Refusal to Serve – Manager Loses Job

by Jack

He wore a red baseball cap that said, Make America Great Again, into the Teahouse and the manager told him to take it off or he would not serve him. Darin Hodge, the (former) manager of the Teahouse in Stanley Park, told Global News he stood by his decision to ask the man to take off the cap saying the hat (in his mind) represented “racism, bigotry, Islamophobia, misogyny, white supremacy, (and) homophobia.” This guy had been well indoctrinated!

“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. Absolutely no regrets,” he said in a written statement to Global News. Prior to this he had not made similar demands to liberal political messages that other might find just as offensive. Anyway he was fired because of his intolerance, if not stupidity.

    Yeh, he had all that down pat, It is just others have 1st amendment rights also, that he can’t seem to remember, hopefully this is a life lesson learned.

      “My bosses said my cartoons were ‘not funny.’ Maybe they weren’t laughing because they were seeing their own beliefs laid bare on the editorial page.”

      Or maybe his bosses were unable to find a nugget of truth in his “funnies.”

      All good political cartoons contain some measure of truth. The cartoon displayed at the link portrays Trump as the villain of this so-called “child separation crisis when he is merely enforcing laws others before him enacted (Bill Clinton) and enforced (Bush/Obama) when there was no public outrage!

      Sorry. The cartoon gets an F for being a blatant partisan lie.
