And here is Gravy...an unemployed man who lives with his step mother and a man who refuses to work for a salary or at a job. Here is is demanding another man be terminated over a heated (dumb) comment about Halloween Candy...
Walk-On's Bistreaux & Bar should revoke the franchise license for Brandon Hargrave.
Brandon owns the Covington Walk On’s and posted a video of black children taking more than one piece of candy on Halloween and posted a video with the caption below.
He’s a bigot, and clearly believes that a black child taking extra candy on Halloween means he or she will die or go to jail?
Have no little white children in America taken candy? Have white children done worse and still been functioning members of society?
Walk On’s needs to revoke his franchise license because someone with this mentality can’t apologize their bigotry away. This man clearly has bias and that will translate to hiring practices and customer treatment.
Walk On’s should remove him from their brand. He may have paid for the license but if you allow racist to represent your brand, what does that say about you as a organization?

Somebody needs to keep track of these kids and let us know if they end up in jail in 10 years. This guy may be proven right and he can sue Walkons for millions.

Welp I assume Hargrave just lawyers up if he hadn’t already.

Except that it wasn’t racist. He was talking about a culture, not a race.

White kids steal candy too.

Contract language accounts for circumstances such as Hargrave shooting out rascist posts on Facebook or other public internet sites.
It was his personal Facebook account
Does that mean he has to sign away his 1st Amendment rights?
What part was racist?

This thread delivers.

I’ve always heard this forum is a safe harbor for racists. Looking at the percentage of people here who are defending this guy and saying he is not racist, I guess it’s true.

"Turn the volume up," Hargrave wrote on Facebook in one version of the post. "You can even hear these little hoodf***** reading the sign that says 'please take one so everyone gets one' aloud while picking their heads up like thieves on the lookout and taking it all.
