BLM Protest Planned at New York Restaurant Where Vaccination Proof Was Demanded to Support 3 Black Women Arrested after Melee with a Hostess

A Black Lives Matter chapter confirmed it will hold a protest at a New York City restaurant to support three black women who were arrested after a melee with a hostess who allegedly demanded they present proof of COVID-19 vaccination.

Black Lives Matter Greater New York confirmed to Fox News and other news outlets that they will side with the three women—identified by officials as Kaeita Nkeenge Rankin, 44, Tyonnie Keshay Rankin, 21, and Sally Rechelle Lewis—arguing that the city’s vaccine passport is being weaponized against black people.

“I believe that this New York City vaccine passport will be used to keep black people out of spaces, and if we don’t stop it now then the police will use it as an excuse to harass and arrest our people,” a Black Lives Matter Greater New York spokesman told Fox News in a statement.

Video footage posted online last week showed a hostess with Carmine’s on Manhattan’s Upper West Side in a scuffle with several people. Lawyers for Carmine’s on Saturday told Fox that the women did, in fact, show proof of vaccination and were seated inside when the fracas started, and the altercation started when two men from the women’s party were not able to provide proof.

But Justin Moore, a lawyer for one of the women, claimed they were racially profiled and demanded the hostess be fired.

“This hostess clearly has some anger management issues and unfortunately her aggression and her violence led to something that three black women are being punished for,” Moore, of Texas, told the New York Daily News. He furthermore claimed that the hostess used a racial slur against the three and attacked one of the Rankins, sparking the melee.

Please don’t make us agree with BLM? Maybe a broken clock is correct twice a day.

You are absolutely correct and the democrats want you out of their place of business. Now, take your protests to D.C. and demand that the media agree.

They are after all the party of Jim crow and the kkk.

Should be interesting when the unvaccinated LeBron James shows up at a resteraunt with his posse and wants to sit and eat.

The Hostess should have a press conference saying:
“If those black customers were not acting like wild animals, then they would not have been treated that way. I love all people if they respect me as another adult!”

Bill DeFascisto thought he was going to get away with this - but he didn't study up on who exactly the New York unvaxxed were...

Communists are never sincere about their stated positions.

Their agenda is always manipulation.

This is one of the big reasons communism is known as low IQ.

[Truthoverpower]

For once I totally completely absolutely agree with BLM!!

This is a BIG DEAL.

DEMKNRATS KKK RATS AND TGEIR EVIL VAXX MANDATES

Going down.

[Kickass Conservative]

Shouldn’t they be protesting at DeBlasio’s House? You know, the guy with the Black Wife.

Blaming the Hostess (the actual victim) is laughable but they will get away with it.

The Hostess should sue their Lawyer for Slander.

due to Victorian Premier, Dan Andrews, shutting down construction, thousands were able to attend today’s protest. peaceful for the first 3 hours, then MSM claims it got violent in the CBD:

21 Sept: news.com.au: Melbourne ‘freedom’ protest: Chaos erupts in CBD streets over construction sector shutdown
Violent scenes are unfolding in Melbourne for the second consecutive day as thousands of enraged protesters march through the city’s CBD.
by Sam Clench & Rohan Smith
Since the protest kicked off at 10am on Elizabeth Street near the headquarters of the Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) - the scene of yesterday’s violent clashes - the crowd has swelled to thousands and has been met by a heavy police presence...

As the situation grew more chaotic around 1pm, footage emerged of protesters pelting police with projectiles, including glass bottles and flares. Some members of the crowd approached with their hands up, chanting: “You serve us.”
Riot police responded by deploying tear gas and firing rubber bullets...

One post on the app outlined a list of “demands”, including the immediate removal of emergency state powers, an immediate end to lockdown, an end to mask and vaccine mandates, the resignation of Premier Daniel Andrews and chief health officer Brett Sutton, a royal commission into the government’s pandemic response, charges against police for “assaulting peaceful protesters”, a resumption of all construction sites and “mass distribution of ivermectin, vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc”...

Tensions were further inflamed by the discovery of a man’s body at a worksite in West Melbourne, hours after the Victorian government announced a two-week shutdown of the construction sector.

The Herald Sun reports the man’s body was found at a site on Spencer Street at about 7am this morning. It is understood he took his own life...

One message circulating among construction workers in the wake of the news read: “Breaks my f***in heart. His blood is on Dan Andrews’ hands. May you rest in peace and your mind be at ease brother. Today we protest in your name and in your honour.”...

The video of the ‘attack’ on the hostess is here.
3 women arrived and were vaxxed. 3 unvaxed men arrived shortly after to be seated with them and were not allowed in. The women followed the hostess outside and attacked her.

It may sound good but BLM should be protesting the government and not a business that is following government mandates.

[MAGAthon]

have read some comments on the violence at the Melbourne protest, suggesting the police - who were out in numbers and on horse-back at the Parliament building - ordered the protesters to disperse, or else, and that led to some skirmishes. thousands are still on the streets of Melbourne.

“A Black Lives Matter chapter confirmed it will hold a protest at a New York City restaurant to support three black women who were arrested after a melee with a hostess who allegedly demanded they present proof of COVID-19 vaccination.”

This could be the end of the Biden Vax mandate. Is he really going to take on BLM, his most rabid base?

Should be fun to watch.

[bgill]

Instead, the protest should be against pants on the ground.
