Racial Incident just now in Publix

I was at a Publix just now in northeast metro Atlanta (Gwinnett County). Waiting in line at deli to get some meat. There were 3 people in front of me and 3 behind me. Suddenly a large black lady walks up and just gets in line in front of me. I said "excuse me" and she turned to me and said that she had been in line but had to go to the bathroom. She said the lady in front of her said it would be fine. That lady caught my eye and shook her head no.
At that point, politely but firmly I told her that that is not how lines work. If you get out, you don't get to get back in where you were. So at this point, she was still standing off to the side so I just moved my cart up. She then physically bulldozed her way in front of me.
At that point I decided to let it go. So she had a large order and was still at the counter when I got up there. So I told her, sarcastically, "enjoy your meal". She turned to me and said "you take what you get, cracker!" I was stunned. I had not turned this in any way into a racial thing. I would have said the same things if the person were white, black, brown, red, or purple. The guy behind me who had seen the whole thing said "karma's a bitch, Lady!" As she walked off, giving us the finger.

I am not a racist person, but it is incidents such as this that make those of us who are not racist start to lean in that direction. WTF is wrong with people?

Right, cuz no white person has ever randomly been an asshole to you.
How does someone else's actions change the way you feel about people who look different than you? One person's actions doesn't have anything to do with the whole race. Just as many trashy white people who would do all what that person did and much worse, so if you have racist feelings because of this encounter, it's only because you are racist.

I would never eat meat from a place who serves her.

Seriously, we can't say all kinds of words like, "Gay, or retarded." Almost everything that we've all been able to say in the past is now offensive.

The only things that aren't considered offensive is when a black or brown person calls a white person a "cracker," or a "honky."

Those words never bothered me...because I'm not ultra sensitive...

But just so everyone knows. It's alright to call white people whatever you want. Just don't do it to brown or black people...

lmao

Crazy OP and that sucks you had to deal with that, blacks are brainwashed by the TV and all the riots/"protests" going on and they think we owe them something.

The other day I was at Walmart waiting in line to buy a laptop for my moms birthday, when all of a sudden 1 of 2 black ladies in front of us turns to look at me and says "I dunno why we gotta get questioned on stealin' no $40 tablet, it's like SOME PEOPLE (looking at me) get a pass on not gettin' asked if they stealing".

Incredible. I just kept quiet and the Indian guy at the register just shook his head and asked "How can I help you sir"?
