No lunch for Huckabee, Is it the same?

"The cake baker refused to do a certain type of custom cake" for homosexual clients that he would do for heterosexual clients. That context matters.

Sure. Another context that matters is that it was a custom cake that required the baker to use his artistic efforts to give voice to a sentiment that went against his sincerely held religious beliefs. But none of that is particularly relevant in the Sanders situation.

And fwiw I completely despise Sanders. But the restaurant should have served her.

Normally I would agree but in this case I'm glad they didn't serve her. Sanders puts a smiley face on this administration's on-going attempt to turn this country into an authoritative state which includes, but is not limited to, the torturing of children. Either that or she knowingly lies outright.

And before the "deep down she's probably a decent person" crowd chimes in, the fact that she used her official twitter account to inform people of this event (a clear ethics violation by the way) makes me inclined to believe she's just as bad as the rest of them.

She deserves to be shunned.

"Brownshirts occupied the seats at his meetings, shouted insults at him, and on one occasion fired a shot at him, causing mass panic amongst his listeners and leading to a brawl in which more shots were fired by both stormtroopers and Reichsbanner men. Several Nazis and Social Democrats had to be taken to hospital, and not a single table or chair in the hall was left intact. After this, gangs of eight to ten Nazi stormtroopers harassed Buchwitz outside his house when he left for work in the morning, twenty or more crowded round him when he came back to his office after lunch, and between one and two hundred hassled him on the way home, singing a specially composed song with the words "When the revolvers are shot, Buchwitz’ll cop the lot!" Nazi demonstrations always halted outside his house, chanting "Death to Buchwitz!"


Public confrontation over politics remind me of the Coming of the Third Reich, but let's keep encouraging them.

If that's the case, and I believe it is, then shouldn't her and Trump and anyone else who protects him be tried for treason?

“The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders,” Trump tweeted. “I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!”

"Just days before the state visit of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to Mar-a-Lago, President Donald Trump’s Palm Beach private club, Florida restaurant inspectors found potentially dangerous raw fish and cited the club for storing food in two broken down coolers. Inspectors found 13 violations at the fancy club’s kitchen, according to recently published reports — a record for an institution that charges $200,000 in initiation fees. Three of the violations were deemed “high priority,” meaning that they could allow the presence of illness-causing bacteria on plates served in the dining room. Maybe the President should clean his kitchen before insulting another restaurant"

That the media is currently embroiled in a debate about civility in politics after the Red Hen incident, a year and a half into Trump's presidency tells you all you need to know about how ill equipped they are to deal with him.

It's absolutely absurd to me that after Trump has threatened to lock up his political opponents, has called the press America's greatest threat, condoned violence in his own rallies, and has stoked racial tensions with inflammatory and dehumanizing rhetoric, that now, today in 2018, the media thinks politics are becoming uncivil, and of course, the left is to blame. Just absurd.

While I doubt this will become a trend because ultimately restaurant owners aren't going to start turning away customers with different political views than their own (because capitalism), I'm not crazy about things like this happening. We are really struggling to maintain a sense of civility in this country, and paybacks to prove a point don't help to mend divides. Still, I must admit I chuckled at first.

It would have been better if she had mentioned this on her personal social media instead her government account.

Well, at least, it wouldn't have been a massive ethics violation. But her scumbag boss backed her up by doing the same thing.

 

[Gameface]

You work for Trump you don't get to have tacos. End of ****ing story.

Civility?

For years the GOP claimed that the twice elected POTUS wasn’t an American citizen because he was black. During one SOTU address a republican yelled, “you lie!”

The 2015 primary campaign featured a host of republicans talking about their penis size, bashing the faces of women candidates, and claiming that women moderators were bleeding from their “wherever.”

Over the past few years one side has consistently bashed entire races, retweeted KKK members and Nazis, and openly called for the imprisonment of political opponents.

But heaven forbid a restaurant owner deny the mouthpiece of this admin a meal. How dare a restaurant owner judge someone not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

I think if we are just noticing the lack of civility in our society, then we’ve been asleep for far too long. If we think that this is indicative of where we are, then we’ve missed out on nearly 3 years of incivility far worse than some restaurant. Hell, kids are in cages as we speak. If we think that being nice to the fascists in our country is going to fix the incivility, then we need to study history.

You don’t compromise with fascists, you fight and beat them. At some point the GOP is going to have to realize that most of America isn’t going to put up with their BS.

You don’t get got reat reporters like this and then just a day later bitch about civility after being denied a meal. Sounds like republicans want to be able to act uncivil to others while forcing everyone else to act civil towards them. That’s not how this works. Watch 1:09-1:15.

Let’s be honest, this is more about repubs desiring to shut up opposition while they continue along their incivil ways rather than any genuine calls for greater civility.

Let’s just remember, we are less than one week past Huckabee Lying to the entire nation claiming that children being separated from their parents and placed in cages wasn’t something that Donald could stop. She insisted that only Congress could fix it.

Yet what happened once the political pressure combined with protests became so great?

To me, desperate times call for desperate measures. We’ve never seen a regime this immoral, this cruel, and this tone deaf.

You’re so lopsided it’s boring. The two party system has turned us into political hooligans.
