I have no problem with making muslims uncomfortable living here any more than I would making communists, nazis or any other kind of subversive traitor uncomfortable living here.

They are a clear & present danger to our way of life and as soon as they succeed in using our civil liberties to gain what they want will yank them away & enslave us all.

I don’t know any Americans who go around wearing that crap.

If you want to be an American you need to accept our norms.

Otherwise go home.

If she was going to drive off, why would she even talk to the attendant with $20 in her hand?

What a jerk. Why does he have to see her if she’s paying in cash?

Haven't you heard of zero tolerance? It's all the rage in the schools now.

IMOP the cop should have ticketed the Muslim for endangering the general public by driving wearing a costume which restricted her view of the road. Then he should have had her car towed for the same reason. Then he should have explained to her that, unlike her native hell hole, this is a free country .... including the freedom to leave if you don’t like it.

This is part of an agitation operation, and it's nationwide. Here in my area: Muslim protest at Tarrant County College, U.S. as Christian nation,

Similar stories can be found all over. It's a soft tyranny-- this victimization game, and unfortunately, their targets seem to rollover, comply. It's a variation of the race card play.

Wakeup, people.

My guess is the cashier is a pakistani or syrian, etc expat who knows what its like to live as a non-muslim under the jackboot of this woman’s death cult.

What are you smoking? How does a store clerk know “in advance” the intent of someone who enters the store with their face covered over? When a judge decides that private businesses have the obligation to serve anyone with a face covering you are going to see a lot more robberies because now the crooks will dress like Muslims to gain entry to a business without being suspected of intending foul play. And the cameras will not be able to see their faces. And you will not be permitted to regard them with suspicion until it is too late. Should the store clerk have to wait until the person with the face covering pulls a weapon out before stating that the person will not be served? What this all amounts to is a constant erosion in private property rights. More and more businesses and individuals are being prosecuted for exercising their Constitutional rights to make their own decisions as to who or what they choose to associate with on their own property. Now the government and the law enforcement community under the guise of preventing discrimination (yeah we are human beings and are the only species on the planet that has the ability to discriminate and there is a reason for that) can barge into your home or business and make you act a certain way.

No shirt, NO shoes, NO veils, NO SERVICE!

*************

I’ve seen a store with a similar sign that read:

No shirt, NO shoes, NO SERVICE!

LADIES, NO Charge

I was in a gas station in Northern Louisiana, it had a sign “no hoodies”.

I’ve seen plenty “no shirt, no shoes, no service”

And I’ve seen signs we have the right to refuse service to anyone.

So what’s the big deal here, it was explained that for security purposes she had to reveal her face. I’ve seen attempted lawsuits to wear their headdress on driver’s license pictures, sheesh.

Actually I don’t have a problem with this. A business owner should be able to refuse service to anyone for any reason short of a life and death situation.

This is one of those things that grew out of the civil rights era that might have had its place at one time but it needs to go. If a racist restaurant owner wants to refuse business to blacks, so be it. I suspect the market will correct him into bankruptcy.

I'm gonna have to side with the clerk on this one. Had her boss reviewed the security tape, she would've been canned on not following company policy. I've worked in customer service and if you DON'T follow any policy the company deems necessary, you're out. Being fired is a whole lot worse than "offending" someone.

ROP aside, what if this would've been a bank? Mask = potential robber.

'. . .would not serve 'people like me'- or people wearing face coverings - aka 'masks' by corporate policy.

She should get a credit card; and use it at pump. Surely she has one. (Perhaps she was looking for an incident?)

As to what was problem; given Officer showed up? Policy. Going to call police every time this driver pulls in here?

As a customer; If I were inside this station; I would be inclined to want to get the heck out of there; if saw someone wearing a burqua approaching the cashier.

Good idea; perhaps; for people with face coverings; change their MO's per 'filling up'. Gas stations are of course; No.1 targets of perps. And they are creative.

All to say; I am not sympathetic with 'victim'.

And this woman; not 'sympathetic' per situation; either.

" following publicly posted instructions to ask customers to remove masks or other facial coverings for security camera purposes.

What is it about publicly posted instructions you don't understand? If the police had NO PROBLEM with it, then it was perfectly within the cashier's right AND her job description to follow company policy and procedure...with which the law enforcement people obviously agreed or they would have done more than simply walk away.

"They are refusing to give her gas because of her religion."

No your honor, it's just that she was scaring all the other customers.
