“It seems to me that most everyone on FR has their dander up over this more than Mrs. Sanders herself seems to”
SHS needs to stay above the fray, we do not. This is one time that I have no issue going to war for someone else.
I left a message with the restaurant. No cursing, no yelling, just letting them know how ashamed they should be for being so nasty to a good woman, wife, and mother. I said they were mean. Then hung up.
FReepers need to show up en masse wearing MAGA hats and do a Civil Rights movement style sit-in.
“Just found out that the Executive Director of Main Street Lexington, Stephanie Wilkinson, kicked Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her family out of the Red Hen Restaurant for purely political reasons. Is this bigotry true of your entire Main Street membership and staff as well? As someone who has served on our local Main Street Board for many years, I am appalled to see the Main Street name tarnished by the disrespectful actions of your Executive Director -— so very contrary to what Main Street is supposed to be all about. Do you agree with her bigotry, and support your affiliation with Red Hen owner Stephanie Wilkinson? What are you going to do to rectify this situation?”
I’ve been reading the Yelp reviews. Lots of people are pissed off.
I think the point is that, I prefer to do business with people I respect. It is OK for the Red Hen to deny service to Sarah Sanders. It is also OK for me to avoid patronizing them because of that decision. I do not respect how they run their business.
In the same vein, I believe people should be allowed to burn the American flag. I want to know who my enemies are.
Where we go one, we go ALL.
Wilkinson stepped in it. It is one thing for the media to joust with her in the press room, but to attack her, to kick her and her family out of a restaurant is just so over-the-top wrong. Happy to step up and like others on FR and elsewhere, say No, Enough!
Wow, a nerve was touched by booting Sanders and her family. Right now on Facebook, 75,493 comments. On Yelp, 12,544 reviews, which reflects what news reports said was Yelp removing them earlier today. Yelp even posts “This business is being monitored by Yelp’s Support team for content related to media reports.”
She is probably trying to do some damage control, after getting a better idea how stupid she was.
The pussy hat must have gone to her head.
So there’s her home address, husband, and much more.
According to the Red Hen’s menu, BUFFALO CREEK BEEF and DONALD’S MEATS, both of Lexington, Va. supply this restaurant.
Both of these companies need to hear from us, as well!
[LOL - no testosterone in that bunch]
Maybe the one on the .... (ahem) .... far left.
The owner of the restaurant's last ( married name) is NOT STREEP!
That twitter account no longer exists... she must have been bitten a few times ;^)
