My name is "snip". I work in the East Holly mobile gas station. Off exit "snip". I grew up in Holly and I know and am known by many. The people who know me also know i would never stand for discrimination. Recently there has been a viscous post going around stating we have denied a service member of gas. Correction. We ran out of gas! We wave the American flag everyday! We let recruiters sit at our tables and recruit new members anytime need be. I am the manager of the Tubbys located inside of the gas station I am here over sixty hours a week and I can say this did not happen! Our manager here is nothing but sweet he would deny nothing to anybody if we have the supply for it. We have been getting threatening phone calls for the past few days and we are being slandered all over Facebook for nothing. I've been here five years. I can assure everybody anywhere including my town of Holly that we serve anybody and everybody. We have served hundreds and hundreds of troops. We support them. We are a team. If anybody has questions ask for "snip" or "snip" we can clear this up in no time. Like I said. We do not stand for anybody being treated less then equal. Does not matter of your yellow. Green. Black. Or pink. Three limbs. No limbs. Jobless or rich. We are all equal. That's how it should be.

Sadly, I think that it may be happening in this thread...

Even if this was true refusing to serve someone because you believe their actions to be morally abhorant is hardly the crime of the century.
I mean if a member of the taliban, Isis or any other bogeyman group went into a store in the US I can imagine there'd be a lot of americans that would be uncomfortable with serving them.

So what you are saying is, the indians who were bashed up in Melbourne (on numerous occasions) were by Asian immigrants. How do you know they are asian immigrants? How do you know they were not Australians? In fact i think i sense a slight undertone of racism in your post.

You do? Well, golly gee! If you aren't even the slightest bit racist I will eat dog sht off the street.
I know the attacks were from asian immigrants because I know - but you go ahead and believe whatever you want to. It's entirely possible that one or some of the attackers have received citizenship and can therefore - sadly - be called Australian.
My post wasn't about nationality, it was about race and race-baiting - that is what this thread is about, isn't it?
