People are noting the irony of a Chick-fil-A in Philadelphia being looted by rioters just months after the company’s CEO Dan Cathy shined a black rapper’s shoes in a pro-Black Lives Matter PR stunt.

BLM supporters and other criminal opportunists reacted to the police shooting of Walter Wallace Jr., who was killed after advancing towards officers with a knife, by staging violent unrest, attacking police and looting stores.

After targeting a local Walmart and Footlocker, looters turned their attention to Chick-fil-A, smashing into and damaging a branch of the food chain.

According to reporter Julio Rosas, who has covered numerous BLM riots, he hasn’t “seen anything like this on this scale since Minneapolis back in May.”

30 officers were injured on the first night of the riots, with one female sergeant being run over by a truck driven by BLM rioters.

The sight of criminals taking advantage of a Black Lives Matter demonstration to smash up Chick-fil-A is deliciously ironic given the bizarre behavior of the company’s CEO back in June.

A few months ago the CEO of Chick fil A publicly shined a black man's shoes in order to demonstrate his wokeness. Last night BLM looted and destroyed one of his stores.

During a discussion about “repentance and shame” at Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia, Dan Cathy got up to shine the shoes of a black rapper called Lecrae while apologizing profusely.

“I invite folks to just, to put some words to action here,” Cathy said as he shined Lecrae’s shoes. “And if we need to find somebody that needs to have their shoe shined, we need to just go right on over, and shine their shoes.”

Numerous people reacted by commenting how awkward the scene looked and how it was made all the more bizarre by the fact that around a dozen Chick-fil-A stores were vandalized during the George Floyd & Rayshard Brooks protests.
