Claim: ‘Red Hen’ Owner Followed Sarah Sanders’ Family to Another Restaurant, Kept Heckling Them
Breitbart ^ | 6/26/18

Posted on 06/26/2018 6:20:59 AM PDT by Altura Ct.

Gov. Mike Huckabee said Monday on the Laura Ingraham Show that even after Red Hen restaurant owner Stephanie Wilkinson threw his daughter Sarah Sanders out because she worked for President Donald Trump, she also stoked a protest at a nearby business where some of Sanders’ party had relocated.

Sanders, Trump’s press secretary, wrote on Twitter about the incident.

“Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left. Her actions say far more about her than about me. I always do my best to treat people, including those I disagree with, respectfully and will continue to do so,” Sanders tweeted.

Huckabee told Ingraham that after being asked to leave the restaurant, Sanders and her husband returned home, but the rest of the family went across the street to another restaurant. Huckabee said while Sanders’ family dined across the street, Wilkinson followed them to the restaurant and harassed them there.

“The owner of the Red Hen called people and organized a protest, yelling, and screaming at them from outside the other restaurant and creating this scene,” Huckabee said.

Some of Sanders’ in-laws, most of whom Huckabee described as “very liberal,” confronted the protesters, according to Huckabee.

“One of the members of Sarah’s in-laws who were there walked out and said, ‘Look I don’t like Trump, I’m not a supporter … but you guys are embarrassing me, and you’re not helping the cause.’”

“This is what the left has been reduced to,” Huckabee said. “It’s really tragic, and it is dangerous, and that’s what I think people need to recognize.”

Did Sanders’ in-laws have a child with them? Maybe the Red Hen owner’s sex offender pedophile partner was interested in that.

“Politico” won’t even admit that it’s a fact that Sarah Sanders was asked to leave the Red Hen.

They write today, “she said she was asked to leave.”

I've seen this mentioned several times, even by Sarah's father, but never substantiated. She has not confirmed it. It would be great to hear her confirm if Wilkinson followed her out of the restaurant. If so, that definitely changes the whole thing in my opinion.

I was looking in the news this morning and see that Wilkinson is still executive director of Main Street Lexington and her restaurant is scheduled to reopen tonight. I think we need to continue pressuring on both points.

The ‘heckle’ crowd, or the rabble-rousers....will one day face up to a couple of folks who seem to be in limited and marginal numbers, and then some ‘Billy-Jack-like’ situation will develop where a dozen hecklers are dismantled and left with broken limbs and blackeyes. Then it’ll become common for the left to resort to instant violence, and various groups will counter the social justice crowd.

Cops? I don’t think they will attempt to get in the middle of this, nor would I recommend they do anything stupid.

Somewhere....likely after the November 2020 election, I expect dozens of people hurt every weekend, and people start to be arrested for assaults, with prison-time involved.

Kurt Schlichter wrote about the inevitable result of the left’s rhetoric and hyperbole yesterday. What is the “logical” conclusion one has to reach when you are “resisting Nazis” after all?

Some Presidential pardons of anyone convicted of assault (or worse) on a progressive street theater participant would send a pretty clear message. It would also clear this crap up in a matter of weeks, if not days.

How many like James Hodgkinson will gun down Trump supporters?
We were very lucky that he didn’t kill anyone.
How will Waters react when the next James Hodgkinson is incited by her words and is a better shot?

Here, let our voices be heard! Stephanie Wilkinson is owner of Red Hen (may have or previously had registered sex offender Barney Allen Frazier as a partner according to a former employee). She is owner of House Mountain Yarn Co. And in this county that voted 63% for Trump, she is executive director of Main Street Lexington, which claims to promote downtown businesses. Yep, promote bigotry.

Here are members of Main Street Lexington. Write them as has if they support her bigotry, if that is what downtown Lexington is all about.

Got a few minutes, send them a polite email asking if they agree and support and appreciate the affiliation with Red Hen owner Stephanie Wilkinson. Should we boycott them as well?

She has not confirmed it.

She wasn't there. She and her husband went home, her in laws went to the other restaurant.

I visit the left wing sites from time to time, just to keep an eye out.

The hate and vitriol is breathtaking. They actually believe all that Nazi crap. They watch ABCNNBCBS AND BELIEVE EVERY WORD THEY HEAR in the MSM Echo Chamber.

They have absolutely no logic or reason, just hate..............................

I read someone said "it's ok to harass 'powerful people'" (like Sanders).

You know what's better when you come in contact with "powerful people"?
Talk to them. If you don't want to disturb a customer during a meal maybe you can
* Write a letter as they eat and ask them to read or deliver it at their convenience
* Invite them back for a meal on the house with conversation about issues you care about
* Find some common ground that will facilitate future conversations (and a repeat customer, probably with "powerful friends").

If liberals thought they had good arguments and had the ability to "use their words" (isn't that the phrase we tell 4 year olds) they would be able to do things other than harass and destroy. When something like this happens we know the person either doesn't believe their own BS or is incapable of expressing their beliefs through conversation.

Conservatives should make reservations for huge parties.

Only drink water.

Order the cheapest item on the menu. Eat and stay a loooong time.

Give an appropriate tip (a penny maybe?) to the snowflake waiter or waitress since the owner said she did it for them.

Hurt her in the pocket book.

Yep. The left is banking on it They even hope its one of their own that gets martyred. All for the “cause” of course...

And its all because they lost another election. Absolutely pathetic.

Have they confirmed it? Is there video? Any direct confirmation beyond the 3rd party ‘I heard’ reports?

That’s a great pix. I didn’t realize that MLK tried to eat at a lunch counter.
