Ex-Muslim Customers Kicked Out of Houston Starbucks for Wearing Ex-Muslim T-Shirts
PJMedia ^ | Tyler O'Neil

Former Muslims with Ex-Muslims of North America (EXMNA) were kicked out of a Starbucks connected to a Hilton hotel in Houston, Texas, on Saturday. Video shows Lina, an ex-Muslim Syrian woman, physically barred from re-entering the Starbucks after she had bought an iced coffee and was expelled from the establishment for wearing a t-shirt.

In the video, a Hilton manager came out to prevent Lina from re-entering the Starbucks. At first, he suggested that if the EXMNA volunteer merely removed her t-shirt, she would be admitted. Later, however, he refused to allow her companion to enter the premises, even though he was not wearing an ex-Muslim t-shirt.

"You're not allowed on the property," the manager said. When asked why, he reiterated, "Because you're not allowed. You've got shirts right now."

When pressed again, the manager explained, "There's a protest going on. You can if you take your shirts off, whatever."

*snip*

"This appears to be a case of discrimination," Muhammad Syed, president of Ex-Muslims of North America, said in a statement. "We were asked to leave the premises and informed that we could only enter the premises if we removed the shirts, none of which stated anything inflammatory."

If it was ex-Christian atheist, they’d be applauded

"Sharia law implemented - you simply can’t be an ex-Muslim."

Only without your head.

If someone objects to your MAGA hat, tell them your “Lock Her Up” hat is in the cleaners.

There is not enough to determine if the owner was one sided or not which is what would have determined discrimination. They only entertain the ex group in this entry. Did they also refuse pro groups in the mix? It is possible the owners did not want any possibility of the protest entering his/her business so the only way they could stop it was to remove or refuse entry of anyone connected to it on either side. Need more info before I can determine the intent of the owner.

I’ve seen both the Black Guns Matter and Take Back The Rainbow shirts in local Starbucks, though in a more conservative area. I’d imagine if there was a protest going on outside the establishment, that they’d be far more aware and proactive in ensuring that they have customers and not activists in the store.

Okay then, what about wearing “I Remember 9/11” t-shirts?

After the Muslims take over the World (in the Dem dreams), do the Democrats actually think they will still be safe???

Houston’s “so called bathroom bill” was 30 pages long and included a provision of an unelected unaccountable civil rights panel that would use taxpayer funds to launch civil rights lawsuits against some but not all customers who felt discriminated against.

Houston, another once great city going Marxist. Vote people. Vote dammit!

There aren't enough Americans left in the city to make a difference; it is completely inundated with Third Worlders and barrio dwellers.

I just flew back from Houston over the weekend. It seems that half the women in Huston wear head-scarfs. What has happened to the city? It wasn't like that 20 years ago when I lived there.

Houston has been controlled by Libturds for years. Same as Austin, San Antonio and Dallas.

The bathroom bill was passed by the lesbian mayor and city council. It was later put up for a vote and voters rejected it.

Well perhaps a better T would be one with the WTC on fire with the words: All I Ever Wanted To Know About Islam I Learned On 9/11

I get a strong sense that English is not the store owner’s first language. The article is missing some key facts...

These EXMNA people should just feel lucky their heads weren’t lopped off on their way out the door of a place that sells the world’s worst coffee!
