No one said she did, but it's not a completely preposterous scenario. Ever worked in the service industry dealing with the general public? Surprise the general public is filled with terrible people who bitch about anything and everything. But when there's hundreds of comments asking why this happened and someone gives a scenario on why someone m8ght do something so dumb, that person shouldn't be downvoted for it.

Reading the comments on the OP and I remember how much of a cesspool some subreddit comment sections can be..

Except you think they would use available info. Like saying, "Maybe he is maladjusted and is a hateful little prick"
Why does she have to have done something?

So everyone asks why they would do something. Someone throws out a random well, maybe because of this. Doesn't make sense.

Well, it's an odd thing to say when nothing even pointed to that.

Yes and? They didn't say she was a problem customer. He just said that it could be a reason they did such weird shit. Also said they don't agree with it or that it justified what happened.

Could be a race thing but my default is it is not. I'm white and bought a car from a dealer that had a 7-day return policy and the associate was white. When I called to tell him I changed my mind he had a fit over the phone and started swearing at me. When I brought the car back I made sure the manager knew what happened. The guy lost an opportunity at selling me a different car because he was just a psycho who couldn't handle failure.

This implies there’s a good quadrant of Wisconsin.

TIL. I'll have to check it out this spring or summer. Or whenever it's open and the weather is nice.

I'm 50/50 on whether this is actually uplifting.
Yeah it's good that we found something we can do that might help.
But it's still disappointing that we'll go this far afield to find something that MIGHT help while firmly refusing (as a society) to make the really obvious changes that would definitely help.

They're scumbags. Nothing more than that. I know a few people like this who do awful shit like this purely because they're shitty nasty shitheads.

My bet is the two charged white guys got mad that the young black woman changed her mind about purchasing a car from them and acted like racists usually do
This was my immediate thought on reading the article. Then I went looking for pictures of the participants to confirm. The two young guys look like the khaki-clothed Charlottesville racists
Edit I see that I misread the article. There are two different dealerships involved

I lived there a few years and didn’t really see anything I thought was suspicious. Though I did see a man in an SUV push a woman in a Prius into an intersection in Racine. I’m glad I got moved just before the riot. I could see my apartment in the livestreams.

I'm glad the US pressured Kagame to release him, even though I remain worried about his safety. Kagame is known to assassinate anyone who speaks ill of him, specifically those who challenge the prevailing genocide narrative.

My BMW dealership is cheaper, faster, and better than the independent shops I tried. And I get a loaner car for the longer services.
