A Minneapolis coffee shop is telling Donald Trump supporters that they aren’t welcome in their business.
If you live in the area, take them up on their offer and boycott this Urban Bean coffee shop.
I doubt there are enough Communists who will buy coffee from them for their business to remain solvent.

From City Pages (http://www.citypages.com/restaurants/urban-bean-coffee-shop-tells-trump-supporters-do-not-spend-money-in-our-stores-8352031):
It’s not often that a small, locally owned business can afford to turn away business. But if it means shunning Donald Trump and his fans, Urban Bean coffeeshop will forgo the cash.
On Sunday, with the country still reeling from the aftershock of its largest mass shooting in American history, Urban Bean posted on Facebook that supporters of Trump were no longer welcome to “like” or “follow” the shop’s page. In fact, they were no longer welcome to spend money at either of its south Minneapolis locations.


The final straw that made Urban Bean take an official anti-Trump stance was the candidate's reaction (http://www.vox.com/2016/6/12/11912348/donald-trump-islam-comment-orlando-shooting) to the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando over the weekend. The Facebook post has received plenty of reaction — both positive and negative — but Martin believes the ban is a pretty simple issue: "I don't know that it's even that controversial," he told City Pages. "We just don't feel like there's room for that kind of BS in our store."

Trump Supporters Are Now Boycotting Cook Out After Employees Hurt Their Feelings

Cook Out, one of the best fast-food joints you are probably completely unfamiliar with, is under fire by Trump nutjobs after employees refused service to Trump supporters at one of its Virginia restaurants.

When the Riggs family, a detestable looking bunch from Colonial Heights, Va., attempted to order food at the Cook Out window in their Trump garb, they were met with a harsh, hilarious denial.

“As soon as we got to the window, someone inside said ‘Hell no! I’m not serving them,'” Riggs recalled.

After a few minutes of discussion behind the window, their orders were eventually taken.

“Everyone was laughing and giggling,” Riggs said about the uncomfortable situation.

She said at one point, an employee yelled out an order was ready, but when her cousin went to the window to claim the food, she was told, “Oh not for you!”

And then this beautifully ironic quote:

“Once you witness [discrimination] first hand, it’s a totally different experience,” the teenager said. “I was in a state of shock.”

Really changes your perspective, doesn’t it?

Of course, the thin-skinned Trump supporters have called for an all-out ban on Cook Out, which would suck for them but ultimately be better for me because it would mean shorter lines. Cook Out, a regional chain out of North Carolina, specializes in delicious food like this:

No more "Cook Out" Restaurant for me. They denied the people for Trump food.

From Business Insider:

“I could overlook your mediocre food but not your discriminatory practices,” reads one such comment on Cook Out’s Facebook page. “Your employees are obviously ignorant when they engage in such behavior and face little to no consequences from corporate. Keep your lousy food; your piss poor corporate practices and your political activism.”

Cook Out, a chain best known for its traditional fast-food fare and milkshakes, did not immediate respond to Business Insider’s request for comment, but, in a statement to WTVR, the company said it is a “politically neutral company.”

“We welcome 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.”

The “bigoted left” would never be caught dead at a place like Cook Out. While absolutely and unequivocally delicious, Cook Out food clogs your arteries so fast it makes McDonald’s look like Whole Foods.

Cook Out is the official fast-food restaurant of drunk college kids in North Carolina. From App State to UNCW and every small-town and major school in between. It does not cater to any political system that isn’t deep-fried and covered in honey mustard.

Why anybody would politicize Cook Out is beyond comprehension. This is the most outrageous thing to happen this election season. I won’t stand for it.

Leave Cook Out alone..

Was it Trump's post regarding stripping people on the No Fly List of their right to bare arms?

So what if announced that your coffee shop was banning gays and lesbians? Would that be OK?

Those people's civil rights have been violated. They're being refused service based on their beliefs. Jesus Christ....it's right there in front of our eyes!
