Lowes employee tries to gaslight woman who was told "go back to your country" by another customer

[Demovictory9]

Xuna then took out her phone and started recording while she went over to the register and asked the woman to apologize for her remarks. The woman declined to apologize.

'There is no crime being committed'
At this point, a white Lowe's employee named David got involved in the exchange and asked her to delete the video Xuna was filming. He even called her 'combative' and 'hostile.' "There is nothing that you need the video for. There is no crime being committed," David could be heard saying in the video. Xuna responded that it was nothing to him because he's white.

"It's not right to be racist. And I have full right to protect myself, take the video just in case she does something bad to me," Xuna said.

Meanwhile, the woman who yelled at Xuna left the store. David further said that 'there's no point in talking about it anymore' and asked Xuna to 'pay her money and leave.'

1. Letters and phone calls.

We can go other places if strong actions are not taken.

[Demovictory9]

2. Twitterverse took care of that. Lowes has acknowledged the incident.

4. That's just one employee. Doubt he speaks for the co.

BUT he should be disciplined.

5. That full of crap male worker needs to be fired for trying to twist the story around...

and for insisting that the customer delete the video of the incident. And of course the racist woman should go too.

So many, and I'm sorry but I have to say it, white people with racism in their hearts. It's sickening considering how Native Americans, the original people of this country (not them) were/are treated, and now some have the nerve to tell others to go back to your country.

And don't get me started on CRT and book banning because so many don't want the true history of racism against Black people being taught. They want it hidden so "white people won't feel uncomfortable."

The place is getting increasingly sickening. The advent of cell phone cameras has exposed so much that went on before but there was no evidence.

And that guy wanted the lady to erase her video so that evidence wouldn't exist. God.

19. More than just claiming...

That it makes them uncomfortable, they want it to be okay to abuse "others" with impunity or even as a laudable activity as it was in the past among these deranged beings.

6. That Idiot

Has no authority to tell her to delete the video.

8. Sadly, the USA has monopoly on that

About 15 years ago, here in Germany, some old (expletive deleted) working at a cashier here in our town in Germany suddenly started shouting at me, claiming that I was trying to pass off counterfeit money to her. I asked what the problem was, and she said that the €100 bill I had given her was a fake because the signature didn't exist. The ECB head had changed from Wim Duisenberg to Jean-Claude Trichet about a year before, but the new banknotes weren't widely circulating in all denominations yet. She then started yelling, "I don't know in what country you get these banknotes [in this case it was the central bank of Belgium, which also uses the euro], but you are not passing these things off here!" In other words, "you dirty foreigner!" It was the only time in my life that I ever denounced a German to the police for Nazi-like behavior. She got a visit from them.

9. He should be fired

That is all

10. David just became the story. Evil thrives when others tolerate it (Nt)

[robleb]

11. Moron

This jerk is a moron. Making up BS. Lowes just lost a customer if this is the best they can do.

[Emile]

12. I find Menard's a better store anyways.

[rurallib]

15. be careful - they are known to be Trumpers

[Emile]

16. Well I didn't know that. They always have been

very helpful when I'm looking for something. Their workers wear face masks too.

[Busterscruggs]

13. I haven't been back to lowes in years

I went to get an application to show the unemployment people that I was trying to find a job. The hr person at lowes actually called the unemployment people and said they would hire me but I refused.

14. All Red Vest there had to say to the woman who made the insult is...

Ma'am, we do not tolerate our customers being treated that way in our store.

Then, turn to the woman who was wronged and say to her. "Ma'am, I can't make someone else apologize, but I can apologize for her. I'm very sorry you were spoken to that way. I personally value you as a human, and nobody deserves to be spoken to in that manner. I would be delighted to see you back in our store again. I hope this incident didn't ruin your day."

But of course, he had to carry on with some bullshit that had nothing to do with the actual incident.

18. Pretty much. And he could have offered to order her the other fire pit

and load the one she was buying into her car for her. Instead, he's a useless shit-head.

[Samrob]

17. Do white people realize that when they say "go back to your country" that if everyone did that

only Native Americans and other indigenous peoples of Hawaii, Alaska and some Pacific Islanders? Even more, what should be realized is that Native Americans by most anthropological studies originated in Asian countries.
I am so sick of these ignorant, racist, Bible-thumping bigots I can hardly breathe.
