Burger King hangs up sign - SJW's complain (pic of sign included)

Pretty funny sign actually.
But that doesn't fly with some folks...
quote:
A Burger King in Massachusetts has removed a sign about overdosing after receiving backlash for displaying it.
This particular location of the fast food chain sees a large amount of drug activity. “It’s common knowledge, people do use those restrooms to do that sort of thing. There have been overdoses in there,” a customer told WBZ.
According to a Mass Live report from October 2017, this Burger King near Kelley Square has had nine overdoses between September 2016 and September 2017.
But that doesn't fly with some folks...
quote:
Some believe the sign Burger King had hanging is a result of the stigma around drug use and addiction. “We are in the midst of an opioid crisis and signs like this don’t help,” AdCare’s Georganna Koppermann told WBZ. AdCare is a substance abuse treatment center that offers inpatient and outpatient services to those struggling with addiction.
Burger King told the news organization it is investigating the situation. “The actions of this Team Member were an isolated incident and do not reflect the Burger King brand values or the values of the Franchisee, who independently owns and operates this restaurant,” a Burger King spokesperson said. “The Franchisee is investigating this incident thoroughly and will take the actions they believe are appropriate.”.

Looks fake AF, but to be fair, that is probably where most dopehead libs eat so not a smart decision to offend your customer base.

You wonder why Trump wants the death penalty for opioid dealers.

That’s more overdoses than I allow at my place

This board has a huge blind spot for the fact that a shite ton of Trump voting, gun-owning people are on the public dole
which is weird considering how often we make fun of trashy people that clearly aren't Hillary voters

I mean, Trump is in NH at this very second rolling out Opiods: The Crisis Next Door. He went on a tangent of how he's rolling out a national ad campaign to "scare" kids before they start. He's SJW'ing the shite out of this very issue

There has to be some middle ground between
"don't stigmatize deadly drug abuse"
and
"let's kill all the drug dealers"
"don't stigmatize deadly drug abuse"
and
"let's kill all the drug dealers"

Well, they're the most likely to worry about delicate feelings, so it's not a terrible assumption.

Massachusetts? Who would have guessed.
Posted on 3/19/18 at 2:06 pm to Pettifogger
nah..
this seems like a good solution

No question. You have to catch this replay. Just after he puffed his chest about how one dealer can kill thousands of people and if caught, only gets 30 days in jail
Now, just after this, he brings up the parents of the "dindu, great beautiful kid, great kid wonderful boy" who was white. And dead. They tell his story... great kid who got hooked when he found opiods in THEIR cabinet and when all his fix options became less and less, he found fentanyl. Killed himself. But through all the bad choices, parental intervention and tears - kill the dealer is what would have worked. Let them and the kid off the hook for not GETTING HIM TREATMENT
He's spent more time talking about the wall than talking about this issue as a health crisis - a treatment problem.
But he's SJW'ing... I'll give him that.

Damnit. I should have thought of that for the OP. Gotta up my game now.
