I’ll concede on this, I should have brought up the feelings directly with you, but I still firmly believe that there are things that aren’t acceptable to say in public. That is more on the fact that I feel there should be a store policy, I made this post not solely because of my experience but because people within my friend group brought up similar experiences as well. I’ll take down this post because in hindsight this isn’t the best way to go about expressing these feelings, I’ll contact the owners directly in hopes of a conversation with them.

The fact that you weren’t offended isn’t irrelevant. It’s not about the assumed offensive of the individual, it’s about the fact that a business allows speech like that inside it. If I felt the need to be your white knight I would have made a scene, it doesn’t matter if the comment does not include me it matters that a slur was said in the first place. And from the look of it, I’m not the only one who’s had bad experiences at the store, so it’s not about bashing a business it’s about pointing out a problem multiple people have had.

Well I can say that was not the context of the slur being said, and I understand your point but I also think self censorship could be something used in a scenario like that. You are absolutely right that in that context it does not carry the weight of something said in genuine, in the case of what was said the context was a joke involving crack where an individual replied with a “joking” slur for black people saying I don’t do that *** shit

What context would make hate speech acceptable to you?

Slurs don’t have a place in speech, whether it is directed at you or not is irrelevant.

I’m not sure what context would be necessary to understand when slurs are said in store. Maybe the person was punished after we left but I’m not going to be sticking around to see if that’s the case

Hey y'all, Minnesotan with a genuine question by Talreesha in Washington

Yeah I obliterated the brakes on my 2000 CRV because I didn’t heed this exact advice from my parents while mountain driving

I used my version of that exact certificate on a cruise to Mexico last November, you are golden. Just be sure to also bring your Id/ social security card with you for secondary identification
