The Budweiser Story
(not a joke)
This is TRUE.
How Budweiser handled those who laughed at those
who died on the 11th of September, 2001.
Thought you might like to know what happened
in a little town north of Bakersfield , California.
(After you finish reading this,
please forward this story on to others
so that our nation and people around the world
will know about those who laughed
when they found out about the tragic events
in New York , Pennsylvania , and the Pentagon.
On September 11th).
A Budweiser employee was making a delivery
to a convenience store in a California town
named McFarland.
He knew of the tragedy that had occurred
in New York when he entered the business
to find the two Arabs, who owned the business, whooping and hollering to show their approval
and support of this treacherous attack.
The Budweiser employee went to his truck,
called his boss and told him
of the very upsetting event!
He didn't feel he could be in that store with those
horrible people. His boss asked him,
'Do you think you could go in there long enough
to pull every Budweiser product and item
our beverage company sells there?
We'll never deliver to them again.'
The employee walked in,
proceeded to pull every single product his
beverage company provided and left
with an incredible grin on his face.
He told them never to bother to call for
a delivery again.
Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice
for that community.
Just letting you know how Kern County
handled this situation. And Now
The Rest Of The Story:
It seems that the Bud driver and the Pepsi man
are neighbors. Bud called Pepsi and told him.
Pepsi called his boss who told him to
pull all Pepsi products as well!
That would include Frito Lay, etc.
Furthermore, word spread and
all vendors followed suit! At last report,
the store was closed indefinitely.
If you can read this.

Thanks Sean for the edit!
Still a great story in the heart of America. I believe it never happened, but still made me grin. Too bad the story didn't have him pummeling them two.
It is a great story that spreads hate, that maked people feel powerful in a powerless moment. I watched here on TV as the towers fell and actually called my family around the world to say look on TV at what is happening. I also watched the Palestinian media report people cheering in the street. In retrospect you have to see what they endure on an hourly basis for generations to understand that reaction even though it was disgusting. My kids came home about 3PM from school and at 5PM I went out to the supermarket to get supplies, even though everyone with any sense stayed home. So many of the Egyptian people came up to me and said "we are so sorry, we are your friends." I was the only person out in what would normally be a very busy shopping hour.
Your letter is chain mail to spread discrimination and hate and very often those have viruses, your computer is probably already infected.
Juliet, how dare you!
How dare I what?
If you can't figure it out, not even a clue, then I can't explain it to you. I won't even waist my time typing.
I do hope someone else comes on here to give her a clue though.
Juliet,He's off his meds or on them. You made a very valid point in reality as you saw it unfold. Don't let em get you down:)Hate seems like the norm on this blog.
Thank you Joanna. You and Juliet hate anyone that is not like you. You attack people who need medication. You know Ric works with these people every day, and he loves them. It is his choice to be there, not for the money. People who have disabilities, even mental ones are just as normal as anyone else. To criticize someone for needing 'meds' is disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Hey DRL, you can be my bodyguard anytime! ;) I’m glad that you were able to restrain your true personal remorse towards their idiotic responses. Working with the mentally ill, I recognize crazy responses and just ignore them. Love you brother! Hey, Thank a Soldier, Marine, Sailor, Airman or Coast Guard dude that you see and thank them for their honorable Service. (And did I mention I was in New York during the terrorist attacks)?
Ric everyone was somewhere during the attacks and everyone around the world has in someway been affected by them. I did not agree with the behavior of the Palestinians I said it was disgusting so what part of that did you not read. But you have to learn what makes a group of people cheer in the street if you want to understand all the issues so that you can deal with them effectively. Now on a more personal note since you two got personal...
