We already knew that decades ago

We’re not the ones to trample another’s legit Constitutional rights

They are the ones wanting to trample on ours

Screw the bastards.

Dear Red Hen: Democracy isn’t totalitarian fascism, as your restaurant practices.

Democracy requires differences of opinion and toleration of those opinions.

Any restaurant owner should be able to ask anyone to leave, for any reason.

It is a basic First Amendment right, known as freedom of association.

It has been trampled on for nearly 50 years.

Um, democracy requires that everything gets voted on and the majority rules, period, with no overturns by judges.

Um, America is not a democracy, it’s a republic.

Um, the stupid, it burns at The Red Hen.

They (the “natives”) hadn’t ought to get too complacent about any show of fairness from the left. Because at any time, one of the lefty reporters will write another story about ignorant deplorables. Count on it.

Trump Country has been tolerating Sodomites, male-bashing, white-bashing, Christian-bashing, America-bashing, public immorality, socialistic indoctrination of our children and a general hatred of conservatives for a lonnnnnnnnnnnng time.

I think most of us here are done with tolerating the intolerable. I am.

“Democracy requires ‘Principled Government”

From someone who not just snubs SHS, but who supported HilLIAR Clinton

Oh, the Irony, Stephanie!!

You don’t need a condescending Harvard study to prove this. We all know its true.

Its why I left the “big city” to live in a distant country/suburb. Neighbors help each other, and don’t ask about politics. Its how normal people live.

That photo of the virtue-signaling liberals dutifully checking out the Red Hen menu...that will never be served. Reminds me of that Eleanor Rigby song by The Beatles:

Father McKenzie, writing the words
Of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near

Not surprising. Progressivism demands 100% obedience to the ideology. Anyone who does not toe the line is to be punished and hated.

In the end, running customers off in such a blatant manner is asking for trouble, especially at a customer-oriented place like a restaurant.

LOL at their sign.

Democracy is simply the majority of the voters, and the government is created or put in place by that majority...

So if the government is “unprincipled”, what does that say about the majority of the voters?

And then who gets to decide what is principled? You, or the majority?
