Black brunch protesters who think making political points means disrupting Sunday afternoon meals are stunned at the reception they’re getting these days.
They’re getting either kicked out by diners and staff fed up with the disruptions — or ignored entirely.
The whole restaurant yelled and swore at us. A man followed us outside to keep yelling asking us if white lives matter too. #BlackBrunchMN

That was in Minnesota, a generally liberal state but one known for good manners. And having good manners definitely doesn’t include bursting into restaurants and ruining a Sunday meal. The protesters were so stunned it’s laughable.
#BlackBrunchMN at Maynard’s was so elevated and violent so fast that I couldn’t even tweet or take pictures. — Great White Shark™ (@colocha_rachel) March 22, 2015
The demonstrators couldn’t tweet or take pictures while committing a crime. Is this country racist or what?[…]
In Atlanta, meanwhile, pompous protesters proudly posted video of themselves disrupting diners. But beyond the self-congratulations, the videos pretty clearly show the diners — white and black — aren’t erupting into applause.
