Controversial street preacher David Grisham shared video this week from inside a Wisconsin Subway restaurant, where an employee acknowledged she was refusing to serve him and three other men. The group, who traveled to the Republican National Convention from Texas, were wearing T-shirts with messages such as “Homo Sex Is Sin, Romans 1” and “Abortion Is Murder.”

Now some Christians are urging Subway to respond; others are threatening to boycott the fast-food chain. “Christophobic bigotry should not be tolerated,” Grisham wrote on Facebook. “Please give Subway corporate a call.”

David Grisham Refused Service at Subway

A 30-second video circulating on social media shows Grisham and his companions trying to order sandwiches at a Subway in Waunakee, Wisconsin. When one man asks a female employee, “Are you refusing to serve customers?” she nods. The person filming the encounter says, “I want her to say it again.” The woman then replies, “I am refusing you service.”

Sounds like this guy is trolling to me.
People troll. Bake me a cake. At least this guy didn’t demand a Subway sandwich that somehow spelled out his message. Like some people in Colorado do.

No shirt, no shoes, no messages I don’t like, no service.

Is it required of Christians in their religion to wear offensive shirts? If it isn't, I don't see how this is problematic. "We reserve the right to refuse service" is still a generally held notion in any service-oriented business.
