Penzeys CEO says Trump voters just committed the "most racist act" since segregation

The CEO of the Wauwatosa-based company Penzeys Spices is drawing social media ire from conservatives — and praise from liberals — for his comments that Republicans who voted for President-elect Donald Trump "just committed the biggest act of racism in American history since Wallace stood in the schoolhouse doorway 53 years ago."

The comments, sent in an email to Penzeys Spices customers and posted on the company's Facebook page, were apparently made in an effort to clarify a previous weekly email that CEO Bill Penzey sent to his customers. In that previous email, the very liberal Penzey — who has been known to make strong statements on his political views in the past — said "the open embrace of racism by the Republican Party in this election is now unleashing a wave of ugliness unseen in this country for decades."

Penzey then followed up to that original email with the more recent message and clarified that he didn't believe all Republicans were racist — just those who cast a ballot for Trump...

unleashing a wave of ugliness unseen in this country for decades

That's the truth, like those fools acting up at the play Mike Pence tried to enjoy.

I love Penzey’s spices, but I’m going to explore some other possibilities now. He’s been sending out his liberal tripe for some time, but this crosses my tripe threshold.

and some in his weenie hole

Try this shop in Fort Worth, TX. Besides regular spices, they have an awesome chili mix! http://www.penderys.com

This term, “racist”, has been flung around with wild abandon for several years now, and I fail to understand just what it is supposed to mean any more. Is the “Black Lives Matter” movement racist? According to a strict interpretation of the meaning, yes, it would be. How about “La Raza”, a very militant group of Chicano activists, who are fond of asserting, “Entre La Raza todo. Fuera de La Raza nada” (Inside the community/people, everything. Against the community/people, nothing)? Isn’t that pretty exclusive as regards EITHER black people or “gringos”?

(from Merriam-Webster)

Racist is defined as:

1 - 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
2 - (a) a doctrine or political program based on the assumption of racism and designed to execute its principles
(b) a political or social system founded on racism
3 - racial prejudice or discrimination

This guy has been a jack ass for years.

However his sister who actually took over their father’s spice company is the real deal.

They never interject politics into the business.

"just committed the biggest act of racism in American history since Wallace stood in the schoolhouse doorway 53 years ago."

Because voting for a "White" man instead of a "White" woman is racist...

Well, OK then...

Up his!

CAIR
NAACP

racist

Eyes glazed over.

[MamaB]

Yeah. Never heard of them.

[AlaskaErik]

Wallace was a Democrat at the time. Want to know more about racism? Read the book “Wrong on Race”. It will tell all about the racist history of the Democratic Party.

[AZLiberty]

Thank you. I have a cupboard full of Penzey’s spices and even a shelf in the freezer to keep little-used spices fresh, but the next time I need something I’ll try Pendereys. I don’t have to wonder if they’ll insult me when I “walk in” to their store.

If a store owner spewed that Penzey crap at me as I walked in the door, you can bet I’d walk right out without buying a damn thing. Why should the Internet be any different?

[dainbramaged]

Democrats haven’t been this pissed since Republicans took away their slaves.
Post of the day. Well done.

[sevlex]

This is a real shame. My wife LOVES Penzey’s, especially their Foxpoint blend.

Now she’s done with them and will support a local company in the Denver area call Savory Spice Co.

Funny thing is she’s a registered dem. Their neo-communist demagoguery is too much for her these days.

[trebb]

Never heard of him or his spices.

[ought-six]

Penzey’s? Is that like that little plastic dispenser that you flick to get a little piece of candy out of? I had one when I was a kid in the 1950s, along with a yo-yo and a Fanner Fifty.

[MAGA2017]

Some kind of deranged species of libtard, I guess.

[CriticalJ]

If the situation were reversed, this CEO would be getting a tax audit soon.
