Wyckoff Comfort terminates employee accused of driving through protest
BLM video ^ | KCCI Des Moines

Posted on 06/22/2020 3:02:49 PM PDT by Pining_4_TX

Black Lives Matter organizers sent video of the incident to KCCI this weekend. The video appears to show a man drive his pickup truck through a protest near the Park Avenue Hy-Vee in Des Moines.

The company tweeted that it had terminated its relationship with Jeff Boucher, effective immediately.

“His actions over the weekend were unacceptable and do not represent the values Wyckoff has built our business on. Wyckoff disapproves of his behavior and in no way condones his actions. Wyckoff is a family-owned company founded on the principles of always doing the right thing for the betterment of our customers and our community.”

Can’t blame him. He’s heard of Reginald Denny.

See, you don’t need police, or laws, if you can get a mob to punish people who transgress your rules, whatever they are.

He should have stopped and been beaten to death.

That means he could have kept his job.

Well, I kind of feel bad for the company, what with a name like Wackoff and all.

LOL! His sacrifice would have been remembered for minutes.

Every Iowan should boycott Wyckoff Comfort. They are WAY to comfortable

He was not doing anything wrong he had the right of way. The mob were the ones causing trouble by blocking his way. He was caught unawares and had no idea what the attackers were capable of doing. The attackers were showing unreasonable aggression toward a total stranger who was not threatening them. The attackers were angry at the driver just for driving his truck as if he had no right to do so. This is totally hostile and unreasonable and uncivilized behavior. Recently rioters have thrown bottles of ice at people. These thugs are not civilized human beings.

Also, the attackers brought this private individual into a very dangerous situation where he will be reviled and hatedd by many total strangers. In the days of social media, he can be doxed by any hostile stranger and made a target of threat and even physical attacks. His family is also in danger.

His cowardly employers should be sued big time. If this innocent citizen can be thrown to the dogs by his employer than the employers owe him big time.

I sent them a message from their site with all my contact info. They are free to contact me if they had the guts to do it. I hope they get crushed.

WACKOFF is a company founded and run by a bunch of social justice warrior cowards.

I hope the guy sues them into bankruptcy and wins.

They should be sued out of business. That wasn’t even a company vehicle to my eyes, it appeared to be his personal property.

Where do they get off firing him for refusing to stop for an illegal blockage of a public thoroughfare where his own personal safety and his own property are at risk?

I swear, if I lived out there, I would be in front of that place with a sandwich board, and I would start a campaign to ensure nobody who did business with them would be ignorant of their unspeakable behavior.

These damn people illegally blocking roads are going to get someone killed.

If it were just them, I wouldn’t give a crap. But they are going to traumatize some innocent who happens to be driving by, ruin their life at best by getting them fired, and at worst, by hanging the lives of some dumb ass Leftist protesters around their neck. If the person doesn’t go to jail by a woke jury, they are going to have to live the rest of their lives with this thing eating at them.

Boy, does this piss me off.

Yes. See the byline of the video: "SOURCE: DSM Black Lives Matter".

Bill Whittle put out an excellent video back in August 2016 (gee, all that going around right before an election cycle...what a coincidence) which I started a thread on and can be seen here with explanations and links to the video:

Bill Whittle: Black Lives Matter Kills People

He starts off with:
"Black Lives Matter is a Democratic Party scam. It is a combination street army, terrorist organization, and voter turnout machine and has killed, and will continue to kill policemen, white people, hispanics, and Asians. Oh, and Black Lives Matter gets black people killed too."

Check out the seven minute video. If you wondered where all those billions of dollars 'donated' by 'woke' entities (such as Apple, Microsoft, the Ford Foundation and now dozens of companies never mind international entities that wish ill on our country including those 'Open Society' Soros foundations) go...there is your answer. It goes to places like "DSM Black Lives Matter".

They’re like highway men. Isn’t that sort of thing illegal? There’s no law and order. The innocent are condemned.
