Hold up, the place was closed when he went there?
If you gonna ride the cism wave, you can't be out here trying to have mufukkaz open up for you and shyt when they closed b! Arrange that shyt beforehand.
Man fukk this nikka and that shop.
It wasn't closed. They locked the doors when they saw him walking up, he rang the doorbell and they still didn't open. When the cops came they told him he needs to ring the doorbell (which he did) and they'll answer it (which they didn't). They weren't closed in the middle of the day on Tuesday.
Black people will continue to make these racist rich by still shopping in their establishment....
Oh okay, back to shytting on the store then

Call me Dad
no... i did not
i spoke on something... someone comes back and says something about... i have to explain in more detail... seems like i care more than i do.. it's called a discussion
my original thought was damn that's fukked up... then i go in and read the FULL police report, with times, that is there
after reading it, i said, damn those people were fukked up.. but also.. why did he continue to try to go up in there, after being shown what he was to them... before he got there, during the ordeal, and after the full explanation was made to them, they STILL asked for protection.... and dude stays?
both things can be true... that they are racist and fukk them... and he tripping for continue to patronize the store, whether he ended up buying or not.. he said he stayed and conducted business in his own tweet.. the owner said he stayed... the police report said he stayed.... i said he stayed
we can agree to disagree.. but don't tell me i'm making up shyt with no base

I can't believed he deleted the tweet. This has got to be due to Bucks PR people. No one types out a thought out response like that and then just lets it go. Jewelry store must have begged the Bucks to tell him to back off. Doesn't matter either way their rep is ruined. 
I love when shyt like this happens, the closet racists come out and talk some bullshyt.
How is he going to find black businesses especially jewelry stores in fukken Whitefish,Wisconsin?
This is from the actual police report.
On Monday, 10/19/15 at 1:20 pm, Whitefish Bay officers were dispatched to Schwanke-Kasten Jewelers as the Red Tahoe had returned. Officers met up in front of 5500 N. Berkeley which is around the corner from Schwanke-Kasten.. [sic] They observed two men in front of the store. The officer ran the license plate and it came back to a Ford dealership and came back as “No Vehicle Attached” and was not listed as stolen.
The two Whitefish Bay officers approached the two men in front of Schwanke-Kasten Jewelers and asked what was going on. A man, later identified as John Henson, informed the officer that he was there to buy his first Rolex, but every time he tries the door, it’s locked and they don’t let him in. One of the officers asks him about the dealer plates on the Tahoe. He advises the officer that he plays for the Milwaukee Bucks and that Bucks players get vehicles from this dealership. Neither officer asked Mr. Henson or his companion for driver licenses or any other identification.
The officer called dispatch to request that a Schwanke-Kasten employee come to the front door. The employee told the dispatcher to have the officer come to the back door. After my officer informed the Schwanke-Kasten Jewelers employee that it was a Milwaukee Buck, the employee came to the front door and let them in. The employee requested that an officer stand by as they looked at the Rolexes, our officers refused and left the store. The officers then left the area.
At no time did Whitefish Bay Police make any notice to merchants on Silver Spring because of these incidents.
No idea where mofos are getting the idea that the store was closed and he expected them to be open for him.
And for proverty stricken mofos talking about why did he go in and still look at the watches? Well sometimes you want to see how the watch looks like in person, how the watch looks like on your wrist etc. Of course he didn't buy the watch from there especially after his instagram post.

My God, the coli can be insufferable at times. He didn't buy anything from the store, and put them on blast on social media. Those are the facts.
He may have went back into the store to look at their watches simply to see what they had since he had been looking around for a while. Wisconsin ain't exactly a hotbed for exclusive jewelry, he could've seen something he liked and then went about procuring it from another establishment. Or, maybe he wanted to see just how racist they were. In his post he notes this had never happened to him before, he was flabbergasted by it. Maybe he wanted to let them keep digging their grave. By doing so, he now had and independent 3rd party (the police of all people) confirm these CaCs were on that
Bottomline is he did NOT buy anything and went public in encouraging others not to buy anything from them either. Y'all busy going in on him instead of focusing on that racist ass establishment...classic coli.
Nothing you said changes the fact that even after they treated him like that he was still willing to go in there and browse.
You coming up with nothing but hypothetical and talking about how Wisconsin ain't a hot bed for jewelry as though he doesn't travel around the country for 8 months of the year
Yeah I'm going at him, because he comes with this long post about how they profiled him and STILL wanted to patronize their establishment.He didn't buy anything. They didn't receive any of his money.
He probably went in to troll them
@ Going in there to troll, right. You said he didn't go in there, now it's he didn't buy anything

Reading some of their older reviews on yelp it looks like they treated some of their white customers like shyt too
This just might be one of those places that expects all of its customers to be super rich and when anybody walks in their looking like a normal person they assume you can't afford shyt in there and treat you like you're wasting their time

How is this an excuse. Fukk them.
If they want to be exclusive then do appointments only. Judging anyone on there looks is fukked up.
If I win the lottery or Come into big boy dollars imma dress like a hoodlum and troll the shot outta these racist stores. I'm not black(Mexican) but this type of shyt has happened to me. It really does make any person feel small. You do well for yourself and it doesn't even matter if you're not white

If he didn't actually buy anything then why is this an issue? Him browsing doesn't put money in their pockets.Nothing you said changes the fact that even after they treated him like that he was still willing to go in there and browse.

This is a pretty insignificant element of the story to be focusing on, doesn't make them any less racist and doesn't make him any less justified in calling them out for it.

They are trying to set it all up to make sure the city and the store don't look racist.
The Bucks said, "We appreciate the store owner reaching out to apologize and meet with John in person. It's important to us that he sees the kind of character John Henson has. John is a terrific teammate and player, and prides himself on being a good role model in the Milwaukee community."
"While this illustrates a very real issue in our society, we know this incident isn't reflective of the entire Milwaukee community. John is very appreciative of the support he has received from fans and community members across the state, and we're all looking forward to putting that support behind something positive and getting back to basketball."
Henson said, "He was sincere in his apology," Henson said of his meeting with Dixon. "He knew that shouldn't have happened. He's had some prior incidents, but it still doesn't make it right for them to do what they did. It's a real issue, but right now I want to focus on the game tonight (vs. Minnesota) and there will be time to talk about it later. I am going to do some things to raise awareness of situations like that and go from there."
