Can you even put a shine on orange basketball clown shoes? Next, I'm sure this cowering leftist simp will say we also need to walk up to homosexuals to polish their shoes and their knobs. He's calling his customers and employees racists. Good move, man.

I'm 80 miles away from the nearest CFA and taught myself how to clone their signature product at home a few years ago, so it's not too likely I'll be going out of my way to spend my money there again anytime soon.

This guy has made stupid comments before, so how long until franchisees start to sue for harming their investments?

He was the darling of conservatives for a while there - Christian, closed on Sundays, the guy is pro life, against gay marriage, etc.

Took a lot of heat back in 2013 when a crazed leftist loon shot up the Family Research Council because they were against queers getting married.

But now this crap? Liberals will still boycott CFA, and now so will conservatives.

and shine their shoes to show repentance for their sins of racism.

What "sins of racism"? Sorry, I don't see any.

If he's speaking in generalities, then give me a general example or two of white racism. Can anyone?

I believe those traditions derived from his late biz-founding father; this is the kid, who's behaving like a leftist loon who was born into wealth. Stopped donating to Salvation Army & Samaritans' Purse etc. and now this crap.

Leftists already hate the chain, now they're going to lose stalwart supporters. Maybe they'll have the opportunity to be closed every day instead of just Sunday now.

Not me. The only racism I've experienced are black attitudes against whites. Yes, I've experienced personally.

The only racism I've experienced are black attitudes against whites.

Here's the thing. What you experienced was prejudice, not racism.

Now it would be racism if a black refused to hire you, paid you less, refused to serve you at a restaurant, refused to cut your hair, etc. because you were white. That's racism and it's against the law.

Prejudice exists on both sides and there ain't no law that will eliminate it. Nor would we want such a law.

Meaning, if we continue to call "prejudice" racism, then racism will never go away.

Without him giving the facts, WWG1WWA could have experienced either prejudice; racism or racial discrimination. Reason: Prejudice is an unjustified or incorrect attitude (usually negative) towards an individual based solely on the individual’s membership of a social group. Racism is a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race Racial Discrimination is the behavior or actions, usually negative, towards an individual or group of people, especially on the basis of sex/race/social class, etc. Therefore, it would be racial discrimination “if a black refused to hire WWG1WWA, paid him less, refused to serve him at a restaurant, refused to cut his hair, etc. because he was white." That's racial discrimination and it's against the law. There are no laws against prejudice or racism, while there are laws against racial discrimination. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits racial discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

Racism is a belief that ... racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

So is that what this is all about -- blacks looting, rioting, burning, assaulting because whites think they're superior? Your examples of racial discrimination are correct, but blacks can't be referring to those acts because they don't exist anymore.

In my opinion, whites treat blacks differently because of what they've seen, read, or heard of their behavior. That treatment is based on prejudice, not some feeling of superiority. And the only way to end prejudice is for blacks to change their behavior.

I am in complete agreement …

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits racial discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

And should only restrict government. It should not apply to private businesses or individuals.

Might that result in discrimination? Google "cancel culture" and you tell me.

Like "reverse discrimination" – I can see that.
