1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Kato Mealy, the owner of a coffee shop in Lynn,

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,559
Speaker 1: mass Jose's, found out the damage social media can do

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: to a thriving enterprise. On Facebook, ms Mealy's daughter, Sophie

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: said the shop would never host a coffee with a

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: cop event. She said that cops are bullies. She's adamantly

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: anti police. After getting pushed back online, she doubled down.

7
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: She said that police uphold an unjust system and the

8
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: police commit murder without consequence. While a firestorm erupted, ms

9
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: Mealy fired her daughter and wrote an apology to the police.

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: She called her daughter's remarks distasteful, biased and hateful, and

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 1: she said the word police officers due is heroic and

12
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: that her daughter should never have linked her own personal

13
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: views to the business. Well, none of that stopped the storm.

14
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: Some of the comments posted by those offended by Sophie's

15
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: anti cops posts were just as adamant as Sophie's posting.

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: Exhausted by all of this, Ms Mealy announced the office

17
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: shop would be closing. Her business shutdown less than two

18
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: weeks after a hateful post appeared on social media, put

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: there by her own daughter. Now, I have a suggestion

20
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: for Sophie who is now looking for work you know.

21
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: Have you thought about calling the NFL Players Union. They

22
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: don't like the cops either. This could be a perfect

23
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: fit for you.
