Good job, employer. If I want any POV from my server I'll ask for it. I just want her to get my food, ring my order up, and accurately count my change.

If I'm a manager or own a business, you can wear what you want on your free time and not work. And remember leftist, what a burger is a private company and can do as it wishes.
We're just waiting for the IPO

Look at it this way, we are increasingly becoming more and more of a 'police state' in this country...police are looking and acting more and more like military troops, heck, we even give police dept used military vehicles now, have you seen the big MRAD painted dull black with POLICE painted on it?


Is this the kind of 'police' we want here in the US? I surely do not!


You can see MAJOR differences in law enforcement from decades ago, compared to modern days, its almost night and day difference, and how aggressively they pursue drug crimes, (laws that are not even constitutional to begin with!!)...what happened to police protecting citizens rights? Doesnt that come before law enforcement.

That’s not what Black Lives Matter claims to be fighting for. If they really wanted to reform certain laws they’d have welcomed the libertarians in this fight, but they state they want to abolish police and prisons. They make ridiculous demands that will never be implemented. Clearly the goal is chaos until the election and they have figured out there is money to get from this.

I say every person who had their business or home vandalized, looted or burned need to file lawsuits naming the city and state governments and Black Lives Matter. They got a billion dollars in corporate donations. If there is anything left after the Democrat politicians take their part then it should be fair game (actually the political donations should be fair game too). There are university studies showing the (not) peaceful protests were mostly BLM protests. There are organization leaders on record supporting looting as reparations and various media and political figures stating that protests aren’t supposed to be polite and people’s property isn’t important because they have insurance.

I think Macy’s and other stores named by the BLM leader should particularly sue as they have been slandered and told they profited off of slavery.

All racist employees wearing a BLM shirt which represents hate and violence. should be fired immediately and blocked from getting unemployment.
