8. Good for you, what they did was illegal.
My father had the same thing happen to him back in the mid-1980's at a Fargo Walgreen's Drug Store. Now my father is a Turkish immigrant, and his accent was still thick back then (moreso than today), and in those days, Fargo was as white as polished porcelain, and not diverse whatsoever. We were the only Muslim people in the city, I think. These were the days when Americans hated the Iranians, and anyone of Middle Eastern descent (much like today, but moreso). So anyway, he had to purchase some medication refills, when the manager asked him for THREE forms of ID, two of which asked were credit cards. Well, my father cursed him out like crazy, stormed out of the store, and threatened to file a civil lawsuit. The manager was fired, which was good in the end.
