Did the dispatcher specifically ask about her race or did he volunteer the information?

If the cops showed up then they would know the description of the person, including race. There are at least 5 things they absolutely ask. If they didn't respond then I suppose they might not ask but that is usually reserved for people calling the cops for the wrong toppings on their pizza. Im guessing they responded. And Im willing to bet this woman made a scene worth calling them because that's what many modern human beings do now when they are told no.

Im also willing to bet we never see the entire video of the exchange just like we didn't with the Starbucks thing. The narrative is created. Full steam ahead. America is horribly racist despite the statistics that suggest otherwise. The statistics actually suggest that when compared to other countries the US is remarkably tolerant, and safe. That doesn't sell news.

The manager at that Starbucks was a seriously progressive person, politically. People who know her have come to her defense on reddit and elsewhere but the media isnt covering it. Somewhere, the video exists of her being verbally accosted for an hour or so until she felt the need to call the police. Facts dont matter. Great times.

There are too many presumptions in this statement. No.1 she must have caused a scene because that is what "modern human beings do when they are told no".
She might have caused a scene because she had a perfectly legitimate coupon that she knew was legit so why wasn't he honoring it?

If the coupon was fake she wouldn't have displayed it for the world to see. She more than likely wouldn't be doing interviews either.

There were other people in the store besides those 2 and maybe they backed up her version of what happened. Also if she is the perpetrator of the conflict then why does did the other employee get fired as well?

"You're making too many presumptions to be taken seriously, now here is an updating list of my presumptions about the same thing."

Yeah but you conveniently ignore relevant points that were made (And your own list pf presumptions) for the purpose of doing what exactly. You didn't provide one piece of information that was relevant to anything that occurred in the store and your presumptions (such as the scanning of the coupon) were incorrect. So was the point relative to whether or not it was a valid coupon or not. The validity of the coupon was the reason behind the disagreement in the first place.

So they would have fired the guy even if the coupon was bogus simply to avoid the all important twitter beefing that would have ensued? They also would have issued a statement and risked the possibility of a lawsuit by implying that there was some level of discrimination on the part of the employees because they were afraid of the political backlash from whom exactly?

As usual you're short on factual evidence but long on assumptions and innuendo. Back to the drawing board and simply read for a change.

You have evidence that the coupon was real?

Do you have evidence that it was fake?

I’d be interested to hear what CVS policy ( or how are their employees are held accountable ) is if it turns out an employee accepts a coupon that ends up being fraudulent .

Well Columbo the store reps stated that they conducted an investigation. Do you think their investigation involved talks with the man on the moon?

This is the "displayed" coupon

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... oupon.html

Also making an inference isn't the same as "making something up" I'd expect a noted logician such as yourself to actually know that but that would be simply asking too much apparently.

Well, ltg, the CVS investigation has positively nothing to do with what I posted.

Fact is you do not know if she would have willingly displayed a fake coupon, would be doing interviews, or if there were other customers inside the store. You simply made those things up then presented them as facts. Now you are asking about something that is 100% irrelevant to your quotes that I posted.

Same MO out of you. Make things up, lie, change the argument, and all that's left is the personal attack/insult.

Do you want me to show all of the other people that "made stuff up in this one thread to validate the point?

Do you want me to further illustrate how much of a liar you happen to be? Its easily doable.

Might have to pay out of their pocket. I've had certain employees from different franchises (particularly fast food) tell me that if their register is short or someone passes them a counterfeit bill it comes out of their check. Don't recall anyone stating that they'd be terminated.

This is a very simple question that I have not gotten an answer to: Did she try to scan the coupon at a self-checkout register, and if she did, was it rejected?

The maximum value on that coupon was $17.99. Is the guy supposed to lay nearly $20 of his own money just so Twitter doesn't cost him his job? What's a manager of a CVS pulling down, anyway, 50K a year, max? Googles gives me 57K pre-tax as the median.

You lied when you said that i made up the part about her displaying the coupon for starters. You also lied about me making stuff up.

Its not my fault that you do not know what an inference happens to be.

Here is her providing the actual coupon

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... oupon.html

You are lying now and continuing to lie by denying it. That is an inference based on evidence provided by her. Nothing is made up and you stupid (once again) by arguing otherwise.

Ok thanks, I could not remember. Seems odd that someone that could be discriminated against would actively discriminate against someone. There are all sorts of people though so no surprise.

What did I "make up" in the post of mine you just quoted? I made an approximation of the salary of the manager based on what I know managers make in other retail stores, and as it turns out I wasn't too far off.

If he didn't follow proper protocol in determining whether the coupon was legit or not that would be cause for termination.

She said that he didn't scan the coupon.

Didn't she try to scan the coupon? Wasn't that the whole reason for the encounter?

In the interview she says he looked at the coupon and decided that it was phony.

And why was he over there looking at the coupon in the first place? Did he just come up and yank it out of her hands, or did she call him over for assistance? I've seen conflicting reports about where she actually was trying to check out at in the store, self-checkout or at a manned register.

There are no conflicting reports from her and you just contradicted your own assumption that there were no other people inside the store. With that being the case then where are the conflicting reports coming from? The terminated employees have not commented as of yet and you just claimed that my assertion regarding other people being inside the store was "presumptuous". With that being the case where are you getting these "conflicting reports" from exactly? Or are you simply making it up as you do with most everything else?

I never said anything about other people being in the store, and some stories on it mention a self-checkout machine and others just jump straight to her interaction with the employee and then manager.

Where did the conflicting reports come from then? What was your source for those reports?

I don't much care if he's a Log Cabin Republican or works for Log Cabin Syrup ... it has no bearing on him being a state delegate for Trump. MANY of Trump's supporters were eagerly chomping at the bit to vote against their own interests ... apparently this cat is just another one of those dopes.

The ABC7 story linked earlier in the thread didn't mention a self-checkout kiosk in its detailing of the events, neither did a few other outlets (DailyMail, I think?), but a Gawker piece and some other outlet did mention she was at a kiosk first. Thus, conflicting.
