Fired manager Darin Hodge said the issue erupted when he asked a customer to take off their MAGA hat. In an emailed statement, he said he would do it again.
“I stand by my decision to ask the patron to remove his hat. The MAGA hat has come to symbolize racism, bigotry, islamaphobia [sic], misogyny, white supremacy, homophobia. As a person with a strong moral backbone, I had to take a stand against this guest’s choice of headwear while in my former place of work,” he wrote.
Eva Gates, Vice president of Human Resources for the Sequoia Group of Restaurants — which owns the Teahouse — agreed with how the incident began, but said it amounted to a refusal of service.
I’ll have to keep an eye out for when Trudeau rewards this guy.
Yep. I was taught your hat served two purposes...
Keep the sun off your head and to tip to ladies.
Hats always came off in the house.
Says who? Our MSM?
I thought that, in Canada, just saying that is a hate crime if using the wrong pronoun is a hate crime.

“Cana-duh”. I hear justine is going to have some newly arrived folks living with him and his family soon. No?
“The MAGA hat has come to symbolize racism, bigotry, islamaphobia [sic], misogyny, white supremacy, homophobia.”
And none of these people could come up with one example of any of these things if they were challenged. Nobody ever challenges them. I don’t get it. They just repeat what MSM says, but have no proof.
One should have the courage of one’s convictions to thow away their entire career to take a stand.
Hope he enjoys his new career washing cars, and doesn’t lose that job by refusing to wash ones with pro-American bumper stickers...
This illustrates the problem with liberals. They assume the right to define others and a thing a little as a hat as beyond the pale for their own reasons.
They have no such right.
No Darin, you are the problem not the hat. You are so consumed with hate you cannot see truth from lies.
I see the same crap from lib acquaintances constantly. Gotten to the point that I simply laugh at their unsubstantiated screaming. Yeah, I can deal with them. Well, some of them.
If he has a FB page, he probably has the little “NOH8” sticker on his profile pic. Yes, they are that stoopid.
If you get served it may be with a side of saliva
I wore my MAGA hat to Perkins just yesterday. Every once in awhile I have people say they like my hat. I always ask, “Where is your hat?”
Anti-MAGA has come to symbolize pedophilia and child trafficking.
and yet people of his ilk wear pussy hats proudly
Why would any sane person wear a MAGA hat into a restaurant? That’s just inviting bodily fluids into your food.
>> You shouldn’t be wearing a hat inside anyway <<
Couldn’t agree more. But don’t trying saying that to all the farmers and truckers dining at your local Cracker Barrel or McDonalds. Do it and you’d be lucky to escape with your person fully intact.
“Cana-duh”. I hear justine is going to have some newly arrived folks living with him and his family soon. No?
I sure hope he does something to trigger them, hopefully around dinner time...….
Trudeau will probably make him Secretary of State, or whatever it is they call it up there.
No different, really, than a woman dying her hair. It is just that a ball cap is a less expensive solution. Since tt didn't interfere with their work, safety or vision nor that of others, why fuss about it?
