While this isn't commendable behavior by the hotel or the couple, I am sure that this is not the first racist customer that this hotel chain has encountered. I find it hard to believe that this is the first racist couple that the hotel employee has encountered.
In the service industry you have to deal with assholes all the time.
This article makes me wonder what other information is out there about this case.

I believe all news and research that supports my opinion, and dismiss the rest as conspiracy and lies.

They should've told them to take a hike, but the claim for 75k disgusts me too.

What sort of tips do you think a racist would give a black waiter?

Nonsense. The hotel should refuse to do so, and people who disagree can go elsewhere.

This is a good point. And it's unlikely he'll be continuing to work there, so... *NM*

I disagree. Those ridiculous claims are a major problem in America.

I would agree if he was demanding a million or 200k. *NM*

Why is 75k all right, but 200k not? Where do you draw the line, and why? *NM*

The line is arbitrary, I agree. Yet Legolas was against the mere idea of financial recompense

So you support the right of a hotel to deny lodgings or service to a black person?

If it isn't a money issue, I'd go - this shows how far they will accomodate their guests.

But it's the same principle - kicking someone out for something you don't like about them.
