Black Lives Matter (BLM) protesters issued “social justice” and “black liberation” demands regarding “diversity” to a restaurant owner in Louisville, KY, including a directive for “donations” to organizations run by non-whites.

Listed demands from a BLM affiliate in Louisville include racial quotas for staff and ownership of business suppliers, donations to organizations run by non-whites, and adjustment to dress codes. The posters used the acronym “BIPOC” (“black or indigenous persons of color”) as a euphemism for non-white persons:

23% of Staff is BIPOC in Front of House

23% of inventory is from BIPOC retailer(s)

Regular donations to BIPOC organization

Dress code policy does not discriminate against BIPOC patrons of employees.

Additional demands issued via the letter included the option to give 1.5 percent of revenues to a local “black nonprofit or organization” in lieu of purchasing a minimum of 23 percent of the business’s inventory from “black retailers,” mandated “diversity and inclusion training” for all employees, and displaying of left-wing messaging to support “reparations.”

The posters include a stated commitment to be publicly visible as a public service announcement pending future “inspections” of restaurants and other businesses.

Three varieties of posters with the message, “YOU CAN’T STOP THE REVOLUTION,” were directed at restaurants in Louisville’s NuLu neighborhood with the grades A, C, and F according to a “NuLu Social Justice Health and Wellness Code.”

Posters with the C-grade declare, “A facility that fails two (2) consecutive regular inspections will be under administrative review.” Those with an F-grade include the following message, “[This] facility has failed to meet minimum requirements of the Nulu Social Justice Health and Wellness Code inspection. This includes [a] failure to create a safe space for black inclusion.”

Imagine that. Something called “Black Lives Matter” would turn to organized crime.

RICO is right.
It’s a shakedown group of violent persons. Some might just outright say terrorist group.

Now, if we just follow the money to where it goes from BLM to a source, we can arrest all of those involved profiting from the illegal activities........

Now we know why the protests turned into riots, burning and looting. Mafia. Shakedown. Blackmail. Whatever happened to the FBI? Oh, never mind, getting rid of Trump is more important.

Well...that takes Louisville off the list of places to visit. These places will either have to give in or be burned to the ground. Either way, walking into a city that’s wall papered with BLM posters is a sure way for a white visitor to be mugged or worse.

Why aren’t these people arrested for racketeering under the RICCA laws? Al Capone would be so proud of them.

The winners write the history books. These guys haven’t won anything. The nation MUST turn back to God and repent of the way we’ve been living. If not, the prophecies of the Old Testament are going to come to pass against us.
