They were total POS adults.   I wouldn't have served them either.

Sometimes children are mature than adults. I wonder if those scumbag adults will be identified.

One of those times I wish the POS and his family were exposed for the souless asshats they are.

A truly great story. Thanks for posting it, Ptarmigan.

Erm, can we say First Amendment? I don't see anything wrong with expressing one's discomfort, even if it is a reflection of one's own ignorance.
First Amendment applies to the government, not private place. Stupid is strong.  :mental:

The US Constitution is a primary example of the differences between Liberal and conservative Philosophy. Liberals see the constitution as empowering govt by restrictions on the people while conservatives see the constitution as empowering the people by restrictions on govt.

It sometimes amazes me with the intolerance of retarded individuals who can not help themselves.  I worked with such individuals for a number of years and when someone  behaves badly toward them, I think they are truly the retarded ones.

From the story this little boy was not being disruptive.  Perhaps what irritated  those that made the comment was they disliked children in general or they truly have no feelings toward others unless it concerns themselves.

It is a fact that being retarded does not mean one has no feelings or wants and needs.

Liberals believe that such children should be aborted.

This man should be fired.   If I were the owner of a restaurant and a employee refused to serve a customer for any reason but being drunk and disorderly crap would hit the fan.

The people complaining about over heard shit needed to be moved to another station.  An apology from the manager and 25% off the bill would have done nicely to both party's.

Can't have it two ways a family that takes Aunt Nelly to dinner and she drools allot will put those in eye sight off their feed.  The professional know one does not seat a handicapped child or adult in the middle of the room.  A quiet spot but one where they can see others. Not out of sight but  one where they can can watch the goings on.

The handicapped do need to have social interaction but not in the middle of  restaurant one is paying $65.00 a plate, and some one lobes a french fry at.

It is clear you have no understanding of retarded individuals.  They do not all drool or make a scene.  When I worked with them we used to take them out to dine and other events.  Have you even met a downs syndrome person?

And this is why you are at home, posting on the internet between bong hits, instead of running a customer service business, vesta.   :whatever:

BS for stupidity.

The customer insulted another customer because he had Down Syndrome. The waiter had every right to refuse service to that asshole customer. Depending on the insult a smack upside the head may have been in order also.
