Let me guess. He dressed like a 1% biker and is pissed because he was treated like a 1% biker.

The manager, however, reportedly “said he can’t be expected to know” the difference between patches “so they just don’t allow any of them in the restaurant.” The veteran recounted his experience as evidence that the “world is full of idiots"

The manager hates. Was this a hate crime?

Huh. They wear green a lot too, and have funny hats. Always had my eye on those guys...

The "USMC" should have been a tipoff but in order to read it you have to know the alphabet all the way to the letter "U".

Would you want someone this stupid managing a business you owned?

Definitely a Charter Member of "The Red Diaper Baby Low-Info Idiots" ?

I’d boycott Pizza Slut, but I never eat there anyway.

“One patch says USMC, the other patch says Marine Combat Veteran, the 3rd patch is the unit patch for 3rd Marines 3rd Batallion and there is a patch of the US flag on it.”

Seems reasonably self explanatory. Difficult to confuse this with the Gangster Disciples, or some such ...

explaining he is a veteran and has “earned the right to wear them.”

Indeed he has.

And the owner, and the manager, of the store have the right to ask him to leave.

And the rest of us have the right to say that said owner and manager are a bunch of friggin' idiots. And the right to refrain from patronizing that establishment. And the right to publicize the facts.

Freedom of Speech, and Freedom of Association are great! The unnamed manager seems on track to find out that free people don't like his brand of idiocy.

"I decided to go to Pizza Hut for their lunch buffet..."

Doomed from the start.

Liberals hate these colors!

The Pizza Hut manager is most likely an Obama Boy!

Out of curiosity, I’d like to see a pic of the offending jacket just to be sure. It’ not impossible to think that he could actually look similar to local gang members when he walked in.

Regardless, after he had explained the colors and meaning, the manager could have shown true managerial leadership and apologized for the misunderstanding. Also, the restaurants rule is pretty stupid. Schools try to pull that crap sometimes and it just doesn’t work. You can’t tell an entire school they can’t wear blue or red and expect that to not cause problems.

It doesn't seem like he was kicked out, he could have taken the jacket off. While I don't agree with what happened I can understand how a business that has problems with such things would stick to the rule without exception for fear of being sued. If they start deciding what type of patch is OK and which is not-- there no doubt will be somebody that screams discrimination.

I would boycott Pizza Hut, except that Pizza Hut pizzas are crap that no one in his right mind would eat.

No more pizza hut for us. The manager needs to know who the good guys are or aren't if we are not there.

Email to pizza hut corporate from all vets might help our point some. This manager needs to go back to the washing dishes job until he figures out just who earned him his right to breath free air.

There’s at least three Pizza Huts in Green Bay. For some reason the phone numbers for all three, (920) 499-4554, (920) 468-4988 and (920) 432-8844 have been temporarily disconnected.

I wonder if junior has been told how much business his stupidity cost the franchise.

Manager must’ve been growing up when Military people were considered baby killers by the Democrats and not sources of votes.
