It is the universal excuse for any wrongdoing.

I have heard it myself.

I stick it under a plate if for some reason the waiter is busy ... if I can I catch their eye and let them know it’s there.

When I was a waiter, we used to use the term “Canadians” to describe them.

A real piece of garbage. Especially the look on her face after she took the money.

It’s either put it in that wallet thing they give you with the bill and personally hand it back, or, if you pay by card, add the tip there; but on that note the IRS and the boss will grab part of it. Best to hand it to the server personally.

I didn’t need to SEE the vermin who stole the tip. I already knew. It’s a sad fact that a huge percentage of Blacks will steal tips, and commit other crimes.For other races, the percentage goes down significantly. It s simply a fact in America.

I pay with a debit card and leave it on the tab for this very reason.

At the casino I leave chips and give it to them.

I’m right again. My batting average on these videos is 100%. Ok kids, you know the demographic of the effing thieves..;)

Responses such as yours above can come off as gratuitously antagonistic. I've personally seen a piece of lowlife White trash do this very same thing—and when I did, I promptly reported them to the restaurant management. So I'm afraid that your "100%" comment doesn't reflect accurate reality.

Having said that, I have little doubt that there is a significantly higher rate of this sort of crime that occurs within ghetto culture. After all, the number of Black children raised in single-parent homes—eventually leading to consequences like the story cited above—is astronomical.

The higher likelihood of seeing a Black person engaging in such behavior obviously has a strong tendency to reinforce negative stereotypes. Furthermore, consider how embarrassing such behavior is to the overwhelming number of decent Black people!

To continuously fixate on the fact that it was "Obama's children" is not particularly constructive, IMHO. Why? Because a Black person visiting FR—and reading some of these responses in aggregate—could easily become alienated from joining the community. How? By having their own negative stereotypes reinforced!

Unfortunately, these stories seem to provide an opportunity to conveniently engage in the "two minutes of hate" which George Orwell incorporated into his novel 1984.

I'm not trying to be PC—I'm simply suggesting that one of our goals here at FR should be to educate, and thereby to attract more minorities into the ranks of Patriotism and Liberty-minded conservatism. After all, the demographic trends will ultimately crush us if we ignore them.

In order to achieve the goal of greater unity brought on by greater numbers, therefore, I maintain that engaging in gratuitous racial antagonism can ultimately undermine the stated goal for which Free Republic exists.

Please keep in mind that I'm not targeting your post specifically, but rather expressing my thoughtful opinion on the potential negative impact of such "harsh" responses in aggregate.

Goes along with stealing the white man's stuff:

When I was a waitress this usually happened with church groups, yep church groups. A couple of people would leave a nice tip and somebody else from the group would pick it up before the table was cleared. I won’t mention the usual make up of these groups but they sure did like a lot of sugar in their ice teas. Like tons.

its not racist to simple acknowledge the truth....being that some types are not trustworthy at all...

discrimination is the perhaps the first big lesson a baby learns...its a vital human characteristic...
