Georgia Lawmaker Claims Chick-Fil-A Employee Told Her To Go Back To Her Country, Later Clarifies He Actually Said ‘My Pleasure’

Via The Babylon Bee

ATLANTA, GA—Georgia state rep Erica Thomas took to social media this weekend to express her disgust and outrage at a Chick-fil-A employee’s comments to her in the restaurant’s drive-thru. According to her viral Twitter post, the black state worker claims that after saying thank you for her food, the white cashier pointed his finger at her and angrily shouted, “Go back to your country!”

“This is what’s happening in Trump’s America,” the post concluded.

Thousands of online users shared and commented on the post, showing their support for Thomas and their rage at the racist attack.

Chick-fil-A immediately investigated the claim, and security footage revealed the employee, who is of Chinese descent, said nothing even remotely close to the alleged comments.

In light of the information, Thomas walked back her claim a bit. “He definitely said something to me. I initially thought it was the ‘go back to your country’ thing, but now that I think about it, it may have been ‘my pleasure.'”

Even after the clarification, the Chick-fil-A employee still wrote Thomas a written apology for any misunderstanding, and the restaurant manager gave her coupons for a week’s worth of free chicken biscuits.

Isn’t this the same lady who swore she was targeted by racists who sprayed a worrisome yellow powder all over her car. She called the police and HAZMAT squad to come investigate–however it turned out to be tree pollen. True story…..

Same crazy, but a different person. The yellow powder story came from Mayor Darnell Byrd McPherson, in South Carolina.

When all you are ever holding are race cards, you have nothing else to play.

Stores cause these problems by NOT enforcing the limits THEY imposed on the checkout lines. For sure, she is of the demographic that would automatically get a “pass” in the Atlanta area, simply because of the racial issues. God I can’t wait to get out of this place.

Just another person feeding at the govt tough trying to stir up trouble.
WHY is this even newsworthy?????

Pretty obvious she was just after the free meal.

Big stretch from “Go back to your country…” —
5 words —- to “My pleasure.” —2 words. Ah, the public schools simply just aren’t what they used to be!! Folks used to be able to count.

I wonder how many establishments – especially Christian establishments – she has done this to. She really should go to Africa…take a trip… or maybe just to the streets of Chicago…or L.A…..she may appreciate what she has. BUH BYE. Don’t let the door hit you on the….

The BEE is a parody site. Her actual bullshit stems from another incident at a Metro Atlanta Publix supermarket.

The old-time segregationists were right, all along. They KNEW that blacks would never be able to conform to (white) normal societal standards and needed to exist in their own societies. In fact, black businesses were doing quite well until the “civil-rights (for some)” push in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The fall of segregation was the death knell for black-owned businesses.

She is the same woman, even wearing the same T-shirt, who accused a white man of saying the same thing to her in a grocery store: https://www.cbs46.com/news/cobb-man-might-sue-georgia-lawmaker-who-claims-he-told/article_bc8042a2-acaa-11e9-81ac-eba8b865262b.html

Erica Thomas also claimed a customer at a Publix told her to go back to her country just last week. I think Ms Thomas will say anything because she’s a lying POS.

And as long as there are no consequences for defamation, slander or libel by liberals they will continue trying to destroy people. This woman may have been born in Georgia, elected as State Representative there, but she’s obviously a hateful racist. Then again, we’ve come to expect that from certain people…
