Went into Walmart to purchase lightbulbs. Left Walmart and recieved 4.4 million. 😊
Why can't this happen to me. ugh
@@danhipps420 You got caught stealing the light bulb?
State attorney general got 70% of the 4.4 million
@@richardthetroll6758 and that’s 1.2 million for nothing who gives a f 😂
are you black and claim racism over anything
Sadly, the only way to deal with these types of things is to hit them in the pockets.
Let them pay for your pain...
@@danbrand2455 if not for pain, then its for their 4.4 million dollar fuck up of an employee they didnt take action against sooner.
Are you insane we are talking about 4 million dollars?Do you have any CONCEPT of money at all?
Minorities don't have the same concessions has None minorities. Walmart knew this employee was a problem. However, they let him terrorize customers and didn't fire him.
This is KEY!
Should all the customers who were terrorized get $4.4 million?
@@jf8050 Depend on lots of factors but Wal-Mart knew what their employee was doing.
@@a.lawrence4969 It depends on what factors? I imagine he did something quite similar to this.
@@jf8050 If they were treated like a animal. Wal-Mart makes this money in a month.
Walmart was willing to back up their rogue employee…No. Matter. What.
Multnomah County Sheriff's Shift Cmdr. Sgt. Bryan White said he and deputies on his shift had become "extremely frustrated with a pattern of behavior that they had identified" in the employee calling 911 to report” dangerous active situations such as customers physically assaulting him or loss prevention employees or other Walmart employees while trying to steal and then the deputies determining that that never actually happened."
That employee cost Walmart a hefty punishment. I bet they fired him after this one.
Walmart said in a statement: "He was NEVER stopped by security, and he refused to leave the store." Question: Who asked him to leave the store?
Clearly Walmart wasn't believed.
@Phillip Ramos Adorable Phillip. Saying something that stupid with an aura of superiority. Simply adorable.
Whats $40/h x 40hr week x 52 weeks x 50 years?
Is that number less than $4.4 million?
If so, you need to go back to counting blocks in preschool.
People successfully retire who make less than $40 an hour, right?
Glad I could help clear that up for you. Put your dunce cap back on and go back to the corner. The rest of the class is trying to learn.
Question to Wal-Mart: "So, what was the justifiable reason why he was asked to leave the store? Since he wasn't stealing, he made no threats, and your employee who called the police changed his own story several times? Are Black customers always asked to leave for no justifiable reasons?"
@Phillip Ramos so u dont think 4.4m is enough to retire on??
@Phillip Ramos he is about 60 so 4.4m will last him if handled right...heck some people have blown 25-50m or more
It’s a shame it takes a lawsuit for businesses to treat all customers decency. Unfortunately, without LARGE financial penalties no changes will be made.
Businesses don't treat customers in a decent manner, they only care when it's a black person. Hispanics don't get treated fairly, nor will anyone sue for us.
Would have been cheaper to hire smart people.
Had a similar situation happen to me at a plaza. I said a few words to a Security manager via social media and he took it to the next level. His actions cleared everything but months later when he saw me at Starbucks located at a shopping plaza, he told one of the plaza managers ro have me banned from the plaza due to the words I typed ro him via social media. I'm a major supporter for starbucks. Starbucks even invited me to one of their new locations to be a judge at a staff event.
The plaza manager banned me because of what the security manager told him. I never had any problems with anybody at the plaza until the sucrity company that the security manager works for acquired a contract to secure the plaza. I spoke with an attorney and the attorney told me that I have a case. The actual HR/manager from the plaza wouldn't return any of my attorneys calls that was left with the plazas receptionist.
I can sue the plaza for listening to the security manager. I was going to that plaza for a couples years before that security company took over the contract from the previous security company. I never had any problems with anyone at the plaza and I have a budding lucrative business with Starbucks. Why should I not come back to the plaza just because a security manager didn't like what I said to him months before the company he represents took over the plaza?
The security manager was using his business relationship for personal gain. Nothing between him and I has nothing to do with the plaza.
I'm very pleased to see this man awarded for discrimination.
@@baileygregg6567 Walmart fired my brother-in-law for trying to stop a thief with a cart full of TV's when he was a greeter.

Nope. Dangerous precedent
@@openmindz4628 because he broke company policy, duh.
👍👍👍👍👍
Wally World just talk that L and move on. You wrong and you know it. I was asked to show my receipt for a dog bed that cost $40 dollars awhile a caucasian couple was able to ride 2 expensive children bikes out the store without a blink of an eye. The manager said the employee had just recently completed a course on diversity and need more training🤦🏾♀Okay!
foff this guy should not get 4.4 million
@@jonnym4670 I agree with you that the gentleman should not get four and a half million I think he should get four and a half billion. That's the only way they'll ever change their policies or practices is when they know We the People will empty their pockets.
@@fulcheroverman5500 no matter what you will always think everything is racist so you can claim it and get 4.5 million over something stupid
You must be the owner right?
Not surprised, knowing the extreme racist history of Oregon & even recent laws.
Shameful.
Can you tell me what part of this incident screams racism or racial discrimination?
Extreme racist history?? Clearly you've never been to Oregon just like the people who criticize California who've never been there
@@thechoosentwice1312 And undercover theft security guard calling police and lying about him threatening to smack him then making him leave the store for trespassing. Need to know anything else?
@@guiltyuntilproveninnocent. That is not racism nor is that racial discrimination. In order for it to be racism or racial discrimination, the factor of race has to be present.
Where exactly is the factor of race? Is it racism simply because the customer was lack and the employee was white? Is that what racism and racial discrimination is?
@@thechoosentwice1312 “Black man in Walmart and he’s threatening to smack me” Why would he call 911 and lie like that? Please be honest.
Why didn’t the cops arrest the theft prevention employee for filing false reports? Why was he still an employee? He is loss prevention and he is a liar. Did anyone go to jail for a false claim?
Cops warned Walmart Managers the guard was making false calls to get them to come to the store. The female manage lied at her Deposition saying no one warned her about that security guard. Entire story on "The Oregonian" youtube channel.
ask the MAGA BOSS, he's still on the loose
Racist are above the criminal law.
Walmart and the other racist employees stood around and watched it happen to other Black's all the time. Glad they have to pay that Black man for the demeaning treatment that he went through!! What about the others who were treated that way by that bastard??
Walmart's racist employees are going to drive Walmart out of business.
The State Attorney General gets 70 percent of " your" settlement in Oregon wtf?
Those North-western states are worse than the south I swear.... Why does the state get 70% of MY settlement? Why? WHY!?
That's crazy smfh
Right
That can't be accurate.
Wow,dont live in Oregon move from that place.Its your money they are taking not theirs.
Making a false 911 call is a misdemeanor and 6 months of jail or 1000 fine.
Glad Officer White made everything right! Thank you
Officer Dip 💩
When i used to work at Walmart, during orientation they told us how much in settlements they pay out on average and they pretty much said to mind ourselves and not be stupid. Dude never got the memo it seems.
I hate to break it you but most everyone is treating like shit at Walmart, and they don’t seem to care
NAH
Your silly ridiculous excuse of this behavior has nothing to do with this case.
Nope..
1:58. Say no more 👀😏. Time to have my gopro and phone ready to record when I step in Walmart .
He needs to sue the lost prevention worker too! Good for him!
For sure, that man needs mandatory mental health care, he is on multiple cameras with witnesses but continues to cry wolf for police attention and watch them in action. He's not normal.
Wal-Mart claims the gentlemen was 1) Never stopped by store security and 2) Refused to leave. Which is it? He couldn't refuse to leave if never stopped by store security...... It usually takes a few moments for someone to contradict themselves but doing it in a single sentence always makes it easier.
I haven't shopped at Walmart in over 10 years.
They didn't notice.
Girl! Yes. I stopped shopping there in 2022. Walmart is really what’s wrong with the world. Seriously.
that walmart employee needs to be fired because he call the police to get this black man kill by the police
I'm always confused by the people of color phrase because it implies some people don't have a color. Which ones are they?
After Oregon's AG 70%, taxes, and (well-deserved) attorney fees I wonder how much it'll actually be?
Truth about Walmart's disrespect for it's customers and local law enforcement, but it could also include employees.
a shame 70% of that 4mil is goin back to the State.. smh..
Pay that man his money 🤑💰💸💰💸
Too bad for you no amount of money can bring back George Floyd tho…😂
@@puncha.commie194 what does George Floyd have to do with dumb ass racists at Walmart having to shell out for their stupidity.
I love dumb losers having to payout for their hate, y’all are too dumb to stop.
He doesn’t deserve a dime. Bohoo his ego and feelings were hurt. So what? Did it ever occur to any of you victims you’re your own worst enemy? Your ‘community’ has set the stereotype and now you don’t like it. Oh well.

Good for him. He has a lot of money now
If he wasn't stopped by security how and why did security ask him to leave. That statement doesn't make sense.
Everybody looking for a handout in that case everybody black that walks in Walmart should be getting paid
Yup, that will teach their ass from playing with people's time and character. Walmart will take these allegations serious now.
Walmart manager no Walmart employee stopped Mangum.
It was on video, why wasn't anyone from Walmrt charged with perjury?
Walmart is having a blow out back to school sale at all locations. If you are interested in making some big money,have their lost prevention workers follow you around the store, pick up things and put them in your cart.Your there to be profiled now.Keep doing it till you so well known in the store and sooner or later a loss prevention employee will start to give you problems.Try following a loss prevention worker around the store.It's like playing hide and seek but they always have you with their eyes above.
It’s a Walmart in Raytown Missouri that does the same thing.. they utilize over 90 percent of the police force calling for stupid stuff..
The sheriff was so cool too 😂
Wow 4.4 million just for profiling.
Just think if Mr. Mangum had been called the N word and yelled at?
Door greeters would be saying: Welcome to Mangum’s Super Store. Hope you enjoy your shopping experience
NO...
No one should ever take away the right to rob and steal. Not even Walmart.
So you think the Black man was there to rob and steal?
I’m really loving these lawsuits, because dummies don’t get it and stop that BS and by your own comment, NEVER WILL.
So until y’all do, Black people will continue to reap the benefits of your stupidity.
Facts
The Attorney finally got paid
We need this law in every state, money talks!
4/4 million wish white people had this privilege
i LOVE this. Wamarts overly aggressive loss prevention staff and the companies negligence in dealing with it cost them MILLIONS!!! so much for loss prevention amirite
Omg 😆 🤣 😂
You will never see a dime of this money Walmart will tie this up in court for YEARS !!!!!!
Great justice ❤️🙌 This finding will make a negative situation into something that will continue to be used to better improve this situation!!!
The Waltons are one of the most racist families in the country and they never fire their white employees for being racist. After at least a thousand racial incidents in Walmart stores I really don't understand why black people still shop at that store. And I wonder what would happen to Walmart if no black folks ever shopped there again. So this won't change a damn thing.
PS The Waltons are great financial donors to, who else, one Donald J Trump
I had a recent experience of a Walmart in Spring, Tx stealing $100.53 from me though electronic payment system. And for 5 days the store refused to make restitution even though I presented undisputed facts! All verified by electronic record and security footage. Instead, they dismissed me, treated me with indignation. Restitution was ONLY made when I contacted corporate electronic payment system division. Where my claim was clearly proven by their own records which the local store had access too. If their is an attorney viewing my comments. Please provide reply with your contact information.
Name of the Law firm that Sued Walmart please
1:05 the attorney sounds like a documentary from the 1940s.
WHEN YOU AS A COOPERATION KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A PROBLEM OR A TROUBLESOME EMPLOYEE AND YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT EMPLOYEE'S HISTORY OF LYING, CAUSING FAKE PROBLEMS INVOLVING THE POLICE AND THE POLICE KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM EMPLOYEE AND DID NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS WITH THAT EMPLOYEE, THEN A LARGE MILLION DOLLAR SETTLEMENT IS JUSTIFIED
SUE THEM FOR EVERYTHING THAT THEY GOT
Put the in jail. We all are going to sue now
Meet a lot of people like this. Record and report people. Everything helps
Walmart has gotten too big for their britches and believe they're Above the Law and can even make laws. I would have liked to seen the verdict turn into four and a half billion dollars instead of four and a half million. That would get a lot of entrepreneurs attention.
Hello, I was a racial profile today at Walmart. Is there anyone that could recommend a good lawyer for me? Thank you in advance
This just happened to me today at the Walmart on signal butter in Mesa , Az
I know the next time I am racially profiled I am suing for millions of dollars
Do it!
Bring back real private property. Or just run Walmart out of a house so they aren't sued for not letting someone in.
If I'm not opening my front door to a traveling holy man. I'm not doing it for a politician either. Lol.
I don't see Walmart paying this. Appeal all the way.
I was just racially profiled. Mexican lady let all her people grab all they stuff and walk off, but she held on to my stuff.
Good for him....400 years later and this BS is still going on

Walmart will not change.......treats most of their employees that way...look at the senior lady who Walmart called the cops on..she had dementia...called.the cops...cops stopped her and broke her arm...another settlement..smh
The black customer is lucky the law enforcement officers didn't murder him.
Wow! Set for life. Lawyer gets about $1m and he goes home with the rest.
Unfortunately, in Oregon state attorney general will get 70% of that settlement.
@@msreen269 wth... The settlement goes to the government? Why? How does that benefit the victim? Why?
@@heartmind6373 I have absolutely no idea, but apparently that’s how it works out there with these type of settlements. It was in the news that the AG would be receiving 70% of that settlement. I’d have to do some digging as to why that is the case. It stupid. He is the one who experienced the discrimination, but the government gets the majority of the settlement. Makes no sense.
@@msreen269 wow.... Yeah very shocking. Thanks for the info, reen.
@@msreen269 Sorry, that sounds so outrageous, that I need proof this is real. Sounds grossly unconstitutional and a massive gov't overreach. No way can this pass any due process challenge.
Don't know and understand why people ( especially blacks) keep shopping there.
And the state is taking 70% of the money. That’s ridiculous
Why we have our own businesses
Wally World in Portland, Oregon. Sad.
#WalmartDiscriminationClient. And México Of Robbery.
wallmart got fucked
walmart has embarrassed itself with a hefty price tag to boot. they had a history of false reporting they should have rectified sooner.. now they have to fight the verdict in favor of the customer and fix the p,r, snafu they have incurred on themselves.
Well when they say your gonna call the cops and you leave you look guilty
Well that judgement said otherwise. This narrative only exposes what is already evident and I'm sure that the Black people in your community recognize their enemies and will protect themselves accordingly. The pain delivered will be redistributed with equity. Every action will receive a response as it should be. The only guilty party was the management and employees of that Walmart.
They got too much $
Why you never did anything about it when u got multiple reports on this guy?? Walmart was liable for damages
I had something similar, however the employee doing this to me happened to be black himself.
So why walmart fires the guy and not put him on leave if the walmart employee didnt do anything wrong.The man still ended up with 4+ million dollarzzzz!!!
Over an light bulb?
Racial as can be is what I see.
Black is back with a pocket full of payback.
Walmart should appeal forever, this makes products more expensive for everyone. Sure that one employee is a jerk, but that shouldn't be a cash cow for this guy.
I get the receipt 🧾 check scrutinized every time I shop at Walmart. It’s purely a color choice as well my husband is white and he never gets the same treatment he’s waved off and never checked but every time I go out I’m stopped and scrutinized. I Always voice my opinion and am very vocal. It is a race profile crime.
Keep fighting against this nonsense.
Walmart needs to be sued again for seeing evidence and denying it. They Watch me all the time for discrimination reasons. I Sarcastically hold up my Receipt and look at them, while thinking to myself hey idiots i don't have to steal! SMH 🤦🏾♂️
Why do I think there is so much more to this story.
That Black man was mistreated and lied on by that white employee. What other excuses for racism do you need to make? That white man cost WallyWorld 4 million dollars because racism is in the white community's DNA.. The jury saw all of the evidence, depositions, video of the incident, witnesses and looked at all of the facts of the lawsuit and judged them guilty of discrimination based on race. I really don't know why you think there is more to this story. Racism got sued and lost and is going to continue to lose. Wally is going to pay and other Black people are going to sue them if they can't get their racism under control and leave Black people the hell alone. Doing his job professionally and with dignity was too much to ask. He lost his job when minding his own business was free. The only more to this story would be an indepth investigation done of the community that produced him. I bet that documentary would expose a whole lot of people. Brother let them know that he is not to be trifled with and definitely will not tolerate being defamed, slandered and lied on. In the end, racism continues to surround itself with enemies who intend to distribute the pain.
Their def is. Of course the sob story and creating the divide and making sure a poc is the victim gets votes
There is lol he was literally trying to do an apprehension on a totally ifferent person. This dude thought he was watching him and made a scene lmao
@@yoink___ He wasn't trying to apprehend the guy or he wouldn't have told him to leave the store and then asked the cop to trespass him from the property. Something had to occur to set all of this in motion.
@@rogersmith7808 he was investigating a couple that was shoplifting. The guy asked him if he was staring at him. He interfered with his stop, which after that he still caught the couple for shoplifting
This happened to me in Medford Oregon!!!!! Same setup!
Employees are nothing but trouble.
A store doesn't need a reason to not serve you. I have seen customers thrown out for alot less. This verdict won't stand.
He won 4.4mill
Yes, they do, bozo. LOL, clown. Try reading the story.
That what you want! But it won't happen....
Screw Walmart!!!
Ohhh it's Oregon...
He was trespassed from Walmart, however, had it been a earlier time he would have been trespassed from the entirety of Oregon since blacks were banned from the entire state....
Banned from Oregon?? Charles King what are you on! Do you live in Oregon? Do you know anything about Oregon?? Sound like a another pride boy saying the most stupid things ... Portland Oregon has a lot black people....it to bad you want us to be banned from Oregon....you can eat a donut 🍩 for saying this shit...lame ass
I bet he got fired now.
Keep profilling
Everyone needs to win.

And I'm loving it ❤️
GOOD !!!
Must be nice to be black
It damn sure is
Black people are tired of being the #1 target of racist assholes. So since these idiots don’t understand the words “STOP bothering us with your freaking hate”, then might as will get paid, and since they are too stupid to stop, there will be plenty of Black people cashing in on that stupidity.
You hate us cause you ain't us. Black don't crack and minds it's own business. Doesn't stereotype or mistreat others because of their color. We're about your actions not what you open your mouths up and spew with no common sense or decency. Being Black is beautiful because we don't have the need to colonize, subjugate, defame, slander and lie. Nobody has receipts of African Americans doing that to anyone. Get your life and close your mouth.
