What is the name of your state? Illinois

I was shopping at October 18, 2003.
Check out person, Rhonda, was making check out procedure very slow and was
talking to her customer-acquaintance more than needed. She started my
check out with the same slow manner. She damaged the container of my goods
and packaged it into a plastic bag. I said to her that I needed an
exchange for the damaged goods. She just ignored me. I repeat again. The
same ignorance like I wasn’t standing over the counter. I thought she has
problem with hearing so I repeated the third time slightly louder. Then I
was insulted.
Her exact words were: “ I’m an American woman. You are not allowed to bark
at American women. No one is allowed to bark at American woman.”

My wife isn’t an American citizen yet and she was shocked with this insult
and racial discrimination. I tried to get a manager but I still haven’t
got any apologies from this person.

My wife and I still remember this like it happened yesterday. We are also afraid to go to that store again inspite it's the closest food store to our home and to any other Dominick's store too.

Do I have a case? What legal practice area should I look into?

Thank you.

My response:

A case for what? Being insulted?

The best you can do is not to patronize that store, and write the store a letter telling them why you're not shopping there any longer.

Thank for the response

Thank you very much. Your help is very appreciated.

The store was not concerned: "She's a good employee"

I will be a second rate citizen till the day I die and have NO rights against racial abuse in the "country of freedom of racial speech insult and abuse".

My response:

All you said was, "Her exact words were: “ I’m an American woman. You are not allowed to bark at American women. No one is allowed to bark at American woman.”

There is nothing "racial" in what you stated.

But hey, if you want to feel "racially" insulted, that's up to you.

At least you were properly insulted. I cannot count the amount of times obnoxious jerks have yelled, "Hey, mammacita" or, "Hey, latino mommeeee."

I don't have an ounce of spanish blood in me.
