    I think American Legion vets would make a dynamite gang. Veterans most likely trained in automatic weapons and most probably trained to stay relatively calm while killing people. Maybe Dave & Busters should stay on their good side.

    What this spokeswoman means is "we're aware that weak limp liberals will become so triggered at the sight of an American flag that they might peacefully protest an arson on our facility and therefore we have chosen to cave to thuggish anti-American liberal bigotry rather than stand against the nation wide plague of infantile moonbats and their never ending salt butt-hurt QQ".

    Message received D&B, you're an America hating (*)(*)(*)(*) hole and you want real Americans to boycott you, got it.

    Wish I knew where one was, so I could boycott it.

    This is actually good news. The more these degenerate vermin pull stunts like this the more votes they lose for their gang leaders like Hillary and Schumer and the rest of the low life scum.

    Keep up the 'Cause', gimps, in fact ratchet it all up, impress each other with who can be the most pathetic and loony.

    What the manager should have done is offer them a 10% discount for their service to the country instead accusing a bunch of patriots of being a "gang". There are lots of alternatives that do offer so look around vets and don't be shy about asking. Wife received a discount offered the other day in a home decorating shop of all places. When the cashier noticed her military ID card she offered enough of a discount to pay the taxes on what was purchased.

    Anyway back to topic it the restaurant is now doing some serious backpedaling here. There are a whole lotta vets who don't don't belong to the American Legion who will be totally offended by this and the big boys in the beancounting office know it. Have to wonder if that team members could sit comfortably after his "education" by management


    Dave & Buster’s to review policy after American Legion rider incident

    Dave & Buster’s is extremely grateful to all of our active military members and veterans, and we are honored to have them as valued guests. We have apologized to Mr. Murdock for his experience this past weekend. Mr. Murdock has raised important concerns regarding our policies. We recognize the need to educate our team members about the American Legion, and have reached out to the local American Legion Post 179, and the national organization for guidance. In addition, we will review our approach to our dress code. We remain fully committed to our military and will work with the American Legion and Mr. Murdock on ways we can support their mission and their community,” company spokesman April Spearman said in a statement Tuesday.

    Well, that is obvious pile of fecies, I think. Is not American Legion a well known ogranisation, not to mention that it is, if I understand correctly, mainly includes veterans from the World Wars? If so - I have really hard time painting in my imagination elder veterans being a gang.

    Maybe Dave & Buster's will harass the Girl Scouts next. Some of them look pretty shady and a lot of their clientele seem to be addicted to their cookies.

    Looks to me as one very stupid managerrette spokes girl for the company is not capable of differentiating between a motorcycle gang and a motorcycle veterans service organization. The one glove fits all deal is just plain stupid and this company needs to address that or they deserve to be driven out of business.

    I would like to see some pictures of them, just to see what this motorcycle jacket looked like, but their comments were good, this is Texas, so most likely a conservative establishment

    "We are extremely grateful to all of our active military members and veterans and are honored to have them as valued guests in any of our locations," she wrote. "Our policies are in no way meant to be disrespectful and we apologize for any frustration this may have caused."
