Black lives matter except for when they’re killed by other blacks which is 98% of the time.

Never could figure out how Boil and Roux stayed open. Ain't no way they are making enough money to make it worth it. Adrian Hammond is co-owner of B&R.

quote:

The 9News Investigators found a release from Louisiana’s U.S. Attorney’s Office showing where the concert promoter, Adrian Hammond, was convicted in 2018 and ordered to serve a year and a day in prison for bank fraud and other charges. In 2016, federal investigators determined while he owed more than $100,000 in unpaid taxes, he cut a $220,000 deal with Southern University to provide entertainment for a concert. When the IRS contacted the school to collect part of the money Hammond was set to earn, investigators say he ended the contract with Southern and then got a friend to pick up the same contract with the university and pay him a cut from the earnings. Investigators say the money was then put into an account for his restaurant, Boil & Roux.

It sound like his business sucks, which makes this a a brilliant move. He probably already has the go fund me set up for a poor black business owner who lost his business because he took a stand against oppression.

i came into town one weekend, and was craving the hometown seafood, so i gave it a try. Service was ok. I was the only white person there. Near the end of the meal the manager was begging me to come back lol

I agree with Boil & Roux that BLM. As a fellow black man, what do you want to to help the community?

I’m trying to remember what it was before Boil & Roux

Charlie & Jimmy used to do their show from there, I always thought about giving them a 2nd chance but couldn’t bring myself to go

There's so many legitimate criticisms that you could be going after right now, but when you parrot things like this as anything other a troll job it just invalidates your POV because it's so stupid.

It's like getting upset that only breast cancer matters to people that are raising money to fight breast cancer.

Of course all lives matter. Bring up the times when they indicate that white lives or opinions don't matter and you'd be coming from a much more rational stance.

It was called Portico's. I think there is another one in Ruston or Monroe.

I've eaten there twice and both experiences were terrible. The food was great, the service was terrible.


It used to be better. We used to go there for lunch about once a week. It’s really gone to shite in the past 2-3 years.
