Giant Food / Giant of Maryland - Service refusal to blacks

Racist Anita Kelly of Telford, PA refuses service to blacks at Giant Food store, Doylestown, PA

Is this a ripoff? Is it a hate crime? Well in the light of the latest riots there's a horrific side to a our culture we have to face and fix. I think it starts with people stepping up and taking are of each other, regardless of race. In Doylestown PA, there is a grocery store called Giant Food Store. It's in a shopping center with a now bankrupt and closed K
Mart. I used to shop at this particular Giant Food Store but during this pandemic, I've seen things there that make my stomach turn.

At a time when we should all be coming closer together some stores like this one signify a dark side to our culture which we need to fix. That is, the problem with race relations. I've seen other posts online recently about both of these two people that work at this Giant, so now I want to talk about my interactions with them. The lady Anita Kelly and her manager Joe Carwithen, have had some pretty disgusting dealings with locals and I have no idea how Giant keeps them employed. I was buying beer for the weekend, I had friends coming that night. There was a middle aged black man who was trying to make a purchase with this Anita Kelly, and her manager Joey or Joseph Carwithen was there and they were arguing with this man.

The things that these two people were saying to this man are just so unbelievable that I can't even bring myself to type the words. The first part I caught was Anita saying, "Look cockroach, you smell like the back of my toilet, I'm refusing you service". before the man could respond Joe said, "she has the right to deny you service for any reason, and i'm backing her up." the man said, "i didn't realize i smelled, I'll go buy deoderant, then will you serve me?" Anita hits back verbally again, "just get a job and get out, we won't ever serve you here. I work this counter all the time, now seriously, get the f*&^ out...NOW!"

Then she and Joseph started laughing and Anita put her head on Joe's shoulder and they kept laughing. The man turned and was going to leave, he didn't realize he still had his beer case in his hands. Joe Carwithen comes around the counter and said, "nope! I'll be taking that...the door is right there, bu bye!.

Now you tell me. Is this a ripoff or a hate crime or both?

I worked with Anita Kell in the Deli at Giant food store in Doylestown Pennsylvania. Two things I hate: Racists, and bullies. Anita Kelly is a complete *** It's true what these people are saying about her.

She literally drops F-bombs on kids at Giant. Yet they still employ her. And I knew Joe Carwithen at Pennridge High School.

He would sit in the cafeteria and mock the handicapped children and special needs students. Somebody needs to make this public, like, video record them both or put flyers in their neighborhood or parking lot of Giant Food Store in Doylestown PA.

Very happy to see Anita Kelly (aka Anita Serafin) and her human turd of a manager counterpart Joseph Carwithen are being reported. They have behaved badly towards many black people of Doylestown PA and harmed many other emotionally. Keep these posts coming up so Giant Food stores know who have under their roof

It's true guys, there are Racist and bully people employed there at this store. I've been to Giant Food Store in Doylestown Pennsylvania and I have actually encountered both Anita Kelly and Joseph Carwithen. Anita uses an alias Anita Serafin as well. It's shocking how low this particular Giant Grocery Story has fallen. Doylestown is a great place to raise a family. I stopped going to Giant after my run in with Anita Kelly, she used to work in the Delhi section, wow sooooo unbelievably belligerent and full have hate, but this Joe Carwithen guy is there to back her up apparently when a customer complaint is filed. There's another manager there named Brian. I'm not sure what his last name is, but he gets right in there and bullies customers like Anita and Joey. I moved my business to Acme, they treat customers well and it's always a good experience.

Giant Food / Giant of Maryland - Anita Kelly, a convicted felon is employed at giant food store

On January 19, 2010, Anita Kelly (aka Anita Serafin) employed at the Doylestown, PA location of Giant Food Store, plead guilty for selling PCP and Marijuana to an 11 year old girl. Case number 38-1-17CR-[protected] in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

We brought this to the Giant Grocery stores management and they just laughed at us. You decide if we are crazy:

Now she sells beer and wine at the Giant Food Store 4357 Swamp Rd, Doylestown, PA 18901. This is illegal and bad business and it's not safe! She has an extensive criminal record that also includes Prostitution, violence, other drug felonies and more. She even has an alias here https://m.facebook.com/public/Anita-Serafin#!/profile.php?id=100005065184536

We attempted to notify the Doylestown Giant Food Store manager Joe H. Carwithen (aka Joey Carwithen and Joseph Carwithen) we don't want a criminal having open access to children in a public place. He laughed at us and said, "Well, there are other grocery stores in Doylestown, I never want to see you in Giant again". So in shock, we did even more digging and found out that Giant Food Story has a problem with hiring criminals and people who just don't understand how a civil community operates. Joey graduated from Pennridge High School (Perkasie, PA) and is an absolutely notorious racist and all around creepy pervert. Th stories that his classmates told us about this individual only beg the question, why isn't he in prison? Joe covered up Anita Kelly's criminal record and gave her a job here in our close knit community. Tell us what you think!

I cannot tell you how happy I am that Anita Kelly (aka Anita Serafin) and her human turd of a manager counterpart Joseph Carwithen are being exposed for this. I literally complained about their treatment of an old lady. Giant Grocery or Giant Food Store, whatever you call it needs to get out of Doylestown PA. Keep these posts coming friends!

Yes my cousin was one of the little boys she(Anita Kelly) used to deal drugs to…

I live down the street from Anita Kelly in Telford, Pennsylvania. She’s know for being an absolute hateful, drama seeking, sociopath. The things she says are nothing short of shock-ably offensive and fueled by an extremely deep seeded hate for everything and everyone. I see the dirt being posted on these forums now about her, and believe me, you aren’t even scratching the surface. My cousin was one of the little boys she used to deal drugs to. When i heard that she was allowed to sell alcohol at the Doyelestown Pennsylvania Giant Food Store, I was shocked and horrified. I mean don’t they do any background checks on these people? She used to use the last name Anita (Kelly) Serafin. Maybe the Giant Grocery store did do a background check but didn’t check her other alias. Keep these posts coming guys! Don’t let this devil of a women hurt anymore children, disabled veterans or innocent people.

Oh and on the Joe (Joseph) Carwithen character, I called a friend that graduated with him at Pennridge High School in Perkasie, Pennsylvania. He was a really devious guy, he lives in Pipersville PA or something now. He was known for spreading false rumors about this special needs girl that were pretty horrific and painful. Giant Food Store in Doylestown doesn’t seem to care to much about the safety of psychological health of their customers. That’s really disgusting.
