The attack on Sanders had to be premeditated, not 'in the moment' as owner claimed. Sanders had made reservations. The staff could have refused her at that time instead of attacking once they arrived.
The owner also followed them to another place after they calmly left the Red Hen, called up her gang of goons and continued to torment the group, even after Sarah and her husband gave up and left.
What kind of sick psychopath does something like that and then actually believes it's ok?

I’m disgusted with the petty and petulant actions of the owner of Red Hen restaurant on Washington St. It’s shameful how a customer is kicked out of a restaurant just by virtue of her Political beliefs. Extremely sun-American and mean spirited nonsense!

I don't want to boycott all of the Red Hen restaurants, just the one in Virginia. Sarah Wilkinson is a complete idiot/fool for her actions. If that would have been me, and her mental a$$ followed me across the street yelling around telling people not to serve me - I would have punched that hag right in the face. I am glad this nutcase had to resign. That's what you get for acting like a complete tool. However, what about the staff at this place? They were supposedly in on the "vote" to tell everyone to leave. They should be held accountable as well. They are just as guilty as she is. Also, there needs to be action taken against Maxine Waters - the pot stirrer. That withered hag is the one telling others to follow those who work for President Trump. She is pretty much trying to start a riot. That withered hag should lose her job as well.

Learning the background of the infamous Stephanie Wilkinson explains her bizarre actions...she is a Yankee from New York, a cousin of Meryl Streep, married to college professor at VMI...philosophy, failed business owner! She fits the pattern of a typical left wing liberal. Go back to New York where you fit right in! You give the state of VA. a bad name!

We kept our mouth shut for eight years with Barack Obama now it's time for the Liberals to keep their mouths shut with Trump.

You have to wonder why any restaurant would decide to refuse service to anyone based upon their political affiliation... Are they going to start requiring voter ID at the Hostess Stand?

No where in the FAQ section of the Red Hen’s website does it say Trump Supporters/Voters/Staff cannot eat there. Well now we know we can’t ... and won’t.

This dirty & offensive "hole in the wall" should be shuttered. I will personally never eat here, or anywhere else in Lexington, again.

Occasionally stopped at Red Hen when traveling on I-81, never will again. Incident with Sarah Huckabee was rude and inexcusable.

As a female, I am disgusted at what they did and said by refusing to serve this woman.
