Amongst this public outlash, one voice of reason stood out. It was Officer Baker himself. He released a statement saying that he was not in support of this “cancel culture” and all the hate that is going around.
He discouraged people from committing crimes against the diner and discouraged boycotting the business. “The actions of a few do not equate to the actions of many,” Baker said, encouraging the people in his town to take the high road.
