Actually I can’t say I blame them. It shows what hypocrites they are, but I can’t say I blame them. It would make me wonder if they guy was there to stir up trouble so I think they have the right to exclude anyone they want.

Bet you money they wouldn’t give me the same consideration.

Regardless to his taste in apparel, I think the young man should just count his blessings.
