So apparently a real estate investor(who is now calling himself Young Malcom) and his party were denied service because they do no seat parties of six or more but he is claiming it was because he is black. This is the Buckhead/Atlanta location by the way. They are trying to start a nationwide effort to shutdown all Houstons restaurants.

I don't live anywhere near a Houstons, but I'll support them all damn day. Isn't TI due for some time in prison by now?

Absolutely. There is no way any waiter or waitress in Baton Rouge who works at Chimes East or TJ Ribs makes any money. Those places have been taken over.

Let's pretend for a minute this was actual racism. Is shutting down every houstons location a rational response?

Dude, these are the same people that think NFL players have a 1A right to protest at work and have zero repercussions. Of course they think this is completely rational.
