davvi User ID: 3677166 United States 05/15/2013 02:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I operate a small business at which I accept checks. Quoting: Enorm Uskowk I constantly get black people bouncing checks every time they shop here. Just yesterday I had a check from a black guy for $6 bounce! How can I not accept checks from black people without getting sued for discrimination? I have to accept checks because I do have customers that have to write checks from their company's account. Man I feel stuck. You can join a bad check data base or begin your own. And once someone has bounced a check you are not obligated to accept another check from that person. |

It only takes a few seconds. I have no idea if the charge a monthly fee for the service and equipment or if it is a per transaction fee. Might be worth it and then you don't have to take anyone's bad checks. |

They'll steal anything that isn't bolted down. Those little thefts of packs of gum and other small things start to add up. In St Louis there are tons of stores where the entire inventory is behind walls, even the clerk. It's like Hannibal Lector. |

When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men - yes, black men as well as white men - would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And the right to write their own bad checks? |
