School boys from Sudan & Somalia kicked out of Apple store in Australia for fear "they might steal something

Racial profiling. Six black teenagers of Maribyrong High School were told to leave an Apple store in Melbourne, Australia because of staff's fear they "might steal something".
     "Simply Racism, made them apologise though" one of the boys, Francis Ose captioned the video he shared on Facebook on Tuesday, November 10. The video shows the boys being denied entry to the store by a staff member and two security guards.
 
     "These guys [security guards] are just a bit worried about your presence in our store. They’re just worried you might steal something," the Apple staff member said in the video.
 
One of the boys replied: "Why would we steal something?"
 
According to reports, Apple later apologised to the six schoolboys. The principal of their school accompanied the students back to the store to help them in seeking an apology. 
 
     "The manager apologised to us and told us that we are welcome here anytime," one of the teenager said. "It feels like we have justice now."
 
The video of the incident has been viewed more than 107,815 times on Facebook and shared 1,881 times. Watch here

Racism still lives. The best thing we blacks can do is work on ourselves. If we were managing our resources well, the white man would be the one begging us to shop at his store. Gold, Diamonds, Oil...we have it all...even way more than the white man, and yet a majority of us still live in poverty. Why? Why are we so backward? Why are we so religious, with churches on every street corner, and yet we suffer so much?

Most of these whites sometimes are so dumb. It sounds so stupid to even assume that someone is a thief because of his skin colour. These kids deserve way more than just an apology.



The whites in this clip are Robots.

That's not cool to deny them entry but truth be told, if they had not experienced something like that before they wouldn't act that way. We(black people) our own too much

Racism is here to stay, it can only be managed and disguised.

They should give them free iphones to show how sorry they really are. Stupid fucktards. So being black automatically means they are thieves? Tueh.
