Please Boycott Papa John's!!

So, by now, everyone has heard about this incident by the chairman and founder of Papa John's, John Schnatter, right?

Yes, he used the worst racial slur towards blacks during a conference call in May, and was then forced to resign in disgrace.

Now, while I was not aware that he was a blatant racist, I was aware that he treated his workers like complete garbage. He was one of those rich owners who feel that everyone else should make sacrifices so that he can line his pockets. If they go without a livable wage, or without adequate health insurance, all the better, so long as it meets the bottom line: more money for him.

For years, I had heard horrendous things about this guy, and made a point of avoiding Papa John's like the plague.

This was not hard to do, frankly, because years earlier, before I knew all of this, I had tried some of their pizza and, in all honesty, it was disgusting. No, I am not just saying that because this man, and always has been, reprehensible. Truly, their pizza was disgusting, and I remember having to wipe off the loads of grease on the top of the pizza before even beginning to attempt to consume it.

That said, their bread sticks were pretty good, admittedly. But why make a point of going to them just for bread sticks?

The point is, I usually got some strange looks whenever someone offered to get Papa John's, and I would vehemently say no.

But if there was ever a time to boycott this business, it's now. It hardly matters that Mr. Schnatter himself is no longer on top there. The fact of the matter is that he used a racial slur on a conference call, which means other people heard him and were aware. And since this happened a couple of months ago, that means that it did not come out immediately, which is to say that some of the people, at least, did not mention anything about it. That they covered it up, essentially, or at best, swept it under the rug.

Now is the time to boycott Papa John's!

No more bullshit!
