What "change"? That almost sounds like a veiled threat.

Where has anyone posted that?

Once again, loons exaggerate and lie about what is being stated.

Kindly post the link where the OP complained that this delayed her shopping plans by 9 minutes - and since you used quotation marks the wording will be exactly what you typed.

What change? Cowering to violent groups like BLM and ANTIFA like you Leftists do? No freaking way. Bring it on.

The Revolution is now 50% off at Macy's ....

I remember an old 60s radical telling me he knew it was all over when he started to see Coke ads on TV with hippies and mass-produced plastic peace signs on sale in every mall.

As a Chinese philosopher said, the best way to defeat your enemy is to make him your friend.

Don't underestimate the ability of capitalism to absorb its opponents.

Macy's management may feel they are being sincere with this gesture, but in the end they are still Macy's and their business is selling clothing made in sweatshops at a high mark-up.

They know their customers well, leftish politics are what many middle class white women are buying these days, so they include it as "value added" in hopes of increasing sales.

But "dozens of black people are murdered every weekend and they don't have moments - MINUTES - of silence." So you see, THIS one black person didn't rate those 9 minutes, according to the OP.

We don’t have this level of homage for a United States President! Stop elevating this guy as if he were a saint. It’s ridiculous.

P.S. What about the lives of white people? Eh.
I would of demanded they open the door or just walk out one of the emergency exits. It’s one thing if they want to not open on time and hold their own little moment of silence, but don’t think of locking me inside. What kind of crap is that. Of course that’s if exactly what happened.

Not me dear. The young people around the world. Not going to stop progress - it’s their time. You are free to bunker up and line up your weapons n throw on your tactical gear - they aren’t coming to your house. Government has to change and it will.

I agree. He is not a saint and I wouldn't pay 9 minute homage. Just a gimmick to attract customers.
