@GuntherEagleman Lawyer up and sue@kroger
Everyone knows he was fired for being white and trying to stop n!ggers from committing a crime. If the employee was black, he would be hailed as a hero and not fired.
@kroger hates white people.
🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting in Georgia after a White Kroger manager who ran into the parking lot to protect an ELDERLY co-worker from MASKED Black shoplifters was BEATEN, left with a CONCUSSION and STAPLES...
...and then FIRED by Kroger 3 DAYS LATER for helping her!!!
After 14 YEARS WORKING THERE!!!!!!
Yes, you read that right.
Sixteen months later, the men who put him in the hospital have never been arrested.
Not one.
His name is Michael Self.
For 14 years, he ran the Kroger on North Decatur Road in DeKalb County.
On the morning of Saturday, May 24th, 2025, around 8:20 a.m., masked shoplifters walked out of his store.
An elderly employee followed them outside.
Cellphone video shows what happened next. The masked suspects swung a bag of paper towels at her.
Then they SHOVED her.
Michael ran out to help her.
"I literally just wanted to draw the tension away from my associates, get them to stop and everybody just be done," he said.
"As I got away from that door, someone hit me in the back of the head with something."
The video shows him on the ground.
He left Emory University Hospital with a concussion and staples in his head.
AND IT GETS WORSE.
Three days later, Kroger fired him.
Yes, after fourteen years a father of three was TERMINATED FROM HIS JOB for trying to protect an elderly woman.
The reason?
"He violated the company's shoplifting policy."
The termination letter, Michael says, accused HIM of starting the fight.
"I didn't even get to talk to the people that decided to fire me," he said.
So the rule is: watch the elderly cashier get shoved in the parking lot.
Do nothing to help her.
Keep your job.
Step in? You're the problem and you're fired
OH, and the Black men in the masks?
DeKalb County police say the case is "still open."
No names.
No descriptions.
No arrests.
AFTER 16 months.
They beat an old woman, cracked a man's skull open, and walked away with paper towels and their freedom.
The only person who has faced any consequence for what happened in that parking lot is the man who tried to stop it.
Michael is finally telling his side of the story because he is still fighting to clear his name and still looking for work.
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!!
UNBELIEVABLE: 14 YEARS of loyalty thrown in the trash! 🤬
Meet Michael Self. For 14 years, he managed the Kroger on North Decatur Road in DeKalb County, Georgia. He was a dedicated employee and a father of three.
But on May 24th, 2025, his life was flipped upside down because he chose to be a decent human being.
When a group of masked shoplifters walked out of the store, an elderly employee followed them out. The suspects swung a bag at her and SHOVED her. Michael didn't hesitate. He ran into the parking lot to protect his elderly co-worker and pull the attention away from her.
The result? Michael was struck from behind, ending up in the hospital with a CONCUSSION and STAPLES in his head.
And how did Kroger reward his bravery? THEY FIRED HIM THREE DAYS LATER. 🛑
Kroger claimed he violated their "shoplifting policy" and corporate paperwork even tried to accuse HIM of starting the fight. He wasn't chasing them for groceries; he was protecting a vulnerable woman! But corporate logic says: watch your elderly co-worker get assaulted, do absolutely nothing, and keep your job. Step in to help? You're terminated.
Meanwhile, 16 months later, the masked criminals who cracked his head open are still walking free. The police case is "still open," but no arrests have been made. The only person who faced any real consequences is the man who tried to do the right thing.
Michael is still fighting to clear his name and looking for work. Share his story. This is corporate greed and cowardice at its absolute worst!
Dear Kroger.
Do better. You should have given this manager a commendation for him protecting his employees. Most companies would love to have management care this much for fellow humans. Instead you fire him. Shame on you, @kroger

@mattvanswol There are lots of other grocery stores, @kroger. You might be surprised how little it takes to decide to go somewhere else.
@kroger @mattiehunt Yall should be ashamed of yourselves. Never shopping at your stores ever again and will make sure everyone around me knows why and hears the story. Time to put yall out of business and post the story everywhere. Fucking losers
@paul_e_jones @SMB_path @mattvanswol @kroger I could respect the policy better if they spent their dollars on finding the perpetrators and bringing them to justice. No - they feed on welfare, working people and their own employees and VICTIMIZE THEIR WORKERS.

@mattvanswol A family member works for Kroger and you agree when you take the job you will not get involved in this stuff. It can get really ugly and the store ends up sued in the process.
Will never shop for Kroger products ever again. @kroger you are disgusting. Should be ashamed of yourselves.
