    Default Taco Bell has no spine

    Taco Bell told Insider the chain apologized to Denzel Skinner, the worker who was fired, last week and that the chain does not prohibit employees from wearing Black Lives Matter masks. #RIPTacoBell was trending in the United States on Twitter on Thursday, with people sharing messages of support for Skinner as well as recipes to recreate Taco Bell favorites at home. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. Taco Bell is facing backlash after a video showing a worker being fired for wearing a Black Lives Matter mask went viral. Denzel Skinner went live on Facebook on June 8, telling viewers that he was losing his job at a Taco Bell location on Belmont Ave. in Youngstown, Ohio, because he was wearing a Black Lives Matter mask. Skinner told WBKN First News that he had been a shift leader at the location for eight years, and said that the store's air conditioning had broken — which meant the surgical masks provided to employees made it harder to breathe when it was warm. He said that he decided to switch to the Black Lives Matter mask because it was easier to breathe through. When a manager asked him to take it off, he told WBKN First News, he refused and walked out of the restaurant. He said that he was told if he walked out, he would lose his job. In the Facebook live video, a female voice, allegedly belonging to the manager, can be heard saying, "You can't bring politics into the building." "Bro, I'm not bringing politics in," Skinner says in the video. "This is what I'm standing for. How is this considered politics?"

    Scared of backlash. Everyone is peeing on themselves trying to get in line to political correctness and social media.

    There is also a rising counterculture of everyday folks doing the exact opposite.......if it's ok for some folks to say what they feel , then it's ok for all.
