"Sounds yummy...mmm...mmm...mmm."

This manager needs to be fired - yesterday. I’ll call Chili’s headquarters on Monday and express my views.
He believes...but isn't sure. Of course, no proof means that the media will print it any ways.
Of course he just had to believe it was a Trump supporter that started it all.
I find that very hard to believe.
His dog was named Barack.
Possibly more to this than what the reporting shows since it seems like it would be easier to have just let him have the meal and get him out the door. But I’m probably reacting to the fact that he’s hired an attorney. Which seems a bit much.
"Sounds yummy...mmm...mmm...mmm."
Look! The #NeverTrumper is posting trash trying to denigrate Trump supporters again!
Lol, thats why they really took his meal away, he had the audacity to name a dog after the president.
The man wearing the Trump sticker seems to be the focus of this story.
He admits in the article that he left off his name & rank markins so as not to be mistaken for active duty, & apparently he was wearing his cover indoors (or cap - however the Army refers to it).
So here we have an issue of a guy making a stolen-valor uniform lapse. He’s a real soldier, but the lapse in uniform standards probably caught the eyes of a bunch of veterans. Maybe one spoke up, maybe not.
But once he proved his veracity - full stop, end of story. Or should have been.
My better half & I went out to Applebee’s for the veterans’ meal Friday night. I appreciated that because otherwise we could not have gone out. Yes, they checked our VA cards for proof first. We were fine with that.
Pays to read the article before posting
FROM FOX 4 Dallas:
[He believes it was another customer, an elderly white man, also a veteran, who doubted him.
“He said, ‘Well, I was in World War II in Germany and they didn’t have any blacks over there then.’ He’s an older guy so I let that stuff go,” said Walker.
Moments later was the confrontation with the manager.
“He says that we have guests that say you are not a legitimate military veteran,” said Walker.
Walker says the man who approached him first was wearing a Donald Trump campaign sticker. He feels it is no coincidence it happened days after Trump’s election.
“I believe if it wasn’t for the temperature of America right now, I believe that man would have never reacted that way, because I think he’s probably a good person,” said Walker.
Walker’s attorney, Kim Cole, says she is meeting with Chili’s general counsel Monday, and one of the company’s attorneys has apologized.
“She felt really bad that Mr. Walker had this experience,” said Cole.
Walker says he plans to file assault charges against the manager and says that manager needs to get some sensitivity training.]
The FOX4 video of Mr. Walker shows he’s African American.
This reminds me of the “Clock Boy” shakedown.

WHy does he need an attorney?
Because he couldn’t take home the remains of his completely free meal?
If Obama had an older brother in Dallas, it would be Walker!
If it’s important that he actually be a veteran, why didn’t they ask for his ID before he ordered the meal. And if it’s not important enough to card him before he orders, why not just let him take the meal.
It sounds like everyone overreacted, including the subject of the article. What sort of lawyer would take such a flimsy case? Probably an Ambulance Chaser.
+10 points for naming your dog Barack. Apologies to canine.
Sorry, there’s more to this than being reported.
Too many facts don’t check out.
I think this was another Obama follower trying to do an anti-Trump demonstration.
He might be a legit veteran, but we need to check more than what’s in this story.
