The intolerant leftist mob is coming for Christians everywhere, and we were just the latest target in the way this past Wednesday night.
The Family Foundation of Virginia is the largest and oldest pro-family advocacy organization in Virginia. Our team and supporters were denied a meal for our beliefs when Metzger’s Bar and Butchery in Richmond, Virginia, refused to service our pre-reserved event, leaving us scrambling just moments before. (Snip) About an hour and a half before the event was set to take place, one of the restaurant’s owners called our team to cancel. An employee had looked up our organization, and their wait staff refused to serve us.

Frankly, your group dodged a bullet. If you had held your dinner there and the waitstaff knew who you were and what beliefs you have, they would have spit or somehow tampered with your food.

Of course. They must dirty anything good and decent. Christians must stay the course.

Why did they get reservations there in the first place? My wife and I are quite choosy about where we eat out. We do a bit of research before going. A friend once told me not to eat at a place where the staff stands at the door laughing while you eat.

Do these Christian-haters realize how dangerous it is to do this? God will not look kindly on these people.

So, Christians can be cancelled but gays can't? Is this what is going on?

The end times are upon us....
The End Times Daniel 12:1
12 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered.

Isn't this like saying ' No Jews Allowed" . In an earlier time "No Catholics" allowed. Its very close to "No Blacks Allowed"
This should be a major law suit.

Actually, prior to boycotting the place, fill it with reservations and then refuse to leave a tip since it was the staff who complained. They cannot do anything about that. After the staff gets stiffed before Christmas, then boycott it.

So the Supreme Joke is hearing a case about Christians denying services based on their religious beliefs. The State forces they to perform services against their beliefs and to undergo reeducation. But the left can scott free deny services based on other's religious beliefs. How bizarre our 'legal' world has become

I love a good steak anytime, but the irony of a Pro-life group being denied service by a "Butchery" is too much.
They think that the upper hand on this subject. They don't. There are more of "us" then there are of "them" and hopefully they will pay the price in lost business with this move. We'll see how strong in their "belief system" is when the cash register stays empty.

Not the same, but I just learned today that our 'Angel tree' (pick an angel from the Christmas tree and provide gift(s) for needy child/person) has been re-named at our Southern Baptist church. It is now called the 'gift tree.' I would expect this out in the outside world but not inside our church. Don't know where the edict came from. I am shocked.

#9 is right. Get a good legal team and sue.
And warn people: if you're eating in that place, and they overhear you talking about conservative or religious (non-Left religious) subject matter, you can't be sure what they'll do to your food and beverages. The owners are nasty. They'll do nasty, too. That is obvious.
Remember when a restaurant booted Sarah Huckabee Sanders and family out of a restaurant? and Senator Cruz? and others, because of their political affiliation with Trump?
This bigotry is always found in totalitarian states and ought to be resisted, answered appropriately. Find a good venue and support them with your business.
Above all, people now need to be educated about living in an open and tolerant society. Have their brains shrunk from drugs and reality tv and stupid protest mob action? They demand that others conform, all the while seeing themselves as avant-garde, creative, clever and new. But they are not! They are all conformists, petty, but increasingly ruthless... not much peace-and-love from these relics.

Consider it a blessing. It would be a shame if Christians made many reservations and didn't show up....
I laugh because the leftists are okay with only serving those they agree with, HOWEVER others aren't allowed to do that... so odd..... s/

Show up and protest, harass and boycott. Do NOt break the law. Peaceful protests work best (unless you're the left and have the corrupt corporate media on your side).

My understanding is that the Jack phillips victory so enraged the left that they swore to refuse business to Christians/conservatives wherever/whenever they could, because to them it is the same behavior - to refuse business to someone with whom you disagree. They mocked the concept of religious beliefs as just an excuse to discriminate, so they vowed to discriminate in return. And so they have. It’s a war.

Wouldn't this kind of activity call for a law suit for discrimination? (especially since the reservation was accepted)
And on Twitter, they are finding out that pre-Elon, all kinds of child abuse was allowed and covered up!
May God help this country. Soon.

Their Facebook page has censored pro-lifers - "Metzger Bar and Butchery limited who can comment on this post."

DO NOT talk about religion and politics in a restaurant before the meals are served at the table! The chefs are professionals with pride, it's the others that you can't trust with the delivery of your meals.
