This came to me from a friend from New Orleans. Thought you might
like to read it.
I shop the Covington Walmart, if true this would upset me also.
Hello to everyone,
This past Saturday my son Cole (10 years old) and I went to the Covington
Wal Mart to exchange a gift he received. Cole received a play station
game
that he already had and wanted to get another game. Cole did not have his
receipt, but Wal Mart has a policy that if the item was bought there, you
can return it in exchange for a Wal Mart gift card. I told Cole it was
his
responsibility to get the card. After standing in line at the customer
service for a while, Cole approached a black female employee, she had a
gold front tooth, neck tattoo's, and loop earrings that a poodle can jump
through. I waited at the end of the counter for Cole while he received
his
gift card. Cole approached me with a puzzled look on his face, so I asked
of him what was wrong. Cole turned the Wal Mart gift card towards me and
asked me "Dad, what does Happy Kwanzaa mean?". The gift card was a Wal
Mart card that said Happy Kwanzaa. Needless to say I was not a happy
camper.
Looking at the long line, I was not about to wait to handle this issue. I
approached the employee that issued my son the card, her name was
Cavalier
(I think her parents named her after their crappy car!). I asked
Cavalier,
"Do you have any gift cards that have Merry Christmas on it? Cavalier
said
yes. I then asked her "Do you have any cards that say Happy Holidays on
it?" Cavalier said yes. I then asked Cavalier why would she give a gift
card that is celebrated by ONE color of people, Black people, and ONE
class of people, African American? She did not respond. I then asked her
why would she give a racist and biased card to a young white boy? Again,
no answer. At this time I looked down at my son with concern that he
would
be upset at what happened or upset with me getting pissed off. With the
most stern look on his face, he stared at Cavalier waiting for her to
give
a sensible answer.
Noticing there was a problem, the manager (a white man named Gary came to
the counter) asked if there was a problem. I looked at Gary and asked him
if he celebrated Kwanzaa, to which he said no. I then asked Gary why. He
responded by saying "I cannot answer that question". I said oh I
understand, let me answer that question for you, it is because you are
WHITE. I told Gary it is bad enough that I have the presidential election
shit thrown in my face, now I have to deal with a racist employee
throwing
her own racial beliefs in my face. At this point Cavalier responded by
saying that Kwanzaa is a centuries old tradition that started back in
Africa . Well, she pissed off the lion within at this point. I told
Cavalier that it is obvious how stupid she really is, that Kwanzaa was
created by a black minister in Atlanta, Ga. in 1991, and that I have a
white female friend that was born in Johannesburg South Africa over 50
years ago and she has never heard of
Kwanzaa. I then asked her that she should go back to Africa and celebrate
this B.S holiday, I also asked Cavalier "What came first Christ (CHRIST
mas) or Kwanzaa? Gary, the manager asked me to settle down and he would
exchange the card, I said that that was not good enough, that he/and Wal
Mart should have never printed these cards. I flipped the scenario over
on
Gary and said "What if me son worked here, and would have given a gift
card that had a Rebel flag on it or a Happy Birthday to David Duke on it
to a black person, would he still be employed here? Gary stated that Wal
Mart doesn't or would not print those card, and I said exactly.
I then threw the card a Cavalier, and told her to give me another card, a
card that is recognized by all people, not just black people. As my son
and I walked away from the counter, we were greeted with a loud cheer and
applause from the people standing in line. Many of the people reached out
to shake our hands and to tell us thanks. Over the years I have noticed
the transition of society, and I for one will not tolerate crap like this
anymore. I hope that more people will express themselves (Have the balls
to step up) to preserve our rights, heritage, and belief in God and
CHRIST
mas. Please share this story with all that you know.
Merry Christmas,
The Couvillion Family
Merry Christmas
