You can discriminate, and you can be discriminated against.

Colbert and the other idiot comedians think this action was ok.

Can you imagine what would have happened, if Valerie Jarrett, or any Obamabot, had been kicked out of a restaurant????? Let’s get real I think we all.know what the reaction would have been.

[savedbygrace]

Except that’s not what happened. The owner asked her staff if they wanted her to kick Sarah out and only after they told her to kick her out did she do it.

That is not a measure of a strongly held political stance.

“The owner had consulted with employees, who said Ms. Sanders made them feel uncomfortable.”

Which is why they followed her party to the next restaurant and continued to harass them. Yeah, that’s the ticket! (Jon Lovett)

I’m all for the pink-hatters publicly shaming conservatives.

Payback will come next November.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is my local leftie rag so I won’t even dignify their right to frame the narrative by clicking that link.

The staff are learning that the free market decides.

An act of hate, but should be no LEGAL repercussions. Publicity wise is another story. I haven't been in Lexington VA in at least 15 years, and may never go there again, but if I do I won't darken the door of that restaurant - providing it's still I business. From what I read about it other then the exercise of snowflake hate, I probably wouldn't have eaten there anyway.

[Cincinnatus.45-70]

I’m still confused. If I understand the Democrats’ “Red Hen Doctrine,” if I own a restaurant it’s OK for me to refuse service to an employee of a Democrat politician. And I can chase the person or their dinner party down the street.

So does that mean I can use a fire hose to get them out of my front door, and then use dogs on leashes to chase them? I thought that was something that was not allowed?

That all sounds bad to me. Democrats have gotten me so confused!

[New Perspective]

Disagree with a liberal who has the power of the law and watch how fast the nanny agencies are contacting you. Just look at Joe The Plumber vs Candidate obama for reference.

[RetiredTexasVet]

I’m sure that the Red Hen can survive on politically correct Progressive customers. /s/

[RetiredTexasVet]

Any business owner who would do such a thing must be a fool.

[randita]

Personally, I think it was short sighted and rude for the Red Hen to refuse service to Sanders and her family, but not illegal.

Personally also, I would not want to eat at a restaurant that didn’t want to serve me. Anyone who handles the food you ordered could taint it.

The owner had consulted with employees, who said Ms. Sanders made them feel uncomfortable.

And they claim that the label "Snowflake" is bad for their mental health....
