A curious 4-year-old in Monroe, Conn., is going to have to get his doughnuts elsewhere after asking a Doughnut Inn customer the wrong question. Justin Otero's mother says the boy asked the customer if she had a baby in her belly and was told no. "My response was, 'Oh my goodness, I'm so embarrassed, I'm so sorry,'" the mom tells WFSB. But she says that while the customer was forgiving, managers refused to allow her in the store with her son, saying, "'He's not allowed in here, he's rude.'" The mom says she plans to get doughnuts somewhere else with her son, who "sort of" understands what happened but is still asking questions.

I guess the managers eyes glazed over.

Sink the Bismarcks, did she?

[driftdiver]

Heck I wouldn’t buy anything there. Guess all that store owner understands is cops.

No, its not a baby little fellow, its many visits to this stinking donut shop.

My guess is the boy will have donuts for life from a competitor.

I know we are a nation of half morons, but really? These "managers" are getting dumber and dumber. Thanks Public schools!

In the Name of Tolerance, we will be intolerant!

The young boy must learn never to ask whether a woman is pregnant unless and until you see the baby coming out.

If I ever find myself in Monroe, Conn., I’ll stay away from the Doughnut Inn.

Meanwhile, if a gaggle of feral blacks tore up the place late-night-Denny’s-style, they wouldn’t say a friggin’ word.

We'll find the German doughnut that's makin' such a fuss
We gotta dunk the Bismarck 'cause the world depends on us
Yeah hit the tables a runnin' boys and spin those cups around
'Cause when we hold the Bismarck we gotta dunk her down

So, you can deny someone service if you think they are “rude”, but not if you KNOW they are homosexual and they are demanding that you go against your personal conscience!

Welkom to Obama’s Amerika!

"The young boy must learn never to ask whether a woman is pregnant unless and until you see the baby coming out."

Imagine his shock if what came out was a huge doughnut.

[Enterprise]

So true. Ask about pregnancy and NO DOUGHNUT FOR YOU!

Art Linkletter made millions on his TV show, thanks to "curious children."

I took my 12 YO son and 3 1/2 YO grandson to Chick-Fil-A last week. While we're waiting in the drive-thru lane, my son asks me (out of the blue), "what does 'lustful' mean?" I tried to keep it simple, i.e. it's ok to look/glance at women, just don't stare.

Two seconds later, my grandson shouts out, "Oh, I get it now!"

[mmichaels1970]

Just say that the kid is autistic and watch the manager squirm.

I did this once, too, and I wasn’t four years old.

When I was about 8, I cringed when my five year old brother asked an elderly friend of my parents, “If you’re a lady, why do you have a beard?”

I wonder if a cop had asked her if she was pregnant if he would had been banned also.
