Dairy Queen shut down a restaurant in Illinois after police said its owner “proudly admitted” to using a racial slur against a customer last week.
Owner to undergo sensitivity training ::) ::) edit: this is a better version...
Donald Trump’s election to the presidency is apparently giving license to people all across the country to express their racist feelings. And while you are entitled to your opinion and First Amendment right, you’re also entitled to face the consequences of that opinion.
That’s the case of a Dairy Queen franchise owner who let his bigotry get the better of him. A woman in Zion, Illinois recently went to a Dairy Queen in the city with her children. According to her, when she ordered her food and didn’t receive everything, she went back to the restaurant to get a $5 refund.
The simple request apparently sparked up owner James Crichton. He in-turn called 21-year-old Deianeira Ford and her children “blacks” and other racial slurs. This then reportedly caused Ford’s three-year-old daughter to ask what “black” meant.
Ford would later ask for the franchise owner’s name. First he told her it was “Bill Clinton” and then he supposedly said it was “Donald Trump.” Then he told Ford to go back from where she came from. A police officer would arrive on scene and confirm the series of events strangely because Crichton boasted that he made such terrible remarks.
“(Crichton) boastfully told me he would be happy to go to jail over the issue and proudly admitted to calling Ford a slur,” the officer relayed in his report. “He added that he was ‘fed up with black people.’” The report also states that Crichton used "black" freely in describing African Americans.
A Black Lives Matter protester later showed up to the Dairy Queen franchise to confront Crichton about his remarks. The owner then called the police and the same officer responded to the scene. Crichton claimed that “nothing racial took place” in the earlier hours even though he previously told the same officer it did.
“He did not recognize me as the officer who spoke to him this morning and I reminded him that he already admitted to me what he did,” the officer wrote. “He continued to contradict his story about this morning to me several more times and was becoming angered that I did not believe him.”
James Crichton later told the Lake County News-Sun that the whole thing was “99 percent lies” and “blown out of proportion.”
The Zion community has since rallied around Ford. Both the police chief and mayor have reached out. Chief Stephen Dumyahn said he was “disgusted and discouraged” by Crichton's comments.
Dairy Queen also issued a statement and plans on stripping Crichton’s franchise license. “We do not in any way condone his behavior or language. It is not what our brand stands for and is not representative of a DQ or its franchisee community,” it read. “The actions of this franchisee are inexcusable, reprehensible and unacceptable.”

Since it was in Zion, you'd have thought anti-Jew rants would have been the issue? Go figure.

My first job was DQ. Sucked ass.

Dairy Queen shut down a restaurant in Illinois after police said its owner “proudly admitted” to using a racial slur against a customer last week.
Owner to undergo sensitivity training ::) ::)
Deianeira Ford said DQ in Zion, Illinois, mixed up her order at the drive-through window, the Washington Post reported. When owner Jim Crichton wouldn’t fix the order, she asked for a refund. Instead, he hurled racist epithets at her.
“It was really just upsetting especially with having my children in the car,” Ford told The Associated Press. “I mean, no one deserves to be treated like that.”
So, she called the authorities.
The Lake County News-Sun said police arrived and found Ford “visibly upset and crying.” When the officer went inside the eatery, he said Crichton was “angry and was pacing continually back and forth 180 degrees around me.”
According to the Washington Post, the officer wrote that “Crichton boastfully told me he would be happy to go to jail over the issue,” and “proudly admitted” to using the racist slur. Crichton also told the officer he was “fed up with black people” and continued to freely use the slur in the conversation.
Although Crichton told the Lake County News-Sun that Ford’s accusations were “99 percent lies,” he later apologized:
“What I said was not appropriate and is something I cannot take back. I have no excuse. I can only ask for forgiveness and try to make it up to all involved.”
Dairy Queen initially said Crichton would undergo sensitivity training, AP noted. However, amid protests at the restaurant, Dairy Queen closed the location and said it would not reopen unless a new owner took control.
“The recent actions of this franchisee are inexcusable, reprehensible, unacceptable and do not represent the values of the Dairy Queen family, our employees, fans and other independent franchisees around the world,” the company said in a statement.

No, Dairy Queen pulled his franchise license. This guy should have just sat back and collected the money and let the workers deal with issues. Moron

I was in Hardee's one time and this black dude came up to the counter with a tray of empty wrappers and demanded a refund... said the food wasn't good enough. Lady said why did you eat it all,,, dude didn't have a real smart answer but he got his money back.... All the white people there were all like ::) ::) ::) ::)

I'll take a Beltbuster combo, steak finger basket and a large dip cone.
-
Good for him.Free fucking country feel free to say what you want.Its about time people start saying what they feel.Trump is setting a great example.Also what's wrong with saying blacks?You are black,if you take offense to that then you are admitting that black is bad.in my world blacks are blacks,midgets are midgets and so on.
-
can you blame the owner?......of course there are exceptions, but damn
-
I didn't know 'brews liked DQ. Thought they were more Carvel kinda people
-
What's his getbig handle?
Coach ;)
-
their cherry dipped ice cream cone was one of my all time favs
-
To be fair, there is just as much if not more black trash than white trash out there. Both are equally unpleasant.

Just wanted to point that out. Beat me to it.
Can I call the police when somebody uses WHITE slur towards me or is that just Zion, Illinois thing ?

Can't we just send all black people to live in Louisiana ? Let them fend for themselves. Create their own industry and support themselves. I'd even pay an extra $1000 in taxes to fund the new state of Blacksburgh
-
No issue with what he did, and I have no issue with DQ taking their franchise from him. If he wanted true freedom of speech, he should've opened his own store. That said, I doubt the lady was as innocent in all of this as she portrays herself.

Louisiana would become 2nd Liberia.

I see how businesses are able to survive in black communities. In Camden the Chinese restaurant is behind bullet proof glass and they have a tiny door to take money in and push food out. The liquor store has nothing that anyone can pick up and walk to the cash register. You have to ask for what you want and they will give it you. It's pay first.

I am the OP.... the original article said "ni66er" but a getbig mod did a word replace... ni66er to blacks

Same as everything else,can't say midget,retarded,fat,fuck all this shit.If you are that short you are a midget if you are black you are black.Its the people that are these things making these things bad words not me,I just tell it like it is.fuck this PC world.Speak the truth and that's all.

a dwarf might be a midget, there is a difference...

Depends on who you ask. Most of the black people I know consider themselves black, not African-American.
Then you have those folks that are in a constant state of offense. To them being called black is a slur.
Fuck these people, there's no pleasing them. If you're cool to them they say you're kissing their ass, if you don't kiss their ass then you're a racist. No pleasing them.

I would also pay additional taxes for such segregation if they act ni66er and not like a regular person.

I saw one of the posters on this topic mentioned the city of Camden. If this is the same Camden that we have in South Jersey I can tell you it's all black crime ridden hell hole of an area. However, they have one the best cardiac hospitals in the area and I my mother is there all of the time due to her 2-pack of cigarettes a day habit for the last 45-years. GPS one time took me right through the ghetto and I kid you not, the porches all have welded steel security bars on them like bird cages. I own a door and window company and know what security storm doors are but these porches are the craziest things ever.

There's already a Blacksburg in Virginia.

Zion, IL is an interesting little place in northern Illinois up near the Wisconsin border.
A lot of white trash hillbillies and construction worker types. This type of thing happens in those suburbs all the time, black "victim" and a black cop responds to the call.
DQ will back down on this and the guy will get his franchise back.

At least Ron updated it to say black and not guy like it used to.

It's not segregation. It's my enrichment plan for America.

Lol....Dairy Queen and every other franchise out there...McDonalds, Burger King, etc could give 2 shits about a store owner..... ;D

Why didn't they arrest Ford for falsely reporting a crime? ???

Because he actually broke a few laws.
-
So what's the problem?
-
He's clearly saying it for a reason. He must deal with a lot of shit Black customers. They probably cost him more business than he makes from them.
Everything's got to be PC these days. It's like the tennis promotor who came out a year ago and said he hated having to hold an event for women along with the mens as the mens tournament made all the money and supported the women's. He lost his licence to host the tournament. But you think someone is going to take it over and want to host the women's one after hearing the truth?
-
i worked fastfood at one time in a shitty neighbor and yes alot of the black customes were always trying to get stuff for free. i can see this guy boiling over after awhile
-
that owner isn't a fan of the chocolate dipped cones
-
Because he actually broke a few laws.
What laws did he break?its a sad day in America when an owner of any store can't say what he wants to anyone he wants.I don't care if you are black white yellow etc...if you don't want a certain type in your place be it black white gay then they can get the fuck out.
-
People say they want to be able to say what ever the fuck they want in Trumps new America. But, Trump himself loses his shit EVERY FUCKING TIME someone criticizes him on TV. He'll put his tampon in, hop onto his iphone, and cry about it on his safe space (Twitter) to like a baby back bitch.
Please, like you are so fucking tough.

If you haven't figured out why Trump uses Twitter to bypass the Fakestream Media, you are even more retarded than I thought you were.

Communicating threats for starters.....and no he can't say what he wants to say if he's owns a Dairy Queen. The franchise agreements are very strict in terms of servicing customers. Once he sells his Dairy Queen to another person, he can open up a bar but then again if he has any black employees, they could easily file a discrimination lawsuit and clean him out for any nickel he has.
Always think before you react because you simply cannot take it back

and ironically if he doesnt have any black employees a black person can still take every nickel for discrimination...

Funny thing about those people compared to white people...
Take my neighbor for instance...just retired, average job, and since he wasn't in sales or in management or IT, made the kind of money a lot of "ballers" probably laugh about, yet he owns his own home, has two decent trucks, and hasn't missed a meal.
Most of these big time "ballers" - even when they fall into millions of dollars - still end up sleeping under a bridge before they die flat broke.
Life is good.
