http://abcstlouis.com/news/nation-world/oregon-bakery-fires-employees-for-denying-black-woman-service-after-closingBlack woman walks into a bakery 10 minutes after closing time, was told they can't serve her because they are closing and have already turned away other customers (who were white) but get sacked anyway.
> In one statement, "Back To Eden Bakery" says that according to its own surveillance video, a black woman named "Lillian", who is well known in the area as a "professional equity activist", entered at 9:06 p.m., after the bakery's closing time. Employees had also turned off the "Open" sign, but several customers (all white) who had already ordered were still inside. Two other white women who went to the bakery two minutes before "Lillian", and were also informed that the business was closed for the night.
> The bakery's statement says that even though it does not consider the employees to be racist and that they were following the business's protocol of closing at 9 p.m., they were fired because "sometimes impact outweighs intent." The bakery also says in the statement that the way the employees went about denying the woman service, "lacked sensitivity and understanding of the racial implications at work."
> In the statement "Back To Eden" says the employees were fired because the woman and the "clamoring public" demanded they be fired.
In one statement, the bakery admitted that the employees did not necessarily do anything wrong, "this is more about how a black woman was made to feel" at the business.

@previous (D)Haggis is a savoury pudding containing sheep's pluck (heart, liver, and lungs); minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, traditionally encased in the animal's stomach.
In Britannia that is a pudding - This in USA is pudding

@previous (G)The story as posted by Svet has as the businessman I am at times got me to think - How could this food cart employ and fire two employees when there was based on photo just room for ONE person nor room for anyone to enter as customer? So I dug deep deep and found there is more to the story

This's why Trump won. The left wing loonies are what's wrong with America, so a shift to the right's inevitable. Thank's

Freedom of speech laws, man. Finally speech literally is being blocked by the government and righties want to argue to support it. Ridiculous after all these years screaming about freedom of speech when it's literally not even the government infringing on a right.
The president can block your speech, who cares, but if Twitter bans me for racism that's what violates my rights? Lol.
Stupid and backwards, but were talking about incel righties aren't we.

Wouldn't it be great if we could return to the days when we could say "Get the fuck out, we don't want your kind in here!" and get a standing ovation from the gallery for saying it?
