Genuine American entrepreneurship and humor runs into PC.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — An Italian restaurant in New Mexico is drawing criticism on social media for making merchandise with a slogan mimicking the Black Lives Matter movement.

News station KOAT-TV in Albuquerque reports that Paisano's in Albuquerque is selling "black olives matter" shirts and hats after making national headlines for putting the phrase on a sign outside the restaurant.

Yes. And I went to school with Rick. Grade school through high school. He used to live across the street.

I miss the food. Sadie's, Little Anita's, Casa de Benavidez, Church Street Café, The Range... green chiles... Mexican food in South Carolina sucks...

My grandfather used to own the property Casa De Benavidez was built on. They still use his old office for storage. The huge tree on their patio used to be in my back yard. Great food there. Church Street cafe is awesome too. My kids like to go there because they believe it's haunted.
