"John Walter Miles was shopping with his girlfriend when he became irate because the clerk refused to sell them alcohol. Miles refused to leave and called an employee a racial slur...Miles has been charged with aggravated breach of peace and trespassing."

Well. That proves it.
He's so drunk he's swaying on his feet. It's Black people's fault he's so drunk in public a grocery clerk won't sell him hooch. He revealed exactly what he thinks about Black people and his own son, if he has one. He doesn't understand that Racism is more than not liking someone. It's built in to the very fabric of our society.
He doesn't realize that no lives matter until Black lives matter, too.
Side note: Pretty sure he's laid hands on that girl in a less than friendly way. If he hasn't gotten a domestic disturbance arrest on his record already, one's coming.

(15,944 posts)I noticed how she was trying to push him from entering the store, and how he just pushed her around.
Nope he's not worth whatever it is he provides currently. He has issues far beyond his bigotry. He has a drinking issues as well.

(82,849 posts)Totally unsolicited free advice for the girlfriend (and worth every penny): Get out. Now. If you find yourself in this position once, it's time to get out. From her body posture, I'm guessing this isn't the first time she's had to put herself between John and the trouble he's trying to cause. Run away, for your own safety and sanity.

By Alexandra Hutzler On 4/22/21 at 12:29 PM EDT
Social media users connected Miles to the U.S. Army, stating he was a training officer.
Leslie Ann Sully, a media relations officer at Fort Jackson in South Carolina, told Newsweek that they were "aware of the video on TikTok and the person in question is no longer in the Army. He was already out of the Army at the time of this incident."
According to the Sumter Item, a local newspaper, Miles' LinkedIn profile said he was a drill sergeant leader at the U.S. Army Drill Sergeant Association. The profile appears to have been taken down.
Wonder when he got out and why.
