I'll take the "n----- brown" couch please. Oops, I mean the "dark brown" couch. Thanks.
I mean what kind of dictionary were they using. The racist's bedside dictionary?

Now, the customer filing a legal complaint is a joke. And I also find that last line of the story quite funny:
“I had friends over from St. Lucia yesterday and they wouldn’t sit on the couch.”

Moore wants compensation
Moore is consulting with a lawyer and wants compensation. Last week, she filed a report with the Ontario Human Rights Commission.
Commission spokeswoman Afroze Edwards said the case is in the initial stages and could take six months to two years to resolve.
Moore, 30, has three young children, and said the issue has taken a toll on her family.
“Something more has to be done. We don’t just need a personal apology, but someone needs to own up to where these labels were made, and someone needs to apologize to all people of color,” Moore said. “I had friends over from St. Lucia yesterday and they wouldn’t sit on the couch.”
NUT UP YOU STUPID VICTIM.

I should have added that the n-word isn't really used in Canada. "St. Lucia" is code word though. I mean no white people have ever lived in St. Lucia, ever.
So, if you are walking down the street in Toronto, be careful not to say to someone: "Hey, St. Lucian."

For all you people who think she should just "get over it," get back to me when you buy a piece of fruit and it has "Calculator Ovaries and Balloons" stamped on it. If you can see that and get over it, maybe then I'll listen to you. Welcome to Hollywood.

Once again, American imperialism running roughshod over Canadian sovereignty. :)

Dola,
I don't understand what type of compensation she expects to get. It's not like someone maliciously did this too her. It's called a fucking mistake, get a fucking clue stupid woman.

Presumably, once she gets compensated for what happened, she'll then turn around and pay the offenders "to own up to where these labels were made, and .... apologize to all people of color." Or, maybe she'll throw a couch-burning pizza party or something with the money.

I have a few pics of some funny translations from the far east. One is a resturant menu with an item called "spicey rape".
