They are were willing to die for others to have individual freedom. Yes I’m conservative and against lgtbq, but I served for this country to defend freedom for all citizens.

Don't feel intimidated by real men. You're special, too.

I couldn't imagine working for a retailer in the 90's and thinking I had a right to wear whatever the hell I wanted to work.

I think it's pretty easy to appreciate someone for the sacrifice and service they gave their country and still think it adds zero weight to their opinions.

In my experience, Olive Garden food and service varies wildly. Maybe it was better when I had more beers.

I don’t get the hate on here about Olive Garden. The same people on here that make fun of Olive Garden loves Taco Bell’s menu.
I goto Olive Garden all the time for lunch. It’s cheap, it’s good and the service is always top notch.
Is it a 5 star diamond authentic Italian restaurant? No… but it’s decent enough to still call OG a pretty good restaurant with great service

I get it but olive garden? man you are asking for some ratchet shite if you go to olive garden.
That mindset is part of the problem. Whether you like or dislike Olive Garden shouldn't matter because the issue isn't "Olive Garden", it's that a business with nearly 2,000 locations is so heavily invested in proponing that a sociological disorder is healthy that it's willing to kick out customers who do not wish to participate in perpetuating that false reality.

He made a request. They said no.
I have eaten at a LOT of restaurants in the last fifty years. I can count on one finger the number of times that I have seen a patron thrown out of the restaurant for any reason other than drunken outrageous behavior.

I have had this happen to me. Both times I ask for the manager and both times I get up and say rather loudly, "I can not eat here with this thing waiting on me."
Both times I have seen others get up and leave with me.

I tend to agree.
I'd look for a new Italian restaurant chain that wants to operate in the south and see if this traces back to them.

I mean Olive Garden is trans-Italian.

You don’t have the right to not be offended.
First amendment and stuff.

Congratulations. You are a Karendickhead.
I don't agree with the ideology either. That doesn't give me the right to be a rude a-hole about it.

No. A man in a dress with bright blue eye makeup and purple lipstick is absolutely a put off. Lizzo wearing a thong is a put off. There are somethings that just don't jive with society. How you dress and how you act still should mean something.
If you know you are doing something that could potentially offend someone, don't got and get offended with you get the reaction you know you might get. It's simple logic.

Is that what happened? Seems like we read two different letters describing the event

Not nearly as much as I hate groomers who want to force children to assimilate to their perversions and even more so the simps who support these groomers by falsely claiming Olive Garden simply said "NO" when the reality is the OG kicked the family out.

They didn't just say "no". They felt the need to punish him and label him as something he is not.
Normal people do not have to put up with this trans non-sense. Just because some idiot wants to play dress up and pretend he is a woman doesn't mean the rest of us have to play along.
If I roll into that same Olive Garden believing I am King George reincarnated do the wait staff have to courtsie, bow, and address me as "your royal highness"? No, because I am either mental or full of shite. So is that dude.
THERE ARE TWO GENDERS with extremely, usually non-survivable exceptions.
