I don't want to be suspended.

You accused me of grilling first, which by your own definition would be "just outright attacking".

I am one of many.


And with as lousy as they're doing right now, yeah, they do need to worry about each and every customer lost!

Absolutely positively odd that Macys did that.

It's not the place for it.

Definitely a inconvenience.

Now if they announced BEFORE the closing of the doors that they were going to close the store for 9 minutes and people chose not to leave -- that's on them I guess.......
My thoughts too although I am truly fatigued by all the coverage so I've just ignored any news channels for awhile. Time to go for a bike ride and enjoy the beautiful sunshine.

It's not a suspension. It's a 10-yard penalty.

Seriously?? Locked in the store for 9 minutes.... Well I would have started smashing the doors to get out and if they told me to stop or else they would call the cops I would say "why, I'm just a democrat that has a right to peaceful protest??"

Macy's is struggling to stay afloat as it is so this was a very stupid move.

All of this nonsense will only get more Dems to #WalkAway and vote, at best, for Trump and every Repub on the ballot or, at worst, they will stay home so we can return to sanity.

Let's also remember the more money flowing into BLM coffers, the more money the DNC gets courtesy of Soros' ActBlue PAC. Dems are so easily led like lambs to the slaughter.

”We are in the middle of a nine-minute silence to honor the life of George Floyd, and the lives of all black people. The doors will open upon completion.”

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.
Which store was this, I'm just curious?
