What Do You Expect From A Restaurant with "Cracker" in the Name?

Rose Rock, the mother of comedian Chris Rock, claims she was racially discriminated against when she was seated but ignored for a half hour at a Cracker Barrel restaurant along the South Carolina coast. Rock said she and her 21-year-old daughter were the only blacks at the chain's Murrells Inlet restaurant in April. She said when she asked the manager about the delay she was told they could have a free meal. He never called over the waitresses and asked, 'Why did these people sit here for a half hour without service?' "she said. "The only thing he said was we could have a free meal and neither of us wanted to eat." You know those bitches ate 3 baskets of bread while they were waiting. Rock said Tuesday she planned to sue the Lebanon, Tennessee-based company. A Cracker Barrel spokeswoman said the restaurant chain was investigating and taking the complaint "very seriously."

Um....I don't know what restaurants she usually visits but where I come from, that's not racism, it's just bad service. Knock your tip down to 15% and move on sista. Just because you're the only black people in a restaurant and you have bad service doesn't mean you're automatically racially discriminated. Sheesh…you give them a free meal and they take a million… [source]

Free meal? She wanted 40 acres and a mule.
