Bars Can Legally Throw Out Trump Supporters, Judge Rules In Northern State

Going out drinking in a big city bar has its problems. It’s noisy. The places are crowded with loud, irritating people. And there’s always a chance you’ll get caught up in a barroom brawl.
Then there’s the overpriced drinks, the bad music, the pickpockets and con artists waiting in an alley. Honestly, you’re better off staying at home.
Now there’s a new reason to avoid big city bars: liberals.
Since the election of Donald Trump, Democrats have good reason to drink. They’ve been flocking to Northern bars to drown their sorrows. Like the rest of their petty ilk, they don’t like being reminded their candidate lost.
So, when a man visiting from Philadelphia walked in with a MAGA hat, things got ugly. The owners of the bar threw him out, saying anyone that supports Trump was not welcome.
The man was rightfully upset and took the issue to court. Naturally, the judge was a liberal hack who decided it was okay this man was discriminated against.
From New York Post:
A Manhattan judge ruled Wednesday that there’s nothing “outrageous” about throwing the president’s supporters out of bars — because the law doesn’t protect against political discrimination.
Philadelphia accountant Greg Piatek, 31, was bounced from a West Village watering hole in January 2017, just after Trump took the oath of office, for wearing a “Make America Great Again” cap, according to his lawsuit over the incident…
But on Wednesday, when the bar’s lawyer, Elizabeth Conway, pointed out that only religious, and not political, beliefs are protected under state and city discrimination laws, saying, “supporting Trump is not a religion” — Piatek pivoted…
“Plaintiff does not state any faith-based principle to which the hat relates,” Cohen said in tossing the case.
Piatek had sued for unspecified emotional damages, but the judge said the incident amounted to nothing more than a “petty” slight.
This ruling basically says that it’s okay to mistreat someone for their political views. A bar has to serve gays, Muslims, minorities—but a conservative? I guess they don’t have the same rights.
This is more petty, ugly liberal bigotry. They want conservatives to just go away. Some want us dead in the streets. While few of them can make that happen, they can at least treat us like second-class citizens.
The incident is a clear violation of this man’s civil rights. Why should a man be treated less, just because he has a different political view? Advocates have fought for years to make sure people of all races, sexuality, and religions are treated equally in the United States. But according to this judge, that same equality doesn’t extend to your political views.
It sets a dangerous precedent. This judge essentially said liberals can treat conservatives however they want. They can abuse them, attack them, or throw them out of bars. What next? Will conservatives be denied seats on airplanes? Will Trump supporters be kicked out of schools? How about getting a job or opening up a bank account?
How far will this discrimination go? It’s pretty shocking to see liberals—who claim to fight injustice—so happily embracing bigotry.
What was that called again? Oh right, hypocrisy.
