“terrible service…the owner is trash and does not defend women’s rights. we saw him spit on a customer’s food and he has cockroaches,” wrote another. “as we were leaving we saw some rats playing craps by the front door but honestly the rats were great so if you pass by tell them we said it was ok.”
Some of the comments also racially targeted the brewer.
“food is always cold. coffee is never fresh. customer service is horrible. the place along with the owner just sucks,” one reviewer wrote. “wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone and pray it closes. complete waste of space. -192765782 out of 10. and the owner can go straight to hell. i want to be uncle tom a-ni-a. and i said what i said” .

However, the Richmond coffee shop owner was undeterred by “online bullying” and said the people doing it were trying to silence him because he “doesn’t have the same opinions as everyone else.” /p>
“the wildest part of all this is that the majority of these people, and I’m assuming that’s the majority because apparently there’s about 70% of the population who believe what I believe, you know, there should be a line drawn somewhere before that second quarter,” brewer said.
The Virginia businessman said he doesn’t “ascribe” to the ideology that says he can’t have an opinion on abortion as a man, declaring he has “an opinion” and “a voice” that he intends to use.

brewer, who worked in financial services for a decade before becoming a business owner with his coffee shop, added that standing up for his beliefs is a lesson in “leading by example” for his son.
The businessman, who is black, also said that if he thinks “a lot of us are being killed by these procedures,” then he has the right to speak up if he thinks it’s wrong.
“but this whole idea of mixing because the owner of this particular business has to believe everything i believe or i will buy with them,” said brewer. “That’s not the proper way to handle things.”
In addition, Brewer said his pro-life views were a recent development after questioning the pro-choice views he grew up with. it also consumes news from media across the political spectrum.
brewer said his business is involved in uplifting the community, hiring felons and providing a performance space for local artists. her business is also involved with the local school district.
However, since your post about roe, all the artists scheduled to perform there have dropped out. Brewer learned of the cancellations through flyers posted around town.

brewer said he was concerned that other pro-life businesses would be targeted like his because he believes “that’s what’s done now” and that the people who do it “find value” in having “nothing better to do than bring down another business.”
The coffee shop owner went on to say that the online mob thinks it’s “irrelevant” that the brewery’s business helped drive “economic improvement” in his neighborhood, commenting that it’s probably easier for the mob to destroy a different business not so involved in their community.
“If it’s that easy to bring me down, then it must be twice as easy to bring down another business that isn’t as involved in the community,” said Brewer. “if you can conclude that ajay brewer hates women because he wants to put the [abortion] decision back in the hands of the states so there are no abortions anywhere, anytime, for any reason, then you can easily do it to a business that’s just there to make a profit.”
brewer commented that if it weren’t for his family and other businesses associated with him, he would be doubling his views online, noting the “threats” and one-star reviews that are already taking a toll on his father’s business, tony’s grill .

He also expressed concern about people not critically reading the information they consume.
the virginia businessman said there is “no way to identify it as the truth” when people “do not pay attention to the news” and form their opinions based on headlines and online posts from friends, celebrities and politicians those who follow.
He also commented that those headlines and posts are “all based on progressive ideologies reaching the mainstream” and that people who share ideologies “admire” and follow the politicians and businessmen who promote them.

The fact that the brewery business is targeting him for expressing his pro-life views comes as liberals online are furious over the repeal of Roe v. wade, which returns the abortion issue to state legislatures.
