I support the restaurant owner deciding who she will serve, or not serve. I also support the right to comment, and/or protest her actions in a non-violent, and non threatening manner.
This is the correct answer!
Y'all do understand that the manager not only refused service, but then
followed the family outside continuing to rant and rave while they
were headed for another restaurant. Organizing others along the way.
They should have just knocked the fuckin' bitch out.
I haven't seen anything about ranting and raving. Link please, or it didn't happen. And I stand ready to apologize if what you say is true.
Did the Red Hen owner organize and follow the Sanders group over to the other restaurant? Somebody did, maybe an employee or supervisor from the Red Hen, but the owner didn't come across to me as a person who would do that. I like Mike Huckabee, but I'm not sure he would know if Wilkinson (RH owner) was actually involved in that part of this crap. In this day and age, one expects to see footage of everything, so where's the video of the ranting and raving?
The owner didn't follow her...the manager did. But the owner is the head
of the Lexington, VA Restaurant Association or some group like that. (Not
sure of the exact name).
Those people are getting negative feedback. When other Managers of
other restaurants on that strip were asked to comment they all replied
"No Comment." If they didn't see anything it would have been easy to
reply..."I didn't see anything."
Demographics play a role in all of this. Hillary Clinton won Lexington, VA
by 61-35 something like that...but Trump won the county that Lexington
is in by roughly the same margin 61-37. Lexington, VA is not big enough
itself to support all those Bistro's they have. They need folks from the County.
One thing was good though. The owner had window washers out there
cleaning up after the tweet by the Prez. Now he needs to get somebody
out there to clean the canvas awning. That baby is in bad shape.
Not surprised it was the manager instead of the owner, who came across to me as not that much of a confrontational person. That manager apparently is though, and I wouldn't be surprised if he/she doesn't ultimately cost that restaurant big time, if not close it down.
