If the thing you’re asking me to tolerate is stealing children from their parents, then yeah, you can call me intolerant. I’ve never knowingly dined with children-stealers and don’t feel like starting any time soon. You checked that new Gallup poll? This might not be the hill to die on, but if you want it to be, fine.
Actually the GOP in Virginia is pretty much dead already…
So, I guess a business can refused to provide a service to somebody for ethical reasons only if they are ethical reasons that the Virginia GOP agrees with. Do you even think they recognize their own hypocrisy?
This should work about as well as “Freedom Fries”. In a majority blue part of a “purple” state, they should see an increase in business.
From the republican point of view, it is fine and good to separate children from parents, lose both in the system, then try to extort voluntary deportations based on false promises to reunite families. However, the indignation meter hits the top of the scale if someone insults one of the nations most prolific and public liars by refusing them service.
Guess I’ve been doing this all wrong – been boycotting the Red Elephant for decades.
Whatever happened to - crocodile tears, more in sorrow than in anger, passive-aggressive shaming?
No, I’m not mad. I’m just disappointed. I thought you were better than that.
It worked for my mom. I’m sure there is some Public Relations equivalent.
Discussion about civility on MSMBC
Dem spoof just called out Trump for insulting John McCain
Good one!!!
Tolerate is a transitive verb.
Dee and Derp Plurabelle wouldn’t have ever “done et” at that place anyhow.
A 26-seat restaurant can survive a “boycott.” Rather, I fear Trump-crazed cultists might try a Crystal Night at the Red Hen.
“You don’t need to win plurality national support to profitably operate a small entity in Lexington, Virginia. You only need an extremely tiny percentage of the public to support you. Whether the remainder of the public is indifferent or hostile to the prospect of ordering a $25 Shenandoah Lamb Co. braised leg of lamb with harissa-spiced Wades Mill Polenta and a side of Fennel & Dill Salad matters not at all.”
(I see their website now has been hacked)
Who wants to bet that restaurant is packed to the rafters tonight ?
No tolerance for the Intolerant.
I imagine the restaurant staff will be fine with not serving, the owner will be fine with not seating, and the other patrons will be fine with not dining with anyone who supports Trump and the Republican enablers, abettors and co-conspirators.
…and we’re off. Butthurt Republicans calling for civility are acting uncivilized?
They have 97 signatures at this point…the entire Republican Party in Virginia.
This is the dumbest fucking news cycle. May we have a new one?
Lovely, then everyone else is assured a great meal and good company.
Turds in the septic tank want everyone to boycott the washing machine.
