For MLK Day, Spice Company Says All Republicans 'Racist,' Want to 'Shoot a Black Person'

n Martin Luther King (MLK) Jr. Day, a spice company sent out an email calling all Republicans "racist" who largely hope to one day "shoot a Black person."

Penzeys Spices, a Wisconsin-based company, issued an email promotion Jan. 14 dubbing the MLK holiday weekend, "Republicans are racist weekend."

The promotion went on to accuse Republicans of opposing BLM's success "in moving America towards greater equality for Black people, in many ways the first real success since the time of Dr. King," during the racial justice protests that erupted nationwide during summer 2020.

"Republicans did all they could to derail that success by trying to drown out BLM's message with shouts of all lives matter, and blue lives matter, and lying about the leaders of BLM being Marxists and Communists," the company's promotion said.

The promotional message then accused Republicans of labeling BLM activists as "terrorists inciting violence throughout the country" and then "[racing] out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person."

"What a bunch of racists," the message continued. It then accused Republicans of gerrymandering, making it harder for people of color to vote and of supporting former President Donald Trump, a man who characterized Mexican immigrants as "rapists" and "murderers."

Does he have a lick of testosterone? He has a cherub round, pink face and he’s very soft and feminine looking. No spice there.

Imagine being this mentally ill and then running a company into the ground because of it.

If the New York Times or Washington Post could find ONE PERSON OF COLOR who was denied the vote they would run the story on the front page above the fold - for a month.

Instead they are too busy making sure conservatives votes are lost and cancelled out.

“‘Republicans did all they could to derail that success by trying to drown out BLM’s message with shouts of all lives matter, and blue lives matter, and lying about the leaders of BLM being Marxists and Communists,’ the company’s promotion said.“

Burn Loot Murder is a Commie, Fascist, sexual-perversion-promoting, leftist organization. It’s not hidden. It’s right on the official website what they stand for. And it has very little to do with black lives.

They scream that saying all lives matter is an attempt to drown the blm message, but what about its promotion of LGBT?

Violence, arson, vandalism, and lawlessness are not progress or “success” for blacks or anyone else.

Most Americans are not falling for this nonsense.

I was given a gift of a four-pack of Penzey’s spices ... they went right into the trash.

I would have sent them back to the company but it wasn’t worth the hassle
