There are literally 5 posters who just said they won’t go to those restaurants again.





From a pure political perspective, this debacle wont matter much as the majority of the city votes Democrat. .

Yes your right, the profits of those businesses will drop because of this. This is why taking a political stance is bad for any business.

But this thread does highlight what people of all political perspectives have noticed. We are passionate and take action on every pet issue, but not do ANYTHING when it comes to other quality of life matters.

Had reservations for Peche tonight, but decided I will spend my money elsewhere. I must say that I am very disappointed that Link Restaurant Group would associate with such a morbid cause.

They will receive a phone call and follow up email, just incase the hostess forgets, to explain my reason for cancellation.

Is it the group or a partner here and there that is participating. I think it would be difficult to partner with people who only share your view on political topics.

I doubt most of the Democrats in New Orleans can afford to eat at most of these places. So of it became something bigger than here, yeah it would hurt them. But it only being on TD they may just lose 100 of so people.

Probably won’t. But I’ll still laugh at every dollar they lose.

Also it’s hilarious they’re having an abortion bake sale in a city that desperately needs help controlling the crime problem. But the optics on that wouldn’t look as “virtuous”.

Peche is listed under the Link Restaurant Group, so I imagine that he is down with this political statement.

It actually would be easier to partner with like minded people, finding them, would be the difficult part.

So much for taking Sundays off.

I asked 2 questions. Maybe you should pay attention to punctuation.

I didn't force anything on anyone (can't say the same about you "pro lifers")

The left is the WORST about forcing things on people.

Pride Month - tranny kids book clubs

Or how about forcing a fricking tool into a uterus and forcing the clamps down on the neck of an unborn child until is severed from its body? Then forcing a vacuum cleaner into the birth canal and sucking the body parts out because mom wasn’t ready to have a baby.

All these emails of support look similar.

Where can I get a copy and paste message to show support?

While Democratic and largely progressive, New Orleans is not monolithic in those regards. Plenty of Catholics still here and a place like Willa Jean's is in the CBD where plenty of Uptown, Metry, and generally speaking more conservative types are known to congregate either during the workday or thereafter. I could see a place like WJ's taking a hit.

Pride month is forced on you? They force you to go to the parades? Get outta here with that crap. No one is forcing you to do shite. Terrible example. You are free to not oartake in the festivities. Or you can get all glittered up and dance to your heart's content. You know you want to.
