Sheetz Set Upon by Feds for Not Hiring Criminals

Running a business? Prefer not to hire criminals? Hire them anyway — or our Democrat rulers will smash your kneecaps with the racism club:

Sheetz Inc., which operates more than 700 stores in six states, discriminated against Black, Native American and multiracial job seekers by automatically weeding out applicants whom the company deemed to have failed a criminal background check, according to U.S. officials.

That’s the beauty of the “disparate impact” ploy. Since blacks are more likely to commit crimes, you have to hire criminals or you are discriminating against blacks.

Criminals may be the only identity group more likely than blacks to support Democrats. That’s why they get special treatment at everyone else’s expense.

The feds aren’t going to haul you into court for hiring someone who isn’t a criminal. So play it safe and hire the guy with a record. When the crook cleans out the till, chalk it up to the price of doing business in a country ruled by liberals.

The Feds explicitly do not allege that Sheetz has committed racial animus. They just cite the disparate impact.

They are going to make this hurt:

The EEOC, an independent agency that enforces federal laws against workplace discrimination, is seeking to force Sheetz to offer jobs to applicants who were unlawfully denied employment and to provide back pay, retroactive seniority and other benefits.

Some coincidence:

The lawsuit was filed in federal court on Wednesday, the day Biden stopped at a Sheetz market on a western Pennsylvania campaign swing, buying snacks, posing for photos and chatting up patrons and employees.

The absurdly hypermanaged Biden evoked facepalms at this event, which invited comparisons to Trump that did not favor Creepy Joe:

[T]he overall response to his presence seemed incredibly tame for a sitting president only a few months away from his re-election bid.

Whereas,

On Tuesday evening, Trump had visited a bodega in Harlem, New York, where he was met with cheering, energetic crowds.

It makes quite the contrast:

At least he managed to refrain from sniffing the little girls. The sunglasses indoors are a reminder that he needs to be heavily drugged even to shuffle across a floor; behind them, his eyes probably look like spinning pinwheels.

Then there is Trump, behind enemy lines in deep blue New York:

This underscores that Trump represents the American people, whereas Biden personifies the hostile liberal establishment.

Maybe the bodega will be accused of civil rights violations by the federal bureaucracy too. A worker there has already been prosecuted persecuted by Soros stooge Alvin Bragg for defending himself from a criminal.

Media Floats Dexter Reed as 2024’s George Floyd

There is a big election coming, and for obvious reasons, the Democrat establishment is vulnerable. Time to intimidate the public with massive race riots like in 2020.

Did the police kill Dexter Reed just to be racist? Actually no; the scumbag had opened fire on them, wounding an officer. But that’s not how the mainstream media presents it. Via Breitbart:

• The Incredible Shrinking Washington Post: Police fire 96 shots in 41 seconds, killing [b]lack man during traffic stop

USA Today: Seat belt violation ends with [b]lack man dead on Chicago street after cops fired nearly 100 bullets

CBS News: Why did traffic stop, shootout with Chicago Police killed Dexter Reed escalate so rapidly?

The Independent: Black man’s family demand answers after bodycam shows Chicago police firing 96 times in deadly shooting

Associated Press: Deadly Chicago traffic stop where police fired 96 shots raises serious questions about use of force

Chicago Sun-Times: Killing of Dexter Reed raises questions about Chicago police reform. ‘The message is, go in guns blazing.’

The liberals in charge had good reason to bestow large monetary rewards upon Black Lives Matter rioters in places like Philadelphia, New York, and Denver. They wanted to be sure their weaponized mob could be relied on when needed.

Even if hyping Dexter Reed gets insufficient traction because it is too obvious that the police did nothing wrong, it will at least help prime the pump for the inevitable next incident.

Tennessee State Senator Calls for Race Riots

Meanwhile, as tourists from Iowa sit in prison for committing “insurrection” by wandering into the People’s House on January 6, Tennessee State Senator Charlane Oliver remains at large:

Oliver (D) recently expressed outrage over the passage of a bill that would prevent local officials from introducing policies or ordinances that limit the ability of police to properly fulfill their duties.

Oliver is not only a lawmaker but cofounder of the identitarian activist group Equity Alliance. When you see the word “equity,” take cover; you are under attack.

“Yeah, we gonna fight,” said Oliver. “Dr. King said that the riots are the language of the unheard. You ain’t see nothing yet. If you keep silencing us like this, what you think our district’s gonna do?”

Incitement to riot would be a crime, except that laws don’t apply to left-wing black women, because they are intersectionally oppressed.

The lunatic moonbattery comes atop earlier lunatic moonbattery:

Facing pressure from activists over the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols by five black police officers last year, Memphis City Council passed an ordinance in April 2023 preventing police from conducting pretextual traffic stops.

You can see how Memphis came to be the USA’s most dangerous city. The Democrat-dominated diverse dung heap is safer than 0% of other American cities.

State Sen. Brent Taylor filed a bill in January that would effectively override the Memphis ordinance by barring “a local governmental entity or official from adopting or enacting a resolution, ordinance, or policy that prohibits or limits the ability of a law enforcement agency to conduct traffic stops based on observation of or reasonable suspicion that the operator or a passenger in a vehicle has violated a local ordinance of state or federal law.”

Taylor’s bill passed along party lines. Democrats reacted with hebephrenic rage.

Presenting Charlane Oliver:

Welcome to Haiti.

Advil Introduces Pain Equity

The Bud Light implosion taught them nothing. Corporations continue to double down on ramming moonbattery down the public’s throat, alienating at least half their customer base by prioritizing leftist posturing over selling their products. Now Advil tells us to buy their ibuprofen because pain is racist:

Pain equity. Liberalism is beyond parody. It will stop being funny when Democrats force Caucasians to keep ground glass in their shoes so as to feel as much pain as blacks are egged on to proclaim they experience.

Blacks showing some self-respect instead of whining on command would put a stop to this.

Racist Decries Lack of Blacks in Depiction of Feudal Japan

These days, everything that ever happened anywhere gets shoehorned into Afrocentric ideology:

The 2024 version of Shogun begins in 1600, as did the 1980 version, both based on the novel by James Clavell. …

1980 Shogun, starring Richard Chamberlain, also reinforced the white savior trope, far too common in film, television, and history books.

The 2024 version focuses far more on the Japanese perspective. The white characters appearing in the first episodes representing Portugal, Spain, England, and Holland could hardly be deemed heroic.

So far so woke. A part of Americana “hailed by many as a cinematic wonder” has been reconstructed so as to comply with liberal establishment ideology by denigrating Caucasians. But wait:

I ask the question now that I naively didn’t ask in 1980. Where are the Black people?

Answer: somewhere other than feudal Japan. However, author William Spivey asserts with a straight face that a shogun who lived in the 8th century was black.

Care to guess Spivey’s racial background?

Shopping With the Entitled

If you are in a store and an oppressed person decides she is “being discriminated,” head for the exit or you might get stomped:

The victim of systemic racism has been apprehended:

Police told Blaze News they arrested Zarria Nichols, 26, on Friday in connection with the Feb. 16 attacks caught on surveillance video. Nichols was criminally cited for two counts of third-degree assault, two counts of criminal mischief, and one count of child abuse/neglect, police said, adding that all the charges are misdemeanors.

Too bad for Nichols this didn’t happen in New York. She would have walked free like Amira Hunter. Oh wait:

While Nichols was criminally cited, police said she wasn’t booked into jail.

Tinseltown’s Terrence Howard Too Oppressed to Pay Taxes

Rich and famous black guy Terrence Howard says it is “immoral” for people like him to have to pay taxes. Maybe the moonbattery that prevails in Hollyweird has rendered him insane. Or maybe he just doesn’t like paying taxes. But sometimes even the oppressed have to cough them up anyway:

A federal judge in Philadelphia has ordered Academy Award-nominated actor Terrence Howard to pay nearly $1 million in back taxes, interest, and penalties after he allegedly threatened a Justice Department lawyer and maintained that it was “immoral for the United States government to charge taxes to the descendants of slaves.”

The Tinseltown One Percenter attempted to crybully a tax collector by voicemail:

“Four hundred years of forced labor and never receiving any compensation for it,” the actor said in the message. “Now you have the gall to try and prosecute and charge taxes to the descendants of a broken people that you are responsible for causing the breakage.”

Al Sharpton feels his pain. But last I knew, that zillionaire professional racist doesn’t have to pay taxes. He’s even more oppressed than Howard — by which I mean he has more powerful friends.

Howard’s demands go beyond not having to pay his fair share:

“In truth, the entire United States should, by default, become the property of the descendants of slaves,” he said.

Great idea for next time they update the Democratic Party platform.
