You Gonna Arrest Me After I Questioned My Bill?

Donald Copeland went to a Florida Waffle House for food. He left out almost being tased and shot by Fort Walton Beach Police.
Waffle House is on the verge of a boycott from Black America. Not only there was a mass shooting at a Nashville location but numerous incidents that involved fights, the law being called because managers had disputes with Black customers and the video footage of dirty cops roughing up people.

Fort Walton Police arrest a couple after the manager of a Waffle House called.

The couple were upset they were being charged for an extra serving of orange juice. As upset customers, they confront the manager over the surcharge.

The employees decided to call the cops and that's when the trouble started.



After the couple paid for the food, they told to leave the property.

Waffle House immediately reached out to the couple. They offered a full refund. They also are working to see the individuals who called on the law on them are being retrained. The damage is done.

Identified in the body camera footage is Donald Copeland.

Copeland saw his life flash before his eyes. Why was he getting arrested?

The Waffle House company apologized for whole situation. They released a public statement.

"As anyone who has dined with us knows, we have a very diverse customer base and workforce. We have had a culture of inclusion since we opened our doors in 1955, and are very proud of the fact that our restaurants have been open to all.  We understand the concern over these incidents, and welcome continued communication with the community, its leaders and the customers involved.While we regret that the incidents happened at all, after reviewing all the available information, including witness statements and our own in-store videos, we believe that in the Saraland, Ala., and Warsaw, N.C., incidents our employees made the right decision to contact the police in light of safety concerns for the customers and themselves."
