Then why dont these triggered snowflakes go somewhere else?

Because they probably don't go out, anywhere, ever, and resent that other people do. So much of the left's happiness comes only from being unhappy. Being outraged over something, anything, gives them a sense of purpose. A role in something meaningful, even if fictional, beats a reality of an inconsequential life, devoid of joy.

Plus, some people are just jerks.

Hipsters wear Timberlands with skinny jeans.

Seems to me the list isn’t racist, it just doesn’t want hipsters or gangsters as clientele.

I'm in southern Arizona. I sometimes put a long sleeve shirt over my T-shirt to go to town. Usually to help conceal my revolver.

But then, most of my town trips are to places like WalMart or to grab a gallon of milk. Eating out means McDonalds or Burger Sling. And in the heat of a southern Arizona day - I'm almost never out after dark - no one worries about my thick cowboy boots, jeans or white T-shirt.

But in the article, it is for an eating place in NY after 8PM (which is darn close to my bedtime!) and I find the restrictions totally understandable.

There’s a black bar on the west side of Rochester named P.I.’s Lounge. They have the same sign posted.

I had a bar that I frequented throughout the years, and I also rode in on my motorcycle for many of those years.

I was turned away because of a similar dress code: No colors, no leathers, etc etc”

My leather was my motorcycle jacket. They demanded that I leave it outside. a $600 armored jacket just sitting on my bike. Sure.

I learned to love another place.

During the work week, I always wear long-sleeve shirts, even though it is hot in Houston. I always wear long-sleeved shirts to church or to a restaurant. On the weekends, I wear short-sleeved shirts, but with the shirt tail out also to help conceal my revolver. I'm thinking of trying some of those shirts with tails made to be worn out.

There is a bar like this in San Antonio. One day I went in for a beer and asked the owner why that sign is on the door. He said his insurance rates went up because of a recent fight. The rules of the house are a mitigation plan for the risk.

The ripped jeans apply to middle class, white young women——all the rage——they BUY them that way.

True! Diverse discrimination!

Oh what we used to call a “Gentleman’s Dress Code” sans gentle request to wear a tie. Of course one didn’t have to spell it out, but times change and ignorance grows.

No camo in a bar in the SE US would mean its an empty business.

How can those rules be considered “racist”? It states right there it is no bar for white people. Plain written.

“NO WHITETEES.” He can’t spell either. It should be “Whities”.

BTW, keep in mind that calling you "racist" is not just a judgment on you. It is also a virtue signalling declaration for themselves (i.e. they are taking the opportunity to show the world how wonderfully virtuous they are by not being "racist". I'll bet it feels really good).

A snippet from an excellent post titled "A World Without Consequences":
"It’s monkey see, monkey do, as the Judeo-Puritan ruling class signals to one another their piety and then reacts to those signals with their own acts of piety. They are like lightning bugs on a summer evening."

Lots of clubs did this in the 80’s.

Especially the flat brim hats. One of the stupidest fads I’ve ever seen in my life, especially when they wear it over their ears.

No work boots!?

Guess our crew is skipping lunch there. But in the summer we usually smell bad by lunchtime anyway so we try to avoid indoor places.
