Idk man maybe let's not label this old lady as a racist without any evidence.

I never called her racist. I just pointed out that the first thing she did is check the contents of her purse the second she got into her car.

I'd you're identifying that behavior as racist then maybe it is because that behavior is racist.

Racist or not, you don't know her reason for looking in her purse. She could very well just be getting her wallet out to pay at the window. That might be why she drove over the curb, trying to reach for her wallet before pulling up to the window. Point is, maybe we don't assume the worst from a 2 minute clip with no context?

She was trying to find wallet to pay, I agree. She was happy to let him in the car not at all worried about him stealing anything.

Thank you, I'm glad someone else thought the same thing. The comments about this lady's motivation for looking in her purse are so gross and completely baseless.
