They'll probably have to raise their prices to absorb that monthly extortion fee.

Funny how times changed, historically speaking the last place you would want to confront as a mob was an Italian joint with a bunch of Guido's with their backs to the restaraunt walls....!

Joe Pesci owns (or used to own) a very nice Italian restaurant just outside Paterson, NJ. I had dinner there several times while traveling on business between 1997 and 2001. It's an old converted two-story home, and some of the clientele that dines there is right out of Goodfellas. One time, a bunch of them came in and Pesci asked all the other diners to leave so his buddies could discuss their business without being disturbed. So I wonder if BLM is going to try and shake him down too. I'd love to see the outcome of that confrontation.

It is funny how in the gangster movies, the gangsters beat up the bikers & rednecks.
In "Sons of Anarchy", the bikers beat up the rednecks and gangsters
In "Yellowstone", the redneck cowboys beat up the gangsters and bikers.
I guess it all comes down to who has home field advantage.

Can we assume GOODYEAR is part of the "WOKE MOB".....? GOODYEAR is about to have a very BADYEAR...!! “Some people may wish to express their views on social justice or inequity or equity issues such as black lives matter or LGBTQ pride on their face coverings, shirts or wristbands. That will be deemed approved because it applies with a zero-tolerance stance,” the speaker said during the meeting. “However if any associate wears all, blue, white lives matter shirts or face coverings, that will be not appropriate.”

Appears the source is single party or person in a Kansas plant. Although CORPORATE is saying it is not part of their TOLERANCE program, they are still standing behind BLM is OK, the rest not. Read Frogs link, its Snopes and I think they are not saying its true or false here. Seems for now BLM is widely accepted as not POLITICAL or a POLITICAL GROUP. Really?

I wonder if the food was good there. Nice to see management out there protecting the diners.

I don’t even have the words to describe how angry looking at that makes me feel! It’s disgusting that people are such cowards!
