The company may have been most nervous about this coming to light as a result of the fracas:

“...Court filings show a long history of charges against Boucher, including domestic abuse assault causing injury or mental illness, operating while intoxicated and burglary.”

I’ll agree that they were putting him into a bad situation. Backing the truck out of the lot and into traffic was a no-go, and backing it up in an area where there were people milling around was unsafe. Driving past an obvious mess to another store might have been his best option. There’s another grocery three minutes east on Park Avenue.

That is certainly interesting. Why would this company hire someone with that background to begin with?

Even with that, though, these so-called protesters have no right to block traffic or stop someone from going about their daily business, and then trying to get the somebody fired. They are the true fascists.

Mr. Boucher doesn’t sound like the most upstanding of citizens, but now all his dirty laundry has been published by the press, who love to side with the antifa thugs. And nothing will happen to the protesters for what they have done.
