@mattvanswol There should be outrage, Kroger is evil America join me in never go there again. My opinion
🚨#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!!!!!!!
@kroger WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING???😡

@themodpun I live in SW Ohio and still fill up in Indiana ever since their Governor halted the state gas tax.
That coupled with my Kroger discount gas is well under $3 a gallon.
It's the small victories...
@NetworkDirecto1 @mattvanswol IDGAF about idiots stealing insured goods over the lives of the public and these employees
Kroger can survive swiped paper towels.
How will your family take losing you over it?
Fuck these guys
@EllSimonds @mattvanswol @kroger I avoid Kroger as much as possible. There’s so many cleaner options with better quality food
@mattvanswol @kroger this is shameful.
I continue to shop at your stores in TX bec I feel a sense of loyalty having grown up in Cincinnati.
I will no longer be doing that after seeing this story.
HEB it is…
@nmlinguaphile @ManCrushMullin @kroger Well, I’d love an 2A based armed, polite society, aggressive prosecution, and robust, effective policing, but wish in one hand…
In the meantime, we have to deal with what we have.
@kroger is this accurate? Was this employee fired for violating policy? If true, your C-suite & Bd need to do some real soul searching.
@rossiadam @mattvanswol @kroger Until people are willing to do the hard thing and stop shopping at places like @Kroger, Amazon etc, these companies will continue to treat their employees poorly.
@mattvanswol @kroger, have you no shame? You've enlisted me as a PR man for your company: I'll tell everyone I know about you firing an employee trying to protect another employee from criminals. You used to be the pride of Cincinnati; but this & your wokeism have made you our embarrassment.
@nmlinguaphile @kroger And for Kroger Plus Shopper's cardholders they'll provide employees for you to batter in the parking lot.

@mattvanswol Shame on Kroger! That's absolutely disgusting!
@ChrisDunga1 @nmlinguaphile @kroger They would go rob a higher end store and not a grocery store with a billion witnesses, dumb mfer.
@mattvanswol My family will never spend another penny at Kroger.
@GuntherEagleman Kroger needs to acknowledge and honor this hero
