        How is it Waffle House’s fault if a cop beats someone on their property?

        Waffle House needs to make a statement but honestly what does the owner of Waffle House have to do with how this individual cop chose to behave. We been missing the point

        As I understand it, the Police were called BECAUSE there was a Disturbance. NORMALLY Police are Not-Called unless something Fairly-Serious is going on. He seems like a nice young man, BUT, the Police have Absolutely NO-IDEA-AT-ALL who they may be confronting When They Are Called.

        Why boycott Waffle House?!? If an incident inside Waffle House was beginning to escalate they have no choice but to call the police. This cop MUST be held accountable. This is DIFFERENT from the Starbucks incident! @CNN @FoxNews @WaffleHouse @BerniceKing @newday @NBCNews @ABC

        @VictorBlackwell I'm not sure why we would boycott Waffle House. This cop MUST be held accountable. But the cops were called when an incident involving that young man began to escalate. What else were the employees to do?!? This young man took responsibility.

        Why was the cop there? Didn’t Waffle House call them in?

        Because he was arguing with employees and they eventually called police

        Before attacking OR defending the Waffle House then, I’d probs want to get to the bottom of the perceived arguement.

        There is a video of the incident inside that this News outlet conveniently left out.

        Would’ve wanted to a one savage confrontation with the waffle house employees for it to lead to the clear police brutality that followed.

        Well I’m just saying if I was one of those employees and someone was screaming and threatening me I would call the police regardless of color.

        Yeah fair enough. No verbal disagreement should result in that police reaction though. The kid wasn’t going to hurt anyone physically.

        If someone is acting that aggressive you can’t be totally sure they won’t hop over the counter. Also he is 22 years old and should damn well know better.

        Why have "they" decided to target Waffle House? What could be the strategy in taking down an "American Tradition"? Hey @CBS ,"We the People" know that you and your "communist conspirators" are working to rip America in to peices. Do you think MSM will be safe, from "them"?🤔😁

        If this isn’t racism pure and simple I don’t know what is. No reason to treat someone like that. Unless you think they are “sub-human”. There are other ways to deal with your charges more professionally.
