I am SO. SICK. OF. THIS. SHIT!
My wife text me around 4:45 today and said she ordered some groceries to be delivered at the house. She said they (Instacart), would deliver them at 5:15pm. Cool, thank you Sweetie!
So, I went out front and decided to sweep up some leaves while waiting for the delivery. At 5:13, I see a white BMW pull into my neighbor's driveway. My neighbor is Chinese and does not drive a white BMW. So naturally, I perked up.
The driver's side door opens and an African American woman stepped out of the BMW. She walked around her car and began taking plastic bags up to my neighbor's front door. I walked closer to her and said "Excuse me, are you delivering groceries?" She looked at me, ignored me, then continued with what she was doing. She walked back up to the front door with a second load. When she returned to her car, I told her "I'm sorry, my wife told me she ordered groceries from Instacart, and I thought you may have delivered our groceries to the wrong house. That's all."
She responded with a total attitude and said "Oh, I just thought you were racist."
WTF!?! I was somewhat shocked when she said that!
So I responded "Fuck lady, it's just groceries. Neverfuckingmind!"
She finished her delivery then drove off. As she was leaving, the groceries my wife had ordered arrived a few moments later. We had a very nice Asian lady deliver our goods to us.
Yes, I am white. But, race had NOTHING to do with my question to her! I simply wanted to make sure the lady went to the correct house! Nothing more than that! Race had absolutely nothing to do it. I didn't have a rifle in my hands and I didn't yell at her to "Get off my lawn!" No Trump 2020 flag or even an American flag in the front yard. There was NO REASON for her to respond the way she did, other than the fact that maybe SHE was racist. I approached her as friendly as anyone could have and she absolutely lost her shit and pulled the race card.
People need to get it together and get over this racial injustice crap. Rant over.
