(RightWingAmericans.com)- Last week, another death of an African American man caused Antifa and Black Lives Matter activist to take to the streets and burn down buildings. The shooting of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks occurred in the parking lot of a Wendy’s burger restaurant after he resisted arrest, stole a taser, and tried to shoot a police officer with it.

Footage clearly showed Brooks resisting arrest and stealing the weapon, and could be seen turning around and trying to shoot police officers. Despite this, Antifa and BLM activists quickly took to the streets and labeled it a racist murder. They then burned down the Wendy’s restaurant where it occurred…despite Wendy’s having nothing to do with the incident.
Well that’s just awkward. Rayshard Brooks turned around to fire a weapon at two officers in pursuit. pic.twitter.com/Fx1Eeax4Sy

Incredibly, protesters didn’t seem to care one bit that Wendy’s actually already capitulated to the Black Lives Matter movement right at the beginning of June. Following the death of George Floyd, Wendy’s published promises on their Twitter account to put their money where their mouth is.
“Our voice would be nothing without Black culture,” they said in on tweet.
Our voice would be nothing without Black culture. Right now, a lot of people are hurting because of blatant racism against Black people. Their voices need to be heard. Period. #BlackLivesMatter

“We’re about putting our money where our mouth is,” another tweet read. “So here’s our money and here’s our mouth. We are committed to donating $500k to support social justice, the youth and education in the Black community starting with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund and we’ll have receipts.”
We’re about putting our money where our mouth is. So here’s our money and here’s our mouth. We are committed to donating $500k to support social justice, the youth and education in the Black community starting with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund and we’ll have receipts.

It’s almost as if….they don’t care! Insatiable ideologues have burned down and vandalized stores from chains that have donated similar sums of cash. They even burned down Amazon warehouses even after Jeff Bezos, Amazon CEO, committed huge sums of money to help their cause.
Will big companies finally start realizing that capitulation doesn’t work?
