Twitter user Adrienne Marie had the final word on this:
This is a great explanation that I find very on point. In addition, it means they have to question if they actually deserved all the things they have.
Does this mean we all need to go eat at Popeye’s in protest?
I’ve been trying for five minutes to conceptualize a world where my life is so cushy that this is the sort of shit that I could get upset over, and I just can’t. I suspect it would also have been sexist if she’d called him “that dude over there.”
Sounds like the employee was just embracing PE45's wish to get rid of all that pesky political correctness he and his supporters are always complaining about.
Literally cant even believe a woman was suspended from her fucking job for calling a white person a white person.

“If the tables had been turned and I had used something...and been as insensitive as to say something like that, you’re talking about I would be boycotted, there would be people not buying my albums...”
POC deal with racism all the time and this limp scoop of oatmeal suffered from it ONE TIME.
All of these emails really reinforce my belief that there were three types of Trump voters. 1) The “fuck you” vote, which encompasses the anti-PC sentiments, the “blow up the system” sentiments, and the “he’s not a politician” sentiments. Basically, people who felt, for various reasons, that the system either wasn’t…
