Hatebagging in OK. This guy hates everyone.

I hope someone can sue him out of business. Really deserves a good old fashioned civil rights sit in at his establishment.

Oklahoma restaurant won’t serve ‘freaks,’ ‘f*ggots,’ the disabled and welfare recipients

A restaurant outside of Oklahoma City is facing criticism after its outspoken owner made a series of inflammatory comments after one of his former customers, who is disabled, complained that he’d been banned from the establishment.

Matt Gard claims that the owner of Gary’s Chicaros restaurant, Gary James, banned him from the restaurant because of his wheelchair. James, however, says otherwise: “He created an issue. You only have one time here. You create an issue, you’re out forever.”

Gard claims that’s just “a weak excuse,” and that James’s real problem with him is that he’s on disability.

James doesn’t deny that he thinks some people shouldn’t patronize his restaurant. “Well if you work, you own a business, pay your taxes, you’re more than welcome here,” he told KFOR. “If you’re on welfare, stay at home and spend my money, there. I don’t deal with these people walking down the street with no jobs on welfare.”

what would change this morons mind? If he woke up tomorrow and he sat looking at his chair of transportation(as many of us do) would he feel being singled out for being one of the "freaks" on his list? Do people of any color,nationality,disabled/handicapped, have the same rights to enjoy a meal out? Does he really know where some of that money comes from in his grand little establishment? Has it all been earned honestly? He has no idea. He can't get beyond the hate in front of him and sadly he will never change. But how many through the years got used to this sick sense of humor(on his t-shirt) and stand by him? In some parts of the country this hate monger will be tolerated very well while others would not be too keen on his brand of thinking right out of the racist times edition. You have to wonder when did we start going back ward from all we fought for in the sixties and beyond.
