Is that I am approached at least 8 out of ten times that I self checkout at Walmart. I use food stamps for most of my purchases there, and it frustrates me more that this cop, who I'm sure makes more than 100k per year, is stealing that block of cheese that I struggle to afford at the end of every month.
That sense of entitlement is beyond race, income or "class" and believe it or not, is the very thing that has fef the resentment and grievance that is so prevalent today.
