Chipotle Employees Greet Cops With “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” Protest – Cops Leave Without Ordering
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 12/29/14 | Jim Hoft

Chipotle employees greeted a group of officers at the restaurant with a “hands up, don’t shoot” protest.
The New York police officers left without ordering.

A Chipotle representative responded to the incident.
They took appropriate action against the employee involved.

On Dec. 16, a group of eight NY police officers came to one our Brooklyn restaurants at about 6:15 PM, and before approaching the counter saw a single Chipotle employee raise her hands in what appears to have been a spontaneous, unplanned gesture of protest directed at the police. The group of officers then left without ordering food. In no way was this statement from our employee consistent with our culture and values. Quite the contrary. We work very hard to make all of our customers feel welcome in our restaurants.

Since being notified of this incident, we have conducted a review to determine what happened, including review of video footage from security cameras and interviews with our restaurant team. We have also taken appropriate actions with regard to the employee involved, and reiterated to our operations teams the importance of making all of our customers feel welcome in our restaurants. No exceptions. Finally, we have apologized to many of the people who have contacted us regarding this issue.

If Chipotle doesn’t have anything to say on this, I won’t be going back.

Uno Mas is better anyway.

If I were a white cop in NYC in uniform, I’d think two or three times about eating any fast food being prepared for me by a black teen.

I recall reading that Chipotle has been in trouble for hiring illegals. And they apparently do it regularly.

Even if management did apologize, I would never go in another Chipotle. You do not know what the food you ordered would be seasoned with. or maybe you would. Since I read about Jesse Jackson, I do not order from drive throughs or eat at fast food places where the food is prepared out of my sight.

Go to a joint that’s owned by an ethnic group. Chinese, Greek, Italian, etc... Places should be safe.

Of course, the “hands up” gesture never actually happened in Ferguson, but the Left will never drop a chew toy, no matter how shredded it is.

I still can’t figure out why anyone would eat there. There are usually much better alternatives.

If they didn’t fire her, I hope no cops ever eat there again. Just think how she would adulterate their food, if she had the chance.

I am so sick and tired of this crap. All white cops ought to refuse to work in black neighborhoods.

Sounds like a safe place to rob. Response time will be significant.
