White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was
evicted from a Virginia restaurant recently because she works for President
Trump, according to both Sanders and
the restaurant’s owner. The owner of The
Red Hen, a farm-to-table eatery in Lexington, said she kicked Sanders-- and
seven of her family members-- out on “moral grounds.” Sanders confirmed the
events on Twitter, saying: “Her actions say far more about her than about me. I
always do my best to treat people, including those I disagree with,
respectfully and will continue to do so.”
Tragically,
Ms. Sanders, that may no longer be the best way to deal with the increasingly
hateful, unhinged, intolerant left.
Sanders
is just the latest member of the administration to be hounded out of a
restaurant. Homeland
Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was chased out of an establishment in
Washington, D.C., only days before Sanders was deported from her table at The Red Hen. A few weeks prior to that,
Tomi Lahren, a conservative commentator, was forced to flee a rooftop
restaurant in Minneapolis after deranged progressives harassed and swore at her.
Notice that,
in each of these instances, it was a woman who was abused and hounded out of
the restaurant. Where is the outrage from women’s groups? Where is the #MeToo
movement?
Crickets.
Unfortunately, that shouldn’t be surprising.
Just as most Democratic leaders don’t give a rat’s ass about black folks,
progressive women’s groups aren’t really about women, per se. If blacks don’t
all think alike and cotton to the party line, they are harassed, not
celebrated… or even tolerated. As Justice Clarence Thomas, Kanye West, and many
others could tell you. Similarly, if women don’t believe in abortion, big
government, or that Republicans are evil, they are not authentic. They are
despised.
If you disagree with the left, you are
not a person, you are a target.
So, it has come to this: in today’s
America you can be kicked out of a restaurant for the crime of being
conservative. Or Republican. If that’s the case, then surely you could be
kicked out of one for being a Democrat, an Independent, a Libertarian, black, a
Jew, a lesbian, Catholic, a free-trader,
a businessman, or a thespian. For starters.
What’s next? Separate eateries based
on your political views or personal beliefs? Segregation 2.0?
Food for thought.
