LEXINGTON, Va. (WDBJ7) Hundreds of people, representing several different groups, gathered in Lexington Saturday for demonstrations sparked by the actions of a restaurant owner.
Motorcycles roared down East Washington Street as dozens lined the sidewalk, holding signs with sayings like "The Red Hen laid a rotten egg."
Nearly everyone who came out for a series of rallies was there to show support for President Trump, after the owner of the Red Hen asked his chief spokesperson to leave the restaurant more than a week ago.
"That was the straw that broke the camel's back and set us off and made us say 'we've got to come down to this town," explained Douglas Thompson of "Bikers For Trump," a group founded to rally support for President Trump and other conservative politicians.
"Our message is (we) need to start showing respect for the President of the United States," Thompson said.
Also on hand were members of a group called The Patriot Picket, a group that primarily advocates for Second Amendment Rights.
Corey Stewart, the man recently nominated by Republicans to run against Tim Kaine in this year's Senate race, also showed up to share his thoughts on what happened at The Red Hen.
"The left in this country has gone so crazy," Stewart told WDBJ7. "Tim Kaine and the Democrats are upset with the President and the fact that he's been so successful."
At least one person stood among those rallying for the President to show support for the owner of The Red Hen.
"I'm very impressed with this woman," said Vanessa Billings, a woman who traveled from Baltimore to show her support for The Red Hen and its owner. "It was a very brave thing to do. She is suffering economically from it."

Not sure I understand. Why are you advocating 5 star reviews?
Winning!
Figures the liberal defender would be from MD.
Embarrassing.
“she is suffering economically for it”. Oh well, that’s the potential price you may pay when you decide to “take a stand” against people in this way, on a partisan basis. At least her troubles are due to people’s right to give her their business or not. No one is suing her and trying to force her to suppress her ideology, much less trying to force her to express their own instead.
[ “The left in this country has gone so crazy,” ]
Absolutely. They are off-the-rails nuts. A good portion of them.
Maintain a safe distance.
That’s very good to see.
It’s how they get laid.
They put the Pussy hat on and become their liberal psycho woman’s emotional tampon.
It’s their only hope.
Agree with everything their woman says so she’ll let you watch her put her socks on once a year.
That’s liberal love.
At a recent Tea Party meeting we had an obnoxious young guy who wanted to videotape the proceedings which we do not allow.
When the young punk refused to leave, four Bikers for Trump, who were there for the first time, escorted the whining young snowflake outside.
The Biker for Trump guys are as burly as they look in this video.
Always happens.
Happened to our flood famous Ellicott City, and I fear it’s happening to our neighboring Catonsville in MD. Damn commie hippies everywhere, attracted to the charm created by CONSERVATIVES, then promptly push the real workers out to replace with their hipster doofus useless art and whimsy, followed by “historic” status.
Pretty funny but pathetic and most likely 100% true for these effeminate wusses.
/s didn’t seem to be needed.
Social Justice Warrior - meet the Invisible hand of the free market.
Your 2nd para is basically the analogy of good ol Kathy Griffin. Poor Kathy, victimized by Trump and supporters for no good reason.
Actually, I see no reason to constantly drag this all thru the mud. Just curse her business when you pass, badmouth it every chance you get, and don’t go. Protests is what stupid libs do, and only proves how much time they have on their hands.
AND NOT ONE PERSON HARASSED HER..............
Our protests are on weekends when we do have time off..............
Bout damn time we stand up and make our voices heard...........
Just don't sleep in a bed with sheets!
They seem to have done a 180 from No Blacks to No Whites, but they really haven't. It's the same old pit man against himself, so the reptiles stay in control.
““I’m very impressed with this woman,” said Vanessa Billings, a woman who traveled from Baltimore”
All you need to know, “came in from Baltimore,” the capitol city of the “Amalgamated $hit Cities of America!” Maybe she can bring over some black trash to burn down the Lexington, now that they have nothing left to burn in their “home city!”
I agree to an extent, but this is very personal, not just a mass public protest.
Imagine how the world will be with mobs pitching a public fit every time someone disagrees. Nothing will be pleasant again, no peace.
That is what commies do.
I did have to laugh at the Tea Party demos, though. The one time conservativ s start speaking up, and commies get all upset and accuse them of everything from hurting free speech to murder. They never see the irony in their absurd accusations. Projection.
“Red Hen’s husband and son must be quaking in their pink hats at the sight of bikers.”
Or maybe it’s just “sand in their vaginas,” as Jonah Goldberg has mentioned on occasion.
“Maybe closed for a lot longer than a week, I hope. No sympathy for your staff as well since they agreed with your hatred and bigotry.”
Everyone involved is missing their paychecks, and the “idiot owner” will end up not being able to pay her bills. What a shame!
