Lexington VA Restaraunt Welcomes Trump Supporters - THE NC Herd Fan - 06-23-2018 12:56 PM
Well, not really, BUT I do encourage Trump supporters that may be passing though the Lexington VA area to visit the Red Hen restaurant and wear a Make America Great Hat or T-Shirt.
Quote:White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said she was kicked out of a Virginia restaurant by its owner because she works for President Donald Trump.
"Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left," Sanders posted on Twitter Saturday.
Red Hen wants customers to wear Make America Great apparel to their establishment

When the City of Lexington, or the state of Virginia, fines the restaurant and tries to put her out of business, you will have a comparable situation.
The Red Hen restaurant has a legal right to refuse service.
They also, in my opinion, are an embarrassment to my home state. I hope that this restaurant fails, and the owners are forced into bankruptcy. Just so long as it is a market result of her mean and uncalled-for behavior, and not due to gov't force.

Could not have said it better.
I believe an individual has the right to run their business based on their beliefs and business model. The public will decide if the business will be successful. As for myself, I would never darken the door of the Red Hen, and hope their business fails. Hope they don't plan on expanding into Texas.

Why dont you try to actually read what the ruling was instead of letting someone else tell you. Tell you incorrectly at that.
Think for yourself and if you are, then stop being a f'ing idiot.

I was really surprised that Lexington is the most Liberal VA town west of Charlottesville. The HOME of VMI (the last ALL MALE military school), There was also once a lot of tobacco farms in this part of the state. Demographics like that are not usually associated with liberalism. Trump got 61% of Rockbridge county vote the county Lexington is in, while Hillary got 61% of the vote in Lexington.

THIS^^^^^
An owner should have freedom from government interference in who he chooses to serve. However, you should have no protection from the free market reaction to your business decisions. Frankly---Im absolutely shocked that any owner would make his politics known in a nation thats pretty much split 50/50. Why alienate 50% of your clientele? You have to be a special kind of stupid to make that business decision.

Haters got to hate. The libs here will say that the restaurant owner, "gets it".
RE: Lexington VA Restaraunt Welcomes Trump Supporters - Kronke - 06-23-2018 08:38 PM
Red Hen is top trending on twitter, because the alt-left is rallying behind how "brave" and "virtuous" it is to not serve someone for the job they perform. Some of the most cringeworthy takes I've ever seen. You people are certifiable.

Relax Sarah.......
They thought you were a lesbian...........
RE: Lexington VA Restaraunt Welcomes Trump Supporters - Dasville - 06-23-2018 09:42 PM
Everyone has a “spark of Divinity” accept a President Trump supporter?
I wonder if the Owner would have served Sarah’s kids if they came in by themselves? If they were separated, would she have served the kids?

Liberals have clearly lost their collective minds.
