The Red Hen has not reopened since refusing to serve Sarah Huckabee Sanders last week

LEXINGTON, Va. (AP) — The co-owner of the Virginia restaurant that refused to serve White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders has resigned from a local business group.

News outlets report Stephanie Wilkinson, co-owner of the Red Hen, resigned Tuesday as executive director of Main Street Lexington. The group’s board president, Elizabeth Outland Branner, says Wilkinson felt she should resign considering the past weekend’s events.

Wilkinson told The Washington Post that she asked Sanders to leave the restaurant Friday evening at the request of gay employees who object to how Sanders defended President Donald Trump’s desire to bar transgender people from the military.

The Red Hen has not reopened since that night. Protests continue, with one man being escorted away by police after throwing chicken manure.

It's been widely publicized they'd be closed until the 5th.



Still a shithole though.

Did the gay employees also tell the owner to follow shs to another restaurant and demand that they not serve her also?

If he threw it on the awning, would anyone even notice?

Chicken manure might be the best thing on the menu at that dump.

Her story keeps changing. It went from I asked her to leave, to my employees voted for her to leave, to my gay employees voted for her to leave because Trump is ant transgender. fricking liars.

I can do pretty good impressions. Wonder if they have a large table in the back available for Matthew Mccaugnahey...

So was asking SHS to leave the restaurant and then following her to another one to continue berating her.
