California chef won't serve customers wearing MAGA hats

[OnePercenter]

It appears that you are advocating for government force in some situations when you are sympathetic to the cause or beliefs of the person being excluded from services, but you're okay with government sitting on its ass in other situations.

I am within my right to refuse to serve fat people. But, fat black people are protected by government force.

Amazon sells a pink (!) baseball cap with the words printed on it TRUMP 2020. I'm seriously considering getting one and wearing it in public; remember, women get to wear hats inside, though men aren't supposed to. So I could wear it anywhere ----

What do people think of that? I can remember when people wore "I Like Ike" buttons in church. Political expression just was not viewed as a problem---it was considered mildly humorous. Now women get on TV and say a MAGA hat is "triggering," whatever that means. Upsetting, I guess. I wish I had a dollar for every time someone shocked or upset me by what they said or did; I'd be a rich lady. Now I guess people are supposed to walk on tiptoe, and in fact, that's what we're all doing. There are NO political bumper stickers anymore: at least not in Maryland, I can tell you. How much trouble will I get into if I wear my pink Trump hat? Might be fun to try it and see.

These days everybody is wound too tight. It's just like this Northam thing. Who cares really? I understand that Republicans are just trying to rub it in Democrats faces, but racism it's not.

Back in the 70's and 80's, we all made jokes about race and ethnicity. We all had a sense of humor at the time. It wasn't that offensive. But now they are bringing up something that happened 30 years ago when environment was not as tense, and judging it using todays values.

Look what liberalism has done to this country. You can't joke about anything, you can't laugh at everything, and you can't even wear a certain Fn hat if you desire. Liberalism is destroying this country.

Are you saying that hate speech was more social accepted in the 70's and 80's than it is today? Seems some of us have grown in those that didn't vote for the guy that condones grabbing women by the pussy and hiring illegal aliens.

Not at all, its just that people used to have a sense of humor. I lived back then, and the voice of my generation was Don Rickles. He would never be accepted today by millennials, that's probably why he keeled over dead in the prime of life.

It went on all the time. It was an ice breaker. Black guys would come back to work from a holiday and ask us if we had a "white" Christmas? I remember one place where I worked, two black girls worked in the shipping office upstairs. For Thanksgiving, our company bought us all frozen turkeys. So I seen one of the shipping girls outside making her way to the stairs with two turkeys. Of course I knew she was bringing one back for her coworker and friend. But just as a joke, I asked her how come she got two turkeys and I only got one? She smiled and said "because I'm black!"

Today you can't do any of those kinds of things.

Wow! Racism as an icebreaker, now I've heard it all.

If someone acts the fool in his early years, it has to be weighed with what he is able to bring to this country. So go ahead and fixate on what is in the past while I concentrate what he has brought to this country and continues to work for all of it's citizens, not just those who hav socialistic views.

tRump was a full blown CEO when he made his "Grab them by the pussy" disgusting comment.

I'm not aware that being against misogyny is socialist.

You object to somebody hiring illegal aliens but no objection to keeping them out with a wall. Hate speech was never acceptable, however if somebody did engage, it was their right to do so as an American.

I have no objection to a wall. As a matter of fact I even offered to be the general contractor. Of course to do it right it will cost an initial $1T and $500B/yr to maintain it. I even offered to pay a $1M fine if anyone was to breach said wall. Plus, unlike tRump, I will only hire citizens of the United States. No green cards, no H-1B's, No Bripats. What I think is stupid is people that believe that a wall will be the end all without enforcing existing laws like Obama did.

At one time nobody considered that racism..........then the snowflakes (like they always do) started to melt because their feelings were hurt. They turned everything into racism. In fact I was watching Laura's show last night, and she highlighted some of the stupidity. Nike came out with an all white shoe of some kind, and took it off the market because it was all white and inappropriate for Black History month.

Now even shoes are racist thanks to the left. Perhaps Alexandria Kotex will introduce a bill to hire thought police; right up your alley on the left.

I don't mind that as much as being required to do guard duty as a kotex. It's not bad except for those 5 days a month. (hiding under bed)

And the case in point is a baker who serves gay customers.

No. Your "what ifs" are hypothetical and not related to the chef in any way.

It's not a hypothetical that the baker serves gay customers. It's also not a hypothetical that the chef stated he would not serve anyone who displayed a message he did not like. Nor is it a hypothetical that the baker did not want to be forced to write a message he did not like. It is not a hypothetical that accommodation laws that do not include everyone put the government in the position of picking winners and losers.

The only hypothetical is the very intriguing and illuminating one in which a straight person orders a cake for a gay "wedding", which destroys the myth that the baker doesn't serve gay customers.

This is hypothetical, dope.

Really? Are you convinced that had a straight relative of one of the gay men ordered the cake and told the baker it was for a gay "wedding" that he would have been fine baking it? Not likely. Thus, your complaint that he was targeting gay customers is falsified, especially as there is no evidence he refused gay customers ordering things other than "wedding" cakes.

Which is what I said. Reading comprehension problem?

Yes. This is what you said. A hypothetical.

"Are you convinced that had a straight relative of one of the gay men ordered the cake and told the baker it was for a gay "wedding" that he would have been fine baking it? Not likely."

o, that’s not what he said at all. Dude, wtf . Knock knock anyone home?

San Mateo restaurant owner says customers will not be served if they are wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat.

Kenji Lopez-Alt of Wursthall Restaurant tweeted that it would be the "same as if you come in wearing a swastika, white hood, or any other symbol of intolerance and hate."

The tweet has gotten mixed reactions. Some people say refusing to get to know someone or serve someone based on what they're wearing is unfair. Other replies on Twitter support the chef and say they're now more likely to go to the restaurant.

Restaurant owner won't serve customers wearing MAGA hats

If bakeries can refuse to serve LGBTQ customers - why can't this restaurant refuse to serve racists? Sounds reasonable to me. What do you think?

Mods: I tried to do a search but couldn't find an existing thread. I apologize if I have duplicated.

/——/ Reminds me of when democrat restaurant owners wouldn’t serve Blacks.

Yeah, and then those Democrats switched to Republicans.

Lies, sweet sounding lie are all you have. What a little punk bitch.

What lies?

The fake Indian is the biggest racist on the forum. A hat encouraging people to make America great is only racist to the dumbest 1%.

Speaking of dumbest, this article has turned out to be untrue. It never happened. It was another fabrication to stir your fire in your belly. It didn't do a thing to mine since I already knew it was reported in the Denver Post as fabricated. And the Denver Post isn't exactly a left wing rag.

Damn, you Orange Trumpets are easy.
