As a restaurateur I disagree with you 100%. When I decided to open my restaurant I knew that I would have to serve all people, regardless of my personal beliefs and feelings. I expected everyone, employees and patrons, to behave themselves accordingly. My employees were not permitted to bring their prejudices to work and my customers were expected to have respect for not only the staff but also for their fellow diners. What happened here, as well as the Red Hen, is completely unacceptable. And yes, in this day of lack of respect for others, a plan to protect customers and fellow staff members should be implemented and followed.
Thank you. We own a small business and we leave politics at the door. If a mob showed up to harass a customer, they would quickly be escorted out. No drama. Out.

And is it not our responsibility to make sure our patrons are safe while on our premises? Don't we pay the big bucks for insurance to safeguard ourselves against law suits if our customers are injured, in any way, while in our place of business?
Many people find this type of thing funny or righteous. Believe me, it's not either. Civility seems to be a think of the past in some circles. One day somebody is going to get seriously hurt because they thought they had to right to get in someone's face. You don't need to use your hands to assault someone.
I think we are slipping towards civil war. People like those in this instance think the end justifies the means. But people on both extremes are totally out of their minds. I don't see this all just calming down over time. We past that possibility.
Its like you are in a relationship or marriage where you hit that point where reconciliation is not an option. We are there as a nation now.
Those anarchist protestors were stepping in private property at the restaurant. Should have been arrested.
