I am very disappointed to hear how my daughter, Macy
was treated today. I think this is probably a case of social
profiling. As some of you know, Macy likes to go thrift shopping.....I
think this probably evolved from her being required to pay for her own
clothes.....anyway, she was very much looking forward to going thrift
store shopping today with her friends and was very excited to chec...k
out a new one for her. It is a store called "Again and Again" on the
square in Medina. Macy said she and her friends went shopping in there
and the owner followed them around and put the things they touched
behind the counter. She made Macy show her hands and claimed she was
slipping things in her purse. She said she was going to do inventory
tonight and find out what she stole. As they left, they told her never
to come back. I am in no way saying my daughter is perfect and does not
make mistakes, but I assure you that Macy would never steal....and I
would bet my life on it. Mark, Lynn and I returned to the store and
with the girls, and all the owner could say was that the girls "look
suspicious." I asked her to apologize to them and all she would say is
"I am sorry girls, but you look suspicious." She then told me that she
was going to do inventory tonight and she would find out what Macy
stole. I think the owner has some problems and I don't know what she
has faced in her life...perhaps being robbed at gun point or
something.....I hope she is able to find peace and trust in her world.
.....and what a long strange trip it's been!!!!!!! do these girls look like thieves?????????
