#Juneteenth #WHEC #Rochester
” Those who refuse to learn from the past are doomed to repeat them.” People like this woman continue to push racism, until her hatred literally destroys her reputation, family life and more. They got what they deserve!
I’m black and I don’t have a problem with these racist parties. In fact I love the idea. Gather all up in one place for me and my friends to stop by and say hello. Lol might get a lil hot inside
What exactly are they being sued for? It’s not against the law to do that, even if they actually did.
It’s not against the law people . Get a life and stop worrying what others do
Lmao 😂 omg
What a brave man Jarod is. Good for him!
No pictures of your original party at all??? Only pictures of the “recreated setup”????? Hmmmmmm
Who cares…..This is America…..Blacks are far more racist than any other race and yet they get a pass….so FU
Who cares if they did?
Everyone’s racist, what’s new?! 🙄
Also how is serving fried chicken at a party racist?! What were they supposed to serve?
There are racists everywhere. How do you sue for that.
Oh right Team America.
I would sue too if I was forced to go to that godawful party
Look at these nasty people just forcing the tears stop it, you’re racist it’s in your DNA, you know it, you love it, own it.
Never give in and never say sorry…
What’s going to be, handle it…
And never cry…..
Wow, caught in the lie. I know that lawyer feels real dumb after defending them!
I worked as a security guard in federal office on mlk day and Juneteenth should be banned. Black peoples don’t even know what day those days land on. Most were surprised. Some morons even asked who mlk was.
Man I would of attended.
Democrats were the slaveholders during Juneteenth
Juneteenth is a singular joke and doesn’t need to be defined by anyone. The fact that so many hypocrites can publicly speak about it without bursting out in laughter shows the cultural abyss we are sliding into.
I challenge you”. Then they find racist tweets. If ur racist don’t lie about, keep it 💯
Democrats are racist
BLM is racist
The ACLU is bigoted
The NAACP are racist and bigots
CRT is a Marxist/Racist ideology
The list is way to long to list.
Maybe we need to stop this Woke insanity
Democrats Hate America and Americans
America’s awesome the greatest place on Earth when you can Sue someone because they dint agree with your mental illness
What a disgusting and sad pair.
Why do they lie so much ?
Cancel culture can be cruel. 🤣 he’s the victim
He was forced to go? By whom? Sue the FDNY.
Illegation? ..ugh
You should have thought about that first.. your 20 years of hard work, your kids..all valuable reasons to never be associated with anything like this. Racist tweets and then throwing an event like this just to get his reaction was silly and mean and it looks like it only hurt you all. Sad
Why would racists invite people they supposedly hate to a party? This story is bs
They need to put this much energy into saving Whittekids from older Whitemen like Jeff Epastin and Catholic Priest 😅😅😅
As soon as the crying husband mentioned “cancel culture” – it became obvious he was lying.
Trash is as trash does.
Django?
Now they know how we feel. 🤣
LMFAO!!!!!
Family Lawyer : “The black face was done very tastefully and was in fact a tribute to the Cosby show.”
What’s the crime?
Lawyer: Find any racist content.
Reporter: *STREET FIGHTER NEW OPPONENT MUSIC*
A NEW CHALLENGER HAS ENTERED
Racism will not be tolerated no fking more,hold these disgusting humans accountable for their actions ,and for the lieing you make me sick and disgusted. Typical elite bs.
If you are going to be a racist, just admit it….it’s ok
🤣
Whatever you do at the press conference, just don’t drink the tea, water, kool aid, or lemonade. It will be your last if your black, and they won’t claim responsibility for that either.
I’m guessing they went to college, got drunk everyday until they realized what their purpose in life was. What’s understood doesn’t have to be explained unless you get caught. Afterward have a press conference to clear things up wit some tears of regret. I hope they have a perfect exit strategy for their business because that’s over with.
The Nr should be flogged
Lol the fake cry
Juneteeth should be mocked it needs to be mocked. Juneteeth has nothing to do with emancipation. Just like Emancipation proclamation had nothing to do with freeing slaves it was to keep the south from suceeding. Emancipation proclamation gave the souhter states opportunity to keep their slaves whlist the northern states did not need to parcipate in slavery.
Who really cares about Juneteenth? Not me. Trump 2024!!!
Juneteenth isn’t a Holiday, and holidays can be mocked as much as anyone wants to.
This guy’s captain “forced” him to go to a party, creating a hostile work environment. The most unbelievable thing about that, is that a jury will probably believe it!
Play the victim I love it I love when they play the victim
Lol Karen and husband
How was he forced to go to a party?
Come on now, they’re lying! It’s always funny till you get caught.
So what happened at the party? What was said, what was done? What did the Twitter tweets say? Let’s have some info other than the claim. I don’t support racism, but I need to know that it’s actually true.
I’m so confused. They served Hennessy and Fried chicken and invited black ppl. Almost all of the black people I know would simply admit to lovin both.
If you are having a press conference…… we’ll you are guilty AF
Ask you shall receive 😂
So now if we do the same we get the chair
Cancel culture, wah…
These hateful scum have feelings for themselves and none for the people they offend. I hope this young man prospers from their evil, ignorant actions.
Their *own* actions are what “hurt” their children.
And you can tell that lady is racist by looking at her.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a watermelon remark
Own it. Apologize. Be done. Crying over ur “kids” (50yo) being bullied on social media is kinda laughable. Stoped watching
Give me a break Who cares
Trump 2024, this is just ridiculous now parties are a cause of court appearances and being sued this is just getting so out of control
Seriously though these people shouldn’t care the word racist is being thrown around so much it is a joke
For people of privilege, equality feels like persecution….
America needs to stop being a nation of pandering pushovers and let ppl be themselves.
You can have racist parties all you want to this is America.
Just don’t be surprised when you get called out for it.
And definitely don’t go on television whining about your actions…
The word racist means nothing in today’s society.
I don’t care at all lol it’s HILARIOUS
They look like real winners.
Why would you make a black person come to that vile “party”? Idiots.
What you mad for !!! I guess nobody wants to go to heaven anymore !!!
LMAO. He was crying cause he got caught
Juneteenth should get mocked. Black mfs got black colleges, black bars, black holidays that last an entire month. And then just when I thought y’all couldn’t get any dumber were burning down part of Portland Oregon because black lives mattered so much. But meanwhile the white people ran into a building that they paid for and didn’t even destroy anything but that’s called a riot.
Freedom of speech. Who cares
And so if they did???
The only reason it’s a holiday is because democrats needed to pander to black people…. anyone who celebrates it is slapping black people in the face. I mean the dude who made it a federal holiday is in fact a racist himself so…..
seriously? who the heck cares what they did at their party? this is stupid.
Thank God
More proof of people’s obsession with blackness and POC. NO WAY am I going to spend MY time and MY money focused on a group of people just to be a hater and spend my life focused on demeaning and mocking them. There is PLANNING and THOUGHT that goes into parties, and everytime petty people throw parties mocking blacks, latinos, indian and asian people, they prove how much they waste time and privilege on those groups of people.
Being racist is such a waste of time and energy and just a dumb thing to waste your life on.
Wow. What bs
Simple solution. Make your feelings known and leave.
Where’s the proof though?
Bet he just wanted money from some rich people. That’s how those people succeed in life. Not work but robbing when they can
Im really confused? Are these people important? Who made this guy go to the party? Why? Why is this a court problem.? I’m so confused.
This firefighter got invited to a party with free fried chicken? What’s he complaining about? I’d be happy to get invited to that party. I’d even want watermelon too.
Reap what you sow, so save ya tears for your pillow.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH
What’s really funny and ironic is they’re Italian, not even White. 🤦🏻♂️
and they cry on camera tear of anguish and sorrow bc they ain’t racist.
REMEMBER WHEN BIDEN SAID HE DIDNT WANT HIS KIDS GROWING UP IN A RACIAL JUNGLE.
REMEMBER WHEN HE SAID POOR KIDS ARE JUST AS SMART AS WHITE KIDS
REMEMBER WHEN HE SAID HE LOVED THE “ROACHES RUBBING THEIR HANDS UP MY HAIRY LEGS IN THE POOL”
REMEMBER HE GAVE THE EULOGY FOR A FORMER KLAN MEMBER.
A BLACK POLITICIAN RECENTLY SAID TO TREAT WHITES HORRIBLE AND NONE OF YOU CARE ON THIS COMMENT THREAD I GUARANTEE IT. LOOKS LIKE THE TYPICAL YANKEE FAMILY TO ME
finding out you can’t be rich and racist is going come as shock to some people.
Why is this family important? I’ve never heard if these people.
HE”S in a POSITION to CARE FOR PEOPLE: SCARY!
There is a Shakespearean saying that reminds me of this…something about ye doth protest too much is the guilty party.
Look at how quick their tears dried up, everyone can hear the bs so idk why they’re trying to act like they ain’t racist
No one cares. This isn’t news worthy. MSN is trash.
