What a shame though that a Canadian business has better common sense compared to American businesses that would have jumped on the 'bash Trump' bandwagon.

Finally a liberal business living up to their motto of hate and intolerance has no home here....yeah I wish our liberals could learn of smidgen of tolerance but on the other hand, their hate and intolerance is electing Republicans so that's a nice benefit of their hate.

Quite a few men use a baseball hat all the time to cover up for their worsening baldness. They would rather do that than a wig or have hair transplant. This is not a regular hat or a top hat that they are wearing.

The manager went against the owner's policy and he was fired. Simple as that.


The manager should start his own restaurant and set his own policies, within existing laws.

People who walk around wearing campaign hats and shirts long after the election is over are just looking for confrontation. One of my kids works at a business with a decidedly liberal bent, and they occasionally receive customers wearing MAGA hats and in some cases carrying guns (we live in an open carry state). I've counseled her to ignore the provocation and just get them in and out as efficiently as possible. People like that are just testing the waters, looking for a fight. The best approach is not to give them one and let them move on to their next target.

It’s not the best approach. It is the ONLY acceptable approach. Any other approach means you are the aggressor/provocateur, not them.

Fair point. I agree.

It's not unlike that idiot I ran into on a plane flight very soon after the Las Vegas massacre who was proudly wearing an NRA hat and mouthing off to everyone about his extremist, right-wing beliefs. You have to be a real tool-bag to do a stunt like that, and a sadist to spout politics on a plane with a captive audience. And no doubt the righties would have defended him and pretended that they are the "victims" when they are picking fights... just any sod wearing a MAGA hat in public these days.
The NRA guy was out of line, but you guys really are a bunch of goose stepping, brown shirted nazis who want to just shut down anyone that doesn’t tow your party line. Don’t you have a concentration camp to build somewhere?

Why cover their baldness? I think a bald head is unoffensive. A hat in a nice restaurant is rude.

To prevent sunburn. A sunburned scalp is excruciating. That being said, a gentleman always removes his hat indoors.
