[QUOTE="Go Braves, post: 72871125, member: 398403"] Smh. No, I'm not just [I]now [/I]looking at it with legal definitions. Legal, logical, and moral definitions have been the basis for all of my posts. Your exasperating squabble over semantics has made me have to be very tedious with you, using legal definitions I'd just assumed most folks already fully understood & therefore didn't require being stated. I don't know if the owner of Red Hen & SHS are of the same political affiliation. What I do know is that though the little town of Lexington is more liberal-leaning, it's surrounded by more conservative areas & it gets a good number number of tourists. The Confederate general Stonewall Jackson is buried beside the restaurant. A lot of folks interested in Confederate history visit that. Those folks tend to be more conservative. On Trip Advisor there's reviews from hundreds of folks dating back a decade, & they're almost all positive. It has an almost perfect rating. Had they been in the habit of turning away folks who don't share the same political views, folks would have taken to the site before the SHS thing was being talked about nationally to state that. I brought up the traits on account of the repeated false equivalencies folks have made here between SHS being asked to leave a restaurant on account of her actions & systematic discrimination such as "whites only" restaurants. If the owner was black, younger & a man and have behaved in the exact same manner as the owner of the Red Hen did, politely talking to SHS in private & explaining the reasons for asking her to leave (support of cruel & unethical policies) he'd have been just as justified. Of course all the folks running around, stupidly tarring & feathering restaurants up in Canada that just happen to have the same name as Red Hen, would be making an even bigger stink than they are now. It already stinks pretty bad considering that Trump supporters have thrown chicken crap at the restaurant. Refresh my memory - are you the same fellow who said you hardly ever brushed your teeth for 11 years on account of how you just didn't see the point? Not related to this topic; I'm asking on account of trying to understand who it is I'm having a conversation with, how to go about making points to you. [/QUOTE]
