I miss the days when Texaco was under fire for not hiring black people.

“Up ahead there’s Texaco, they don’t hire people who annoy you there,” was a catchy 90s jingle.

This should teach all business NOT to operate in “diverse” areas.

Why would anybody have a problem with this? At least put the store owner on notice. Good for them.

You’re right. Just like tearing down all those statues helped reduce crime.

Also, is he suggesting that black people aren’t smart enough to find another gas station? “Oh, the Texaco is shut down, I guess we’ll just go home and play Monopoly.”

I think it would be fair if they purchased the station then shut it down. Otherwise it unfairly hurts the owner. Screw that.

So the store owner gets to be the strawman? What a poindextery loser arse hot take

Just because they're blaming someone, doesn't mean they're blaming the right someone. Youre gettin flamed pretty hard, hopefully you take it to heart.

This is as ignorant of the ban guns, statue, road names, etc folk. Anything but excepting blame.

The Stokes protest about “raw boo boo” coming from the sewer pipes is a classic.

Guns don't kill people.

Gas Stations kill people.
