'Hell No!' Cashier refuses to serve Trump backers
Fox News.com ^ | June 17, 2016 | Todd Starnes

Shannon Riggs and her cousins were famished after attending a Donald Trump rally last week in Richmond, Va., so they decided to drop by Cook Out – a regional restaurant chain known for its tasty burgers.

The group was decked out in Trump swag – from T-shirts to those iconic red hats emblazoned with the campaign’s slogan: “Make America Great Again.”

But apparently the cashier at the Cook Out in Colonial Heights does not believe Trump can make America great again. Nor do they believe his supporters deserve to eat Cook Out hamburgers.

Riggs explained what happened during the June 10 incident to television station WTVR.

“As soon as we got to the window, someone inside said ‘Hell no! I’m not serving them,’” she recounted.

The people on the left are bigots.

Political bigots.

How dare they be denied service based simply on their political orientation.

If instead the customers had been gay, rest assured this entire chain would be sued into Oblivion.

Further, every major Network would lead with this incident and they wouldn’t shut up about it.

This dumb kid would do well to leave the entire incident OFF her resume.

I have no problem with that....just as I’d have no problem if it was Hillary supporters who were denied service.Or if it was a bakery who refused to bake a cake for a pervert “wedding”.

It’s good to see at least the shoe can be on the other foot and that Christians CAN be offended too

Employee was fired for rudeness not for political bigotry.

You’re a bigot for saying they’re bigots. Very confusing.

Yes, I read the article and with comprehension.

What’s your point?

I made a comment about ‘the people on the left.’

I had take out from this place a few times. I think Scriptures or Bible verses are on the side of the bags.

Delicious burgers. I wouldn't trust the "secret sauce" if I had on a Trump hat.

It will be prominently displayed.

Trust me, she regards this as a point of honor.

I'd even bet her grandkids will become sick and tired of hearing the story...

Denying an ambulance ride due to race,gender,"sexual orientation" or political affiliation is one thing...denying a sandwich (or a wedding cake) is something entirely different.
