McDonalds went on a “just black tummies matter” advertising campaign not so long ago. It was blatantly racial. I think they were hiring mostly black, too.

Fast Food in general has benefited in the Billions from EBT, which we all know has exploded since Obama became president.

I know that Yum Brands (KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, etc) accept EBT. Not sure if McDonalds does.

And in connection with the recent “activism” of interrupting white people’s brunches, there were some Twitter threats by self-described black restaurant employees to spit in the food of whites

If "protesters" showed up to "confront" me after I paid for my meal, I would confront their own behavior with the Word of God in the Bible.

It could be a witnessing opportunity. It sure is obvious by their actions that they don't have a foundation in Him.

One time I was assigned to find a black multi-felon who reportedly had a pretty strong sexual appetite. Ran all the standard checks, profiled him, ran his criminal history, you name it. I found out he had an usual street name when he was arrested so I did checks online and came up with a Facebook under his street name (confirmed it with other info about him which was referenced in the homepage. I set up a fake Facebook page with some pics of a black female tht matched his “tastes”then added his friends. He later added me but not before I got hundreds of messages from horndog ghettoytes wanting my “digits” and wanting to chat. Man they were relentless. I had to tell them i was attached and relgious to get them to lay off and when I did I had black preacha’s trying to hook up with “me”. Damn I think that’s all they think about. No wonder so many of ‘em are out o work. BTW I did catch the felon after setting up a “date” with him then having a squad car pick him up...lol

I sometimes grab a quick lunch at the nearby Steak And Shake. Some of the gals have been very sullen, and unpleasant to deal with. I put on the charm, and some come around. But the ones who don’t, don’t seem to last long at that franchise. There’s a beautiful Black girl working the counter now. She’s friendly, and her smile lights up the room. Good parenting I’d bet. Were I 40 years younger, I’d be chasing her around the parking lot!

Unfortunately McDonald’s along with the rest of the fast food industry has turned into 100% garbage. It’s not food!

If you give a dam about your health. Avoid these places as much as possible. The important thing is to get your nutrition.

When you get your neutralists, your hunger will go away and you will feel much better.

Good catch.

"President Obama used his State of the Union Address to highlight a pivot to policies he claims will strengthen the middle class. As the last six years have instructed, President Obama’s rhetoric has a tortuous relationship with reality. As a new campaign by the Job Creators Network called Defend Main Street highlights, recent action by his Administration threatens almost 1 million small businesses. The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an unelected government body enforcing parts of the nation’s labor laws. Late last year, very soon after hundreds of NLRB decisions were thrown out by the US Supreme Court, the Board’s General Counsel recommended that the McDonald’s Corporation be considered a “joint employer” in lawsuits and complaints against individual franchise business owners. In other words, the McDonald’s Corporation would be liable for many legal actions against individual owners of McDonald’s franchise restaurants, even though the corporation had no involvement in the day-to-day management of the restaurant."

Well well well. Follow the corruption back to the homosexual Muslim Marxist - - again.

And the greedy scumbag trial lawyers who give Million in contributions to Democrats. They always want to sue those with deep pockets.

They have ruined the Medical Insurance industry, why not ruin all franchises?

I’m at a Panera Bread every Friday with co-workers, since they offer healthier options.

Panera is another place I'll go to.

“the Southern state of Virginia”...... Never miss a chance to take a slap at the South and to regionally profile

I noticed that as well.

"reduce the number of African-American employees and hire more white employees,"

Yeah like how often do you hear “the northern state of Michigan” in a story like this.

Virginia! Inbred, ingrown red necks!

Exactly - nothing like affirmative action and taxpayer paid legal pimp to turn off any business from hiring blacks. The sad thing is the good blacks end up suffering.

I was just trying to recall that campaign, “365/black” or something like that?

This media campaign and program must have cost McDonalds a lot of bucks.

the majority of their advertising is oriented to blacks.

Another comment: on television, you will quickly notice that there must be a black person in every single commercial.

It is so blatant now that SNL made fun of the practice.

“I went to a Chick Fil A last month. It was the antithesis of McDonald “

I agree. I went to one not long ago and it was a pleasure eating there. The staff is very friendly, service is great and the food delicious and the place spotless. I’ve been back several times.

I’ve often said if an alien landed and started watching US television, he would infer that the demographic is 30% black and 30% hispanic and 30% gay.

i personally have had efu##ingnough of this crap..

i am a white male..

i was fired from a job because my name ends in “ski”..

i was denied jobs because my name ends in “ski”..

i got bad reviews because i was a “dumb pollack”..

i was denied a job, by a fortune 100 company because a blond bitch that would not even look me in the face said, and i damn quote..
“ i am sorry sir, your scores on the test should guarantee you a position here, but you are the wrong sex and the wrong color. If you were a black female, you would not even have had to take the test. I am sorry, but we have nothing for you here”.

my father had 25 years at this company, and scored a 96 on a test that most scored in the mid 40’s on...

i challenge ANY colored person, male or female, to tell me this was EVER said to them...

‘cuz if it was not, i got some real choice 4 letter, and even some 5 and 6 letter, words to describe you..

wanna call me a racist or a sexist??

you just grabbed a tiger by the tail. sheep...
