Yes! Thank you for seeing my point and speaking up.

I never said I was upset by the manager asking me to leave. I totally understand this rule and had I known, I would have complied from the start.
I am going to call the store, get this manager's name and call the corporate office and comlplain. Just like that, plain and simple, without raising my voice or screaming profanity (lol)....I'm just going to state the facts and tell them that he made me extremely uncomfortable and that his behavior was out of line, etc. I know that the way he acted WAS out of line. Not the asking me to leave part (and I'll make this clear as well) - I'm sorry for breaking the rule, I didn't know it was a rule and I'm now happy to know it and obey it - but regardless of what happened the manager's behavior was borderlined assault, he treated me like a common criminal, humiliated me in front of other customers, belittled my intelligence, didn't respect my personal space, etc.
I'm not going to call the cops or file a lawsuit. I agree, there are too many frivilous lawsuits going on in this country and gosh I don't even have the time or the money to invest into such a matter. I don't think anyone was really suggesting I do so, as much as suggesting I use "that card" to get their attention, which is definitely something to consider.
