[Got a right to Life? . . Huh?]

The owner can refuse service to anyone, I guess. Likewise, patrons choose where to spend their money. Some who have not taken a vow of poverty may read about John Langley's notion of civility and community and decide on a permanent alternative business to patronize.

I doubt that the subset of people who feel the same about the police could sustain his business, but then again, I've been away from the social & urban decay of Portland for over a decade. Things could have gone so far south that Mr. Langley was pandering in a populist way to his patrons who are loyal devotees to anarchy.

He will likely get a boom of business from the Peoples Republic of Ptown.
