      Are you referring to the "PC Woke Culture" of today? I believe if Cas was alive today he would cause a lot of those PC folks a lot of major "Butt Hurt."

    He was the real deal. Lots of clout and a salty individual. He didn't tolerate a bad check, no matter the amount. I once served a warrant for a bad check written to Cas Walker. It was for a small amount. The Court fees were probably higher than the check amount. He would post your photo and name if you wrote a bad check. America would be a much better place if we had several million more like Cas. The last time I saw him he was driving his old Rambler station wagon. I think that was about 1974.

    Now contrast that statement with what stores are doing now. They will fire an employee who trys to stop a shoplifter. I like the put you in the hospital for ten days. Instead of jail. A woman who worked at Lowes for twelve years tried to stop a shoplifter, she was assulted then Lowes fired her. I will never shop at Lowes again.
