Chris Rock's mom sues Cracker Barrell

[NapoleonDolemite]

My wife and I are pasty white and we used to go to Cracker Barrel a ton, and we had similar stuff happen to us all the time. BS lawsuit.

What really sucks is that stupid lawsuits like this take attention away from real racism. Racism has become the car alarm of words because nobody really pays attention when they hear it.

Wow this is about as silly as it gets.

I once sat at an IHOP with two friends (one white, one chinese and I'm mixed) for one and a half hours after being seated before even receiving a menu. We were the only NON black people in the restaurant. When we spoke to the manager and requested a free meal, he said we could have free drinks but that was it. I wonder how our case would have been received.

Ironically, this would make for great material for Chris Rock.

"What kinda bbblack folks go to a place calt CRACKA BARREL an expeck quality service?! Das' like a preacher goin' to a strrrip club and suing cuz e had titties in his face!! What kinda people!!!.... J-Lo has a big ass."

Seriuosly though, this is really really lame. This is almost as lame as Wesley Snipes not paying taxes for 6 years. Well, not really.

I'm a fan of the chicken and dumplings at Cracker Barrel. I also like the root beer floats. It was my regular stop while driving across the country last year.

I think the trick is to get a new hire as a server, since they're a lot more likely to provide good service.

Oh, and playing the race card after getting better service than many get at the same restaurant is pretty lame.

i would sue as well if i was her. she definately has a good case. trying to make her eat a meal there is grounds for a lawsuit.

Cracker Barrel has in the past faced numerous lawsuits and a federal inquiry over complaints of refusing to serve black customers, discriminating against minority workers and firing gay employees.

It sounds like they have had issues in the past so this is probably fueling the fire.
