re: Burger King Discrimination Incident!
I went to Burger King store 5218 today and bought lunch for a homeless person who is down on his luck, he is also a little off mentally... the manager Eric, and one of the other people who work came out and told me that the homeless person that I brought in as my guest was not allowed in the store... I asked why? they told me that he has spread [***] all over the bathroom walls when he came in one day.
I asked if they had been in the bathroom before he had gone in and then after and they told me NO! I then asked how they knew that it was him not some drug addict or punk that had spread the [***] all over the wall. I have personally been in those bathrooms and they are crappy at best, I have found needles on the floor and they have smelled like some drug that was heated up and used, but I know this man was not on drugs, I have lived with and worked with my wife in the substance abuse/mental health field for over 17 years.
So I asked if they had personally seen this man spread [***] on the walls of the bathroom, they told me NO! So I had also informed the manager ERIC and his co-workers that I spent 8 years in the U.S. MARINE CORPS protecting their rights and the rights of all people in this Country and am now an above knee amputee, and was helping a person who is down on their luck by buying him lunch, he was not on drugs, nor drinking, and I told them I would personally take responsibility for him on this day.(I checked him out before bringing him into the store) all they could tell me is that they THINK he was the one who spread “shit” on the walls, but could not be sure, and they could refuse service to anyone they wanted... so I the other 6 people who were eating, I could tell don’t have an extreme amount of money, got up, THANKED ME FOR MY SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY, AND ALSO THANKED ME FOR HELPING A PERSON IN NEED! They then threw their meals away and said they wouldn’t give Burger King any more of their money since they treated a disabled VET, helping a person in need the way that they did. I applaud these people. I asked these young spoiled people if they had ever been on the street before, I have!
They said NO! I informed them that Karma is a strong thing and to be careful of how they treat strangers.... “I TREAT EVERY PERSON THE WAY THAT I WOULD WANT TO BE TREATED IF I WERE THEM”. this is something to live by. They told me that the OWNER OF THE BURGER KING told them not to let this homeless man in the store anymore.
The other patrons were correct in leaving the establishment on Evens and Broadway (Burger King) they didn’t like the answers the yuppie manager and spoiled girls working with him acted. I didn’t appreciate that they took my $8.31 and then asked me to leave..... what a crock of [***]! and Burger King will pay for this, by me putting this letter to all people that I know, because the people I know realize I wouldn’t lie, and don’t make things bigger than they are!
