Nope.The Commie Chicken sure showed us, didn't they?
Who does the author expect to be civil and not personalize the issues? Certainly not the Left, they have been uncivil for years. It’s an Alinsky thing.
The author seems to be upset that victims of the left are turning their own tactics back on them. I wonder why he is just noticing that now?
He sounds more like the family of a two-time felon who is killed during a home invasion, complaining that their son/cousin/brother should not have been shot.
Unfortunately, sometimes what goes around, comes around.
There is a huge difference between the Christian baker and the Commie at the Little Red Hen.
Both refused service because of their principles. The difference is the Christian was willing to sell the gay couple a loaf of bread just not participate in their ceremony.
The Commie at the Little Red Hen would not even sell Sarah a loaf of bread.
That is a huge difference.
They're probably sitting around constructing lies about how THEY'RE the victims. That's the ‘go to’ excuse for liberals liars and losers.
Hoping they go out of business. Then they can go on welfare and enjoy the benefits of the socialism they love so much.

The above is the original posting of this article. The one you posted is a copy from later
I’ve noticed that liberals always start whining about tolerance and civility when their own nasty, filthy behavior blows back on them.
In the eight years of The Manchurian president I do not recall one single reported incident of conservatives harassing members of his cabinet in their own homes. I don’t recall restaurants chucking them out. I don’t recall any reports of people harassing them in restaurants. I don’t recall Republican Congressman getting up on a podium and inciting violence against them.
so this whiny little hypocrite can take his calls for civility and deposit them where the sun don’t shine.
50 years taking nasty crap from these people is more than enough.
I went to the site and read some of his other "works". This guy is a leftist shill. A real Bernie Bro but with a soft "Walk quietly into the shower room so as to not disturb the others" demeanor.
This is a good lesson for other restaurant owners & all businesses that cater to the general public. You can decide whom you want to serve & whomever you do not want to serve, however, be prepared for the consequences.
It wasn’t the Conservative movement that started the harassment & the never ending faux outrage.
It was not the Conservatives that attempts to keep Chik-fil-a out of a local market simply because the founder holds legitimate beliefs about marriage held throughout the entirety of history.
It is not the Conservatives that attack and threaten members of the opposite political party when they are at dinner or simply in public.
It is not Conservatives picketing & harassing members of the opposite party at their homes and posting were their children go to school, threatening them with kidnapping & rape on social media.
It is not the Conservatives who have mentally challenged leaders of their party like Auntie Maxine telling her equally simpleminded followers to harass and threaten Cabinet Members in public.
That would be the Leftist Democrat children who are always the source of public violence as they are immature snowflakes.
The owner was foolish! She should have told her staff that they would serve these people and treat them respect they deserve or they would be looking for another job. She turned away a dozen patrons kind enough to traffic her establishment. She missed out on several hundred dollars of revenue and her snowflake staff missed out on at least a $50 tip.
Now they are all suffering, for what? To show how righteous they are because they disrespected someone working for Trump.
Good riddance to bad rubbish! The deserve everything bad that has happened to them!

“Please Note: Beginning July 9, 2018, upon making a reservation, we will charge your credit card $45 per person. The total amount will be subtracted from your final bill when you dine with us. If you cancel more than 72 hours before your reservation, you will be fully refunded. Thanks for your understanding.”
Apparently, they have been getting a lot of fake reservations that disrupted their business. From their Yelp reservations page, I would guess that they are now open (Tuesdays through Saturdays, 5-9 pm), but it would be nice to get the truth from someone local.
Note: There are a lot of recent “reviews” on their Yelp page, but it is not obvious whether the reviewers ate there recently or at all.
Besides, there are things more important than civility, like mass shootings and children torn from the arms of mothers seeking asylum. Sometimes you have to raise your voice to be heard, especially if you’re a restaurant server, not a White House spokesperson. Where do you draw the line?
So it's okay to be less than civil to Mrs. Sanders. When a gloating post about how she was shown the door at the White Hen goes viral, she is not allowed to give her side of the story. Mrs. Sanders didn't start this fight, nor has she added fuel to the fire.
The author of the piece is very one sided trying to write like an even tempered observer...he left out at least 2 salient sentences....he writes that the staff had their right to protest Sanders actions...he should have written “and so do the Christian baker who doesnt want to bake cake for gay wedding.” He writes that one can vigorously disagree with someone..but dont make it personal...he should have added “did you hear that Maxine Waters?”
You can write this clueless observer, Mr Holmes off...total drivel.
The article blames it all on the Trump supporters. Says it was civil until they showed up. Lol.

Tell the Red Hen to go Pluck Itself.
I predicted it that day. The Red Hen is finished.
I know a bit about restaurants, and I simply watch politics.
The outrage and notoriety caused the place to shut down. After that, within one week, the workers and chef will be gone, because most live hand-to-mouth and a few have to support their cocaine habits. Any hard-working, responsible Maitre D or waiter will be known in the local industry and can easily find work within hours.
I hope they do go out of business. These little turds didn’t just refuse to sever the Sanders party. They went to another restaurant where family members ( not Sara and husband) went to eat.
Sound like the owners are busy living large off of all that “GoFundMe” money.
The author said: “But people don’t have to run anyone out of business because they don’t like their politics.”
Actually, they do. The left does it with alacrity. The right not so much.
Seemed like a hobby restaurant all along that probably is no longer any fun. They likely decided to take an extended vacay, hoping it’ll all blow over, at best.
