Restaurant Refuses to Serve Christian Group, Citing Staff ‘Safety’ and ‘Dignity’

“We have always refused service to anyone for making our staff uncomfortable or unsafe and this was the driving force behind our decision.” 

(Selwyn Duke – The New American) Canceling a scheduled event at the very last minute simply because you don’t like the group that booked it doesn’t sound like a display of dignity.

The Washington Examiner reports on the story, writing that the group, the Family Foundation, “had scheduled an event at the Metzger Bar and Butchery on Wednesday but had its reservation canceled by the restaurant less than two hours before the scheduled time. The organization found out that its reservation had been canceled after a restaurant employee looked up the organization, and the restaurant’s waitstaff refused to serve it.” View article →
