Easiest. Boycott. Ever.
Update from his Facebook page:
Ok, most of you following me and what happened this week here is the deal. No need to boycott Pizza Hut as it is not a company policy, it never was a company policy and they do hire people, pay wages and do good things in the community Earlier this week before I had my confrontation a group of gang banger wanna be’s did go into the Pizza Hut and caused problems. One of the guys had a Field Jacket that had patches and stuff on it and he was the main instigator of trouble. The young manager was trying to be proactive when I came in and avoid a similar problem which is why he confronted me. The manager didn’t think you could go and buy a military jacket and spice it up with all of the patches.
If you want to be mad, be mad at young punks who dress in military attire and do not show the uniform or colors the respect it deserves. Be mad at posers who never earned the uniform, ribbons or badges that live off of the honor of our veterans. Be mad at celebrities who wear our uniforms ike costumes to the award shows, be mad at the schools that don’t teach our youth what the uniforms mean....there are plenty of things to be mad at but Pizza Hut......hell there are bigger fish to fry than over zealous managers.
Wisconsin ... democrat state ... what did he expect?
hell, I’d be surprised if the stoned out morons didn’t spit in his food if they found out he was military
best solution: move out of the commie states and let them starve. the only real power we have is our wallet... which is controlled by where our feet are planted
This manager is a total idiot. I hope he loses his job and suffers.
Ok. I’ve been meaning to start a thread on this, but maybe a post here will do.
I stopped by my local Pizza Hut (here in central Indiana) last year for a quick carry out, and put it on my debit card.
I was looking at my bank statement and noticed a charge to LA RAZA Pizza Hut.
So, the next time I drove by the place, I stopped at the drive-through and asked to talk to the manager. The twenty something lunkhead informed me he was the manager. I asked him if this franchise was really LA RAZA Pizza Hut, and he replied it was, and gave me a business card. I asked him if he knew what LA RAZA meant and he said, “it means the family”. I asked him how he came up with that meaning and the said the owners told him that is the translation of the term.
I explained to him LA RAZA quite literally means “the race” and is the mexican equivalent of the KKK, bent on the reconquest of the southwestern United States through illegal immigration. That earned me a blank gaze from the young man, as though I were explaining quarks. I suggested he google the term and left it at that.
Researching LA RAZA Pizza Hut on the internet, I found it is indeed a franchisee with more than 40 stores in New Mexico and......wait for it....Indiana! (As an aside I knew we had a large illegal population, just by going to wal-mart and driving by roofing projects.)
I’m one of those people who vote with their dollar, as opposed to boycotting.
I don’t spend my money on Progressive Insurance, or say a JJ’s Rainbow Coalition Hamburger stand.
I think it’s wonderful people can legally immigrate to our country and attain success in the capitalist system. I don’t understand, though, how they can then try to undercut, or support groups undermining the system that made our country so desirable, that they wanted to come here in the first place.
Holy crap this is right in my city!
All patches are not created equal.
WONDERFUL-—
A MANAGER of a pizza shop that cannot READ 4 patches!!!!
I am vindicated again in the thinking that I am very glad I got my education in Wisconsin between 1945 and 1957. I left there in 1964 & I won’t move back.
The current crop on UNION teachers there have failed miserably if a person who is considered ‘manager material’ is inable to read a military patch & not realize that it actually MIGHT be OUR military!!!
As they say, you can't fix stupid, but you sure can fire stupid so he will be someone else problem.

Active Duty/Retiree ping.
I ate at a Pizza Hut once.....ONCE.
frigging disgusting
The vet should have stayed, particularly if the manager threatened to call the police. My answer would be, “Yes, by all means, please call the police. Do it now!”. Most managers would back down, fearful of bad publicity.
A Chinese restaurant I used to frequent for years suddenly and quietly began adding gratuity charges to the ticket. I prefer to decide what tip I shall pay. There was no indication anywhere until I ate and received the ticket. I called a waitress to explain the unexpected charge. She did, and I refused to pay it. She said, “You have to!” and I replied, “Oh, no, I don’t”. She threatened to call the manager and I smiled and said, “Would you please?”. The manager replayed the same spiel and I refused. He threatened to call the police and I said politely smiling, “Would you please? I will be glad to wait”. People nearby were starting to look around. The nervous manager backed down. Then I asked, “Shall I take my business elsewhere?” and he replied, “No, please come again”.
