Sarah Sanders, press secretary to President Trump, was asked to leave the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington Virginia last night .

@NoFuxGiven I will never forget the time I dined at a restaurant in Montreal (which was half empty). The maitre'd refused service to a family of Vietnamese, based on their race, lying to them, saying that all the tables were reserved and that they needed a reservation. My family hadn't a reservation, and for the next hour, no one came in or sat at those empty tables. The photo you posted, above, is just the kind of discrimination we want to avoid in this country. You can't discriminate based on race, religion, sexual affiliation or political affiliation. People are granted asylum to this country for any of those three reasons.

@NoFuxGiven He should wear a t-shirt that says, [b][i]I’m stupid [/i][/b].

@MistyCee Yep. But here we are.

@SimplyTracie That was Karma. If a baker can refuse to make a gay cake, the restaurants can refuse to serve scumbags.

@hunkalove Yes, they do have that right. I’m not disagreeing with you. I just saying that I would serve her or any gay person.

I was simply sharing my opinions.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales Hopefully it ends with Trump, although I'm not hopeful.

@WoodyAq I guess for me there is a fork in the road. War? or reconciliation? Blowing apart bridges or building them?

We need to decide. We can't use the methods of war and reconciliation together.

@CopperCicada Any compromise that involves accepting the unacceptable wrt lies, treason and corruption is a nonstarter for me.

@WoodyAq I guess there is a difference between ordinary citizens and government policy/policy makers. And I guess there is a difference between compromise and reconciliation.

There is also full social and political war. That is an option.

@GingerPeach Some of the photos on this post drive home the truth of what you say.

@4meAndyou Yes they do.

@MarineBob [quote]Most places of business has a sign posted that says that they have the right to refuse service to anyone[/quote]

Yes, a lot do. They can post a sign that they'll only serve people who strip naked before entering, too.

My point is that just because they can post a sign doesn't make what is printed on that sign legal.

@beckyromero You go, girl.

@katielass Obviously deplorable money...LOL!!

@4meAndyou Well, the left might demonstrate an intolerance for historical figures who held the same views as everyone at that time they have not abandoned the almighty dollar.

@4meAndyou You may or may not be right on the smarter part. They certainly know more about the law. This wasn't a legal question though. It's whether it is smart to turn down business.

The poster said only a left-winger would be dumb enough. I was merely pointing out that his statement wasn't true.

@strongbow [quote]Only the left is dumb enough to turn down business from paying customers[/quote]


How are you with 'Christians' turning away cake business?

@HerKing The supreme court ruled that a baker can choose not to create art (as in cake decoration) for a marriage choice prohibited by his or her religion, as long as the baker in question has not refused to sell any of the other (not art related) products in his or her bakery to the same couple. I tend to respect the decisions of the supreme court.
