A Tennessee business cancelled their catering job with police supporters after threats from the left.
Shuford’s Smoke House says leftists threatened to burn down their business after the accepted an order from “Back the Blue” police supporters.
One local business received backlash this week after they say they were falsely accused of making a political statement with the back the blue rally.
Owners of Shuford’s smoke house say organizers of today’s Back the Blue contacted them to order food for the event.
Shuford’s says they accepted the job because they believed it was another opportunity to offer their catering services.
Once it was publicly known they took the job , the business says they have been harassed and threatened on social media.
“It was not donated . It was not a reflection of our opinions -our political views” said Co-owner Madison Davis.
“It was literally just a business transaction and I think that’s where the misunderstanding comes in. We’ve never discriminated on what jobs we take. If someone comes to us with money wanting to buy food, we’re not going to turn away money because we are a business and that’s what we’re trying to run.”
Shuford’s says they cancelled the order because of threats to burn down their business.

Criminal terrorist threats. These leftists need to be put down like dogs.
They were just teasing. Go ahead with your plans.
What if it was a cake?
here’s the original article stolen lock, stock and barrel by GP:

Violence works.
Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
Sounds like the FBI should investigate this is racketeering. Squash them they are criminal.
Shoot, shovel, tractor food.
Well the government sure as hell isn't doing anything about it. We are in a state of anarchy.
Until now. Never say never.
Shame. They seem like decent, gentile people. The mob outside Lott’s house will still burn them down.
Terrorism.
A single report of arresting/prosecuting only one of these thugs every two weeks doesn’t cut it.
What's your point ? Yes it was word for word from the local TV station. Are you shading GP because of it...that's what news aggregators do. Your post added nothing. I, for one, appreciate knowing about BS like this.
I meant genteel. They may be gentiles too but that’s beside the point.
Before y’all think the business owner is a PU55Y, remember that you are not him, and have limited info on the whole story.
Yeah. Will they, though?
Most of us are peaceful and conflict averse, and are just waiting for this insanity to end. We won't have that luxury if our own government refuses to do its job.
"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Where in Tenn. was this, Memphis area?
Remember, this is happening in TN which is not a Blue State.
We are surrounded.
I would take that threat as an OPPORTUNITY! Yeah, you come down here any night and give that a try. I’ll be wearing my pink polo shirt, holding a Noisy Cricket, just to give you half a chance. Just be careful of my best buddy sniper who owns the night.
