• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Joe Ortega, I feel you okay, and you did the

  Speaker 1: right thing. It's a damn shame that the Popeyes near
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Punch Daily on Avenue in Atlanta, Georgia tried to stop
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: you from doing the right thing because they called the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: police on Joe for simply trying to buy a homeless
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: man food. I can't make this kind of stuff up.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Fox five Atlanta for the report. Police
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: g SU Senior Joe Ortega was door dashing last week
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: at the Popeyes off of Pounce. She noticed a man
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: off to the side who looked hungry. When she offered
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: to get him food. This was how employees reacted. No, man,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: why he's asking for fooling him? You can't do I'm
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: forgetting infect you recording me by man, have your name
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: talk to let the people know. George. Tega says she
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: was just trying to do a good deed. I can't
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: order for this homeless man right here who asked for food.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Her initial disbelief that employees wouldn't let her buy a
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: two piece for the man experiencing homelessness, they called the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: cops on me. Everything bro quickly turned into anxiety when
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the cops showed up. At that moment, I was terrified.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I thought I was going to get arrested. So I
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: said I was like, well, maybe I should just call
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: my family and tell I might not be coming home
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: to night. APD confirmed that they did respond, but they
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: didn't do anything since Ortega didn't break any laws. Also
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: grateful that man with the empty stomach. My name's Jazz
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and Stacey. Oftentimes the homeless I treated like straight animals,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: straight cats. But you can feed them, they're going to
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: keep coming back. We don't want them to keep coming back.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: And in all of this, I believe that you know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: people deserve to be treated like people, and they're they're
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: not animals. They're humans. Okay, we all are. Is just
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: some of us lack humanity? What is humanity? And qualities
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that make us humans? Such as but not limited to
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the ability to love and have compact. Now, I understand
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Popeye is not wanting to have homeless people may be
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: loitering around the restaurant, But let me ask you a
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: simple question. If I'm homeless and hungry, well, I would
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I hang around all I wanted some shelter, awesome food.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I know I'm not gonna get no shelter in this restaurant,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: but maybe, just maybe somebody will throw me a three
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: piece tend to combo. Okay, this is what I don't
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: understand about workers of that place is like Popeyes, why
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: do you care if someone wants to buy a homeless
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: person food? How can you deny them? Now, it's not
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: like they're asking you to give them a free popcorn
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: shrimp combo. Joe simply noticed the fellow human in need
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and decided to go purchase that man a two piece,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: all right, two piece biscuit mashed Potator's life is good.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Make sure you get that homeless man some water to
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: wash it down, because that Popeye's biscuit not going down
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: without a fight. It's not going down without new liquid. Okay,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: why Popeye's employees, seriously, just why? And then the call
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: to police on that young lady simply because that young
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: lady was doing the right thing. How you wake up
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: in the morning feeling evil, not wanting to serve somebody.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: He's something that y'all gonna throw away at the end
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: of the night anyway. So what if that homeless person
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: had his own money, would y'all deny him service? If so,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: that's a form of discrimination that should automatically send you
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to health for at least three months. Okay, you don't
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: got to be there for eternity, but you need to
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: be in health at least three months, just just enough
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to come out extra crispy. Okay. Now, Joe eventually did
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: get a hold of a general manager at the store
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: who felt terrible about the whole thing, and he ended
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: up letting her in the homeless man Jazz order anything
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: they wanted that night free a charge, dropping the clues
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: bums of that general manager. Okay, God bless that general manager.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Listen to. Moral of the story is this, do things
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: for people, not because of who they are are what
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: they do in return, but because of who you are.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: It's simple, Joe, you showed me that you are a
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: beautiful person with integrity, that cares about others. Popeyes and
