In a study done by the TV show, What Would you Do, a women was kicked out of a high end store because she was black. They had actors playing the people that worked at the store, but the people that were actually shopping were not filled in on the experiment. Many of the people around listened in to the conversation, but did not say anything to the manager, even though she was treating the girl awful. One man, however, did voice his opinion, and was so angered by it, left the store. The majority of the people did not try to help the girl ande ven one guy agreed with the manager saying that she was, " going to play the black card."
In my opinion, I believed that its was terrible that they would treat that girl like that. No one should ever be treated like that, ecspecially when they were doing nothing wrong. I would have steped in and said something. If I was that person I would hope somebody would come to my defense. It was her word against the word of the manager and the security guard, she was never going to win.

Man gets arrested for going 110 mph
A man on Tuesday was arrested for reckless driving because he was clocked going 110 mph on the highway. 23 year old Everett says that he was trying to get home to bid on a Star Wars action figure. It took officers in an air unit to bring him down. When they asked him why he didn't pull over when the cop started to follow him, he said that he couldn't see the several cop cars that were following him. Police said that he has a long list of traffic violations and that he will be spending a couple nights in jail.
In my opinion, it was bad that he was going 110 mph on the highway; he could have seriously injured someone or even killed someone. Why he was speeding was crazy, he was trying to get home and bid on an action figure that was not the least bit important. He put getting that action figure over the other people's safety on the road. He made a careless decision and he should have to pay for it, so next time he will think twice before going that fast and putting other people in danger.
