Popeyes store under criminal investigation after posting sign saying, ‘Will reserve the right to refuse service to white people’

Authorities have launched a criminal investigation into a sign that was reportedly posted at a Popeyes restaurant in Lake Saint Louis, Missouri, announcing that the fast-food restaurant reserved the "right to refuse service to white people."

What are the details?
A photo of the sign — which was reportedly affixed to an area in the restaurant's drive-thru — was widely circulated across social media platforms Wednesday, and said, "Effective 6-1-21 This restaurant is under new management and will reserve the right to refuse service to white people. We apologize for any inconvenience. Signed, General Manager, Mason."

The restaurant was forced to close on Wednesday over the outcry.

According to KTVI-TV, Lake Saint Louis police said that they believe someone may have erected the sign "unbeknownst to the business" and added that the sign could be related to an act of vandalism that took place at the store earlier in May. The vandalism, according to Lt. Pat Doering of the Lake Saint Louis Police Department, said that the vandalism included shattered glass and obscene messages painted on the restaurant's drive-thru menu.

Thank you race baiters and CRT pushers. We used to have a pretty well functioning country until about 15 years ago. Thank you Obama, Oprah, Kamala, Biden, Mad Max, Al Sharpton, etc, for causing so much division and hate.........

The police couldn't find their butts in a paper bag.

Obviously, Popeye's is not the offender in this case. However, I'd be a pretty big hypocrite if I took offense at a private business deciding who they choose to, or not to do, business with on any given day, for whatever given reason, or no reason at all.

ITST, choosing not to serve blondes in my restaurant ought to be my purview, as well. Or, not serving anyone except blondes.

And then, allow supply and demand to be the arbiter.
