COLONIAL HEIGHTS, Va. --

Dressed in Donald Trump shirts and hats, the family walked up to the window at the Cook Out on Boulevard in Colonial Heights to order burgers and milkshakes.

"As soon as we got to the window, someone inside said 'Hell no! I'm not serving them,'" Riggs told WTVR.

After a few minutes of discussion behind the window, their orders were eventually taken.

"Everyone was laughing and giggling," Riggs said about the uncomfortable situation.

At one point, she said, an employee yelled that an order was ready, but when her cousin went to the window to claim the food, she was told, "Oh not for you!"

"You should not be discriminated based on who you support, whether it be Bernie, Hillary or Mr. Trump," Riggs said.

While the employees laughed, Riggs said, she canceled her order and asked for the number to corporate.

It’s OK, no problem. I’m just concerned that some seem to want to get a buycott going, and the company does not deserve it.

Until they tell us details of the "resolution" they achieved and we agree that the action taken was correct, they do deserve it.

Hiding behind "corporate policy" is cowardly. The employees deserve firing or at least several weeks off with no pay, and we deserve to know what their punishment was. Until then, a boycott is deserved.

They should be concerned about one color and one color only, Green. It is about keeping it in the black, keeping the margins no matter if they come in wearing a Trump, Bernie, or Che shirt, their money is still good. I suspect a stern talking too was issued or someone or a series of someones got chit sanned last night...

But I don't pi$$ in it for anybody, wouldn't contaminate anybody's food purposely.

You are a true gentleman, Aliska, no two ways about it.

They gotta sue! A la Christian bakery vs gay wedding cake!

You misunderstand anti-discrimination laws. They only work for the special people.
