Making Staff up While Black

Georgia state Rep. Erica Thomas was left in a right old state after she blatantly ignored the 10 items or less instruction in a local store and was called out on it.

She was called a "lazy bitch" by Eric Sparkes then went on to claim he told her to "go back to where you came from." She later appeared on video visually upset.

Except he didn't and strenuously denies it. In fact the only person that was told to "go back" was Sparkes..... by Thomas!

She was on camera when;

The following day, as Thomas spoke to reporters about her claim, the accused man confronted her in front of the store while the cameras were rolling. The man, Eric Sparkes, claimed that Thomas was using him to manipulate a political stunt and that he was in no way 'racist,' as Thomas had alleged. Sparkes, an outspoken Democrat of Cuban heritage, admitted that he did confront the pregnant lawmaker in anger after she violated the store policy of bringing too many items to the express checkout lane, but never told her to "go back" to where she came from.

Once she was outed as not only lazy but a liar she said;

Quote:

"I don't know if he said 'go back,' or those types of words ... I don't know if he said 'go back to your country' or 'go back to where you came from,' but he was making those types of references is what I remember." "So you don't remember exactly what he said?" a reporter asked Thomas. "No, no, definitely not. But I know it was 'go back' because I know I told him to 'go back,'" the lawmaker responded.

She adamantly refuses to backtrack.

This is a lawmaker?
