And the cashier asked if shed rather have a white doll instead that looked like her and the girl said no. This apparently was a "news worthy story".
My issues with this story: -Why the fuck is the cashier questioning customers choice of items to purchase. Its none of their fucking business just ring my shit up. -They acted like this was a case of serious racism when its mildly offensive at best. I could understand if the cashier was refusing to check out black people but just a stupid, questionably racially offensive question isnt a big deal. -They act like this girl was breaking down racial barriers for children buying dolls everywhere. My daughter likes batman and superman figures over girls dolls. Who cares? Shes not breaking down sexist barriers for children across the world. --- "God didn't create humans, no, it's humans who created God." Dr. Londes, Cowboy Bebop: "Brain Scratch" (#1.23) (1999) ...

So they were talking about it on a BET daytime show full of fluff pieces aimed young housewives and stay at home moms. Do you also get mad about what happened on Young and the Restless? Note. I know that a few other media outlets covered it but it's supposed to be a feel good story about a toddler. It's not front page stuff. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

There, an actual source on the story. “’Yes, she does. She's a doctor like I'm a doctor. And I'm a pretty girl and she's a pretty girl. See her pretty hair? And see her stethoscope?’” Benner said her child told the cashier. 1. Any child saying "stethoscope" correctly deserves any damn doll they want 2. Awww ... Copied to Clipboard!

Wait is this an actual story? Like what the cashier said was stupid, but yeah I agree she ain't breaking down any race barrier.

By the way, the other reason this is news is because people like you TC can't help but have an opinion about it. People going "Awww how cute" and people going "God damn it I hate it when the news talks about race in a positive way!" are what get that story all the clicks and likes and shares they need.
So maybe you should stop letting the news media control you're mood. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I mean people for the most part don't seem outraged by it and the mother didn't make a stink or anything. The mom posted the story to her Facebook and someone probably forwarded it to a news company and they ran with it before others saw and then ran with it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Oh, if that's the case then I think thats fine since it's being viewed as one of those cliched positive stories you find on facebook. Those are pretty harmless, it would be a different story if it was an "outrage" story because I'm sick and tired of those. --- "Yare yare daze" ~ Jotaro Kujo "Children are pure, they know who's the strongest." ~ MaskDeSmith ...
