For MLK Day, Spice Company Says All Republicans 'Racist,' Want to 'Shoot a Black Person'
newsweek ^ | 1/18/22 | Daniel Villarreal

n Martin Luther King (MLK) Jr. Day, a spice company sent out an email calling all Republicans "racist" who largely hope to one day "shoot a Black person."

Penzeys Spices, a Wisconsin-based company, issued an email promotion Jan. 14 dubbing the MLK holiday weekend, "Republicans are racist weekend."

The promotion went on to accuse Republicans of opposing BLM's success "in moving America towards greater equality for Black people, in many ways the first real success since the time of Dr. King," during the racial justice protests that erupted nationwide during summer 2020.

"Republicans did all they could to derail that success by trying to drown out BLM's message with shouts of all lives matter, and blue lives matter, and lying about the leaders of BLM being Marxists and Communists," the company's promotion said.

The promotional message then accused Republicans of labeling BLM activists as "terrorists inciting violence throughout the country" and then "[racing] out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person."

"What a bunch of racists," the message continued. It then accused Republicans of gerrymandering, making it harder for people of color to vote and of supporting former President Donald Trump, a man who characterized Mexican immigrants as "rapists" and "murderers."

They are nuts.

What if President Trump actually were a racist, tyrannical despot those four years?

What if we were actually like the Leftists portray us?

What if it came true?

“...lying about the leaders of BLM being Marxists and Communists,”


Didn’t BLM leadership brag about being trained Marxists? So accurately quoting someone is now a lie.

Coming from their standpoint that everything is racist, yes.

They know it’s not true.
It’s a publicity stunt.

It got them national attention.

So it worked.................................

I love Penzy spices - that being said, I was getting emails from that crazy bastard who owns it that bashed President Trump and Republicans.

I emailed him and told him to go f himself. Never got another email.

in many ways the first real success since the time of Dr. King,

Some people might think this is an insult to President Obama.

Don’t know if we ever used their product or not. But at least we know now what to avoid.

I think it is the other way around. Blacks like to shoot white people. Dems have so demonized whites, calling them Nazis and the like-well who doesn’t want to shoot a Nazi? That is why, even thought the dems keep saying that it is the whites that harm people it is actually the blacks who kill everybody. Show me a killing by a white supremisist and I will show you 20 (or more) by blacks against whites.

We’re from Louisiana (though we’ve been in northern Illinois for over 30 years, and are retired), and we cook and eat New Orleans and Cajun cuisine all the time. Neither my wife nor I have ever heard of Penzys, nor would we have used their products if we had: We use the real thing, from Louisiana and other Gulf states.
