Episode 6 - Manic In The Moment
This embarrasing video of me, was taken earlier today... it's raw and uncut just like my original episode Episode 1- Awareness
Please watch the video, follow my blog and catch up on the series. Links can be found at the bottom
This "episode" happened today as I tried picking up my prescription at a pharmacy, where I'm a regular
UPDATE
They Call This Manic?
Today was a different story... today I was reminded how unfair and rude some people can be as I was profiled based on my looks.
The ability to present my case to anybody was blocked by my barely manageable anger.. I'm livid, unable to speak even a few words as these lazy ass employees refuse to acknowledge my request and verify my information.
Per The Lead Pharmacist Instruction
According to the lead pharmacist in charge at this very store, I am to ask the pharmacy techs to verify my medication & refill history IF THIS PROBLEM EVER HAPPENS AGAIN, WHEN SHE IS NOT AVAILABLE
All Lives Matter
Can anybody tell me what I was doing wrong or what did I NOT say for me to be refused any of the service I requested?
This Black Lives Matter movement is really fucked up and I want to bring this issue to your attention as I look for answers to mine... ALL LIVES MATTER. It's not a RACE issue that is fucking up this great country.. it's a PROFILING issue. We all live in fear that is created by mainstream media hyped up by racist bigots and organizations that pick and choose certain incidents to further an agenda. Your only seeing the handpicked incidents and not the ones that conflict the very nature of "Hate" crimes, which is HATE
Situations like the one I dealt with today happen because of this... Everyone thinks that it's a race issue when the truth is actually placing judgement on someone based on their looks, not skin color.
I drove up to this pharmacy in a punisher t-shirt (special tshirt picked out by my little boy) and a shaved head.
I left the pharmacy empty handed because I arrived with the looks of a dope dealing mexican that was up to no good.
The Irony
The irony is that it takes place in the same pharmacy Episode 1- Awareness I will leave you to be the judge if I was "Manic" (a little off) or if this pharmacy was treating me very unfair or "profiling" me

Honestly that is kinda messed up in my opinion.
especially considering I had to go up and check again to verify you weren't one of those devil whiteys.
Racism isn't dead, it merely just moves and concentrates in areas. :/

This is really just crazy! @mrwang while understandable frustrated, I never saw you loose your cool or be anything other than rational.
You've got a history in the same store from the lead pharmacist, have a prescription for it, and it's the manager (not a pharmacist) that's got the issue? Wow!
That's just wrong! Highfive for keeping your cool though!

I was thinking it would be enough for that one store to change (like communicate with the lead pharmacist), which is a step in itself.
It's hard to know what can affect a whole national chain though.

Hey MrWang, all lives matter.But in the case of #blacklivesmatter, it is a different kind of issue. This campaign is mostly referred to unlogical killings of African-American people by racist policemen. So please don't involve blacklivesmatter in your post.
Yes. I know what is racism. I tried it on my skin. In a supermarket, in an airport, in an embassy (also here in Steemit). However; I never tried to compare my racist problems to #blacklivesmatter campaign. It's totally, completely irrelevant.

@thebluepanda thanks for chiming in...
#blacklivesmatter isn't necessarily specific to horrible killer racist policemen but I understand your point.
However I used #blacklivesmatter as a segway to justify my point that #AllLivesMatter AND I didn't hashtag it so because it wasn't my intention to sound like I was using that hashtag
#BlackLivesMatter is merely a stupid racist agenda brought to attention so racist fueled organizations can justify heinous acts of violence as a response.

It's your opinion and I respect it. Sorry but I have to disagree with you.
The use of hashtag is a pacifist movement itself, so I don't understand where do you see that "violence as a response". As far as I know there are black sheep everywhere. Just because some people take advantage of this social media campaign to justify some of their actions, it doesn't mean that the idea of the campaign itself is WRONG. It's not and you know it.

Being a US citizen, these so called movements are not peaceful.. cities are burning, cops are dying and families are being torn apart.. but i do agree, let's not be a judge of their campaigns.
Once again, I wasn't bad mouthing them. I meant to use "black lives matter" as an example of shitty people with negative motives, taking it outta hand

Are you aware of the Dallas cop shootings.. this #blacklivesmatter movement is responsible for that.

Did you read my comment? I am aware of the shooting. And all advocates of Blacklivesmatter asked for the violence to stop.

The #blacklivesmatter movement is out of line and overhyped.. either way, I respect your opinion as well. There's a lot of negative situations that have come from that hashtag and sparked a lot of controversy and it stirred the pot for radical protest. The media didn't help by blowing up the hype as well.. they played into it.. and that @thebluepanda is what you are seeing.

probably yes, probably no. Me and you are not African-Americans so there are a lot of things we don't know :)
Lets leave their campaign in peace, shall we? Badmouthing other people's efforts won't get you anywhere.
