Why on earth is he being seen as a hero? It’s a liberal trick. It’s becoming more obvious by the minute.

Then Leslie Garrett answered…

Joann Fleenor a liberal stunt?? Really??? I guarantee you if this was a liberal stunt this man would not have stood up for what is right! A liberal stunt would have just cowardly walked away and hidden and then done something else stupid with no effect.

This man stood up at the exact moment when real action was needed.

Some suspect that alcohol may have been involved

Many are also angry.

I respect the man who is speaking here very much; he means business. I will not spend a cent in this place.

She laughs for me. Neither of them cares, except for that grin on her face.

I just saw the video. One of the guys standing there is a friend of mine. I felt sorry for all of them. I appreciate the guy who stood up for his friends, man. I’m telling you, this Trump effect is taking over. The sad thing is some people will find absolutely nothing wrong with it!!!!

Protect this man at all costs because he stands up for his friends and what is RIGHT and what is so terribly wrong. This old man should have been grateful that people came to work for him instead of worrying about the color of their skin.
