Budweiser incident (not a joke!) 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 tr! uck, 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. Furthe! rmore, word spread and
all vendors followed suit!
At l ast report, the store was closed indefinitely.
Good old American Passive-Aggressive Ass Whoopin'!
Pass this along.
America needs to know that we're all working together.
God Bless America!!

and i'm sure both of the storeowners never met anything more than passive aggression, except for maybe some unkind words that may have slipped. but can you imagine what would happen to an american civilian working in saudi, if he were to have the audacity to openly cheer at some terrorist attack on mecca or riyadh? the kindest thing that could happen would be a crazy raving mob tearing him to pieces.
really, doesnt take einstein to figure who has the moral high ground here. all humans are flawed, but we're better people than that.

Good story; however, research seems to indicate that it never happened.
