Re: kicked out of wal*mart

I think you may have a good case. I would very much like to talk to you about this case further. Is it possible you were racially profiled? There are a number of issues at play. Your level of upset and humiliation may indicate a case for emotional and mental distress. The fact that the guard grabbed you could be civil assault. Contact me soon. 203.521.4915.
