    Remember he just claims that they racially profiled him, he has no evidence of it other than they stopped him. They claim it was because they have a policy that they don’t sell to anyone who looks under 25 without an ID…he’s 32, not sure if I think he looks under 25, although I could easily see someone not having a good grasp on this and not being sure. It’s not like he looks old.

    His complaint is also that he brought in his grand father (lol) and they sold to him without an issue. Well, duh, I’m sure someone much older him doesn’t look potentially under 25.
