Yeah, this food truck owner would be the FIRST person to complain if she needed the police and the police refused to offer assistance. Luckily, the police would still help, even if it meant helping an idiot.

Just like the guy who didn't want to bake a gay cake, this woman (as a private business owner) should be able to choose who she wants/doesn't want to serve.

If there are business repercussions to her decision she has nobody else to blame but herself. I don't want to hear any pissing and moaning now if something happens to her as a result of her decision. You reap what you sow.....

I agree; however, you and I both know if she needed the cops and they refused, the MSM would destroy those cops.

That being said, while I don't support his stance, I can still respect and fight for her right to do it. But to pretend that police officers, like all professions, don't have bad actors is just ridiculous.

Pretty sure no one is saying that here.

On top of no one saying that, you're equating a few "bad actors" to everyone in that profession.

Ridiculous. I never said that every cop is a bad actor. You're the ones who seem to be implying that every cop is the salt of the earth by being up in arms by one moronic decision by one business owner.

And that, my friend, is called..........

The Double Standard

For the record I suspect the Police would be the bigger person here and do their job; however, I also suspect that this person (if it comes to something like that) would be a martyr and specifically NOT call the police, then immediately claim they did not help her just to be a nudnick.

How can you tell with vegans?

"Vegan food truck"...
"refuses to serve cops"...

Sounds like she is doing them a favor.

I don't think the cops would refuse to come to her aid, anyway they shouldn't. What I would see is like a friend of mine who got a nagging from his wife and he said, "but I got even with her". I asked him what'd he did? He tells me, "I washed the dishes really slow." LOL

That's how they'll respond, "really slow."

i'd say it's pretty safe to say that cops don't order from vegan food trucks. if you do find a cop in line behind you, skate. f word hippie. a couple guys tried to start a vegan restaurant off the main drag of my hood but they didn't have the funds. the only vegan restaurant i want in the backwoods of my holler is of the hare krishna type
