What city and state is this?
Here is the body camera footage of this outrageous wrongful arrest of a Black couple @WaffleHouse. They were arrested for theft & trespassing. They never even received the food. They were overcharged a $1.50 for an orange juice and asked to call customer service.pic.twitter.com/c7a74NhKoH
Body camera of Black couple wrongly arrested for theft at Waffle House
This couple never even received their food. Their money is on the counter as this arrest is going down. But police arrested them with theft & trespassing - only to later drop the charges

Hey
@FortWaltonBchPD I want these officers names and photos released to the public. I also want these officers to lose their jobs, and go through starbucks’ racial bias training. What are you planning to do about your racist officers????? -
We need to know who is the employee that felt so scared for his life that he/she just had to called the cops. Waste tax payer money on something that could have easily been handled inside. I didn't realize it's a cops job to resolve bill issues.
-
Absolutely! The cops never should have been called. That’s on
#WaffleHouse and their racist policies. However, the cops were called, and if they were any good at their jobs, they would have deescalated instead of escalating. - 2 more replies

True. So at what point does choosing to live in America become a choice to accept those things? Most other countries don't treat black people this way, don't have these everyday risks, but most African Americans choose to stay where this happens to them. What keeps you there?

Non it won't, but moving keeps more of us alive to do it, lessens anxiety and frees minds for strategy. Do you have an answer to either question though?
-
Why should we have to move because other people are ignorant??!! I can live here and not accept this bs. We need to exert our power by avoiding this establishment and making them listen by affecting the one thing they care most about- their $$$$$$.
-
It's not that you should, I asked, when does enduring the BS become a choice? 1950? 1990? 2020? cos it aint changing. Also, what are the things that make you accept the risks to life and liberty? I'm not telling you to move, I'm asking you the above questions.

And go where?
