Ever notice how Leftistas launch into Let’s-Hold-Hands-Around-The-Campfire-And-Sing-Kum-By-Yah every time anyone dares to disagree or voice a differing opinion on just about anything?
Oh, wait. That’s not what the Left does whenever someone has the unmitigated gall to offer an opposing view or political affiliation. No siree, Bob/Bobbie/Ze. In Leftista lexicons, “Tolerance” is always a one-way street. Like this: “Tolerance for me but not for thee.”
That street rolled up to the drive-through window of a southern restaurant recently. It seems that an employee refused to serve a customer who committed the heinous crime of –gasp! – wearing Donald Trump apparel.
Via GOP News:
Cook Out, the southern restaurant chain with a cult-like following, has been called out for an incident in which their employees refused to serve customers who were wearing Donald Trump paraphernalia.
“Shannon Riggs and her cousins were turned away from a Cook Out in Colonial Heights, Virginia, on Friday night, when they showed up in Donald Trump shirts and hats, WTVR reports.
“Apparently, when Riggs attempted to order from the window, decked out in Trump apparel, an employee yelled ‘Hell no! I’m not serving them.’
Riggs says her order was taken but the food never arrived. She canceled her order. The family received a refund.
Business Insider reports that the incident didn’t sit too well with other Trump supporters. Some took to social media to call for a Cook Out boycott:

Back of The Bus Policy: Cook Out Restaurant Employees Refuse to Serve Trump Supporters https://t.co/QeW0zrcmPr
To be fair, kindly note that the service refusal was the action of a single employee. At least for now.
Based in North Carolina, Cook Out is best known for its “fast food fare and milkshakes.”
According to statement released by the company, Cook Out welcomes “all customers regardless of political affiliation,” the company said in a statement. “Regarding the refusal of service at our Colonial Heights location, the situation has been resolved and was resolved that night per Cook Out policy.”
What would happen if Cook Out politely declined to whip up matrimonial milkshakes for a same-sex wedding reception? Or served bacon during Ramadan?
