And not just them. He has issues with everyone. The first [url=http://www.yelp.com/biz/chicaro-club-enid#hrid:1-PFLcNSqBJQUs4azCSaIQ]review[/url] on Yelp put it like this:[quote]Appalling, bigoted, discriminatory behavior is regularly displayed at this establishment. The owner, Gary James, refuses to serve wheelchair bound persons, black people, Hispanics, mixed race couples, gay people, people who wear hats, people who ask for Budweiser, liberals, men with longish hair, people wearing clothes he doesn't approve of, people with facial piercings, on and on, ad nauseum. If you pass first inspection, don't think you've got it made - if he doesn't approve of an overheard conversation, if he decides you are too effeminate, if your politics don't agree with his, if you don't like the way your steak is cooked, if you cheer for the wrong team, etc etc, Mr. James will charge you more for your meal.[/quote]
[url=http://www.yelp.com/biz/chicaro-club-enid?sort_by=rating_desc]Some of these "reviews" though... LOL[/url]. It's sad to think [url=http://www.yelp.com/biz/chicaro-club-enid#hrid:-E52y-RYzFqXZ8jd6LmeBQ]this one[/url] might actually be from someone who thinks that way.

Umm... So what? Racism is still pretty common in the South, so I don't why this is news.

He has the right to deny service to anyone he wishes. He's scum, but it is his right.
-
owner is an idiot. Racism is the worst

Edited by Seman Barn: 2/11/2014 6:29:20 AMGood for him. At least he's one of the few people out there who's in it for the people, not the money. If you're a no-good he'll kick you right out. Respect.

I like how all the reviews make it seem like the best gay bar ever haha.

Edited by DarkSpyda04: 2/11/2014 6:36:19 AMAll I wanted was a restaurant that serves [i]all[/i] kinds of people but everywhere I go I get denied. All I wanted was a burger with fries...

He looks exactly like my Uncle.... Who lives in Oklahoma
-
If people really cared, he'd be out of business. People speak with their wallets louder than their tongues.
-
Hey guys, wouldn't it be funny if somebody gathered a large group of black people, homosexuals, people with hats, liberals, people with long hair, and they all swarmed to his restaurant to eat there?
-
I don't plan on ever going to Oklahoma let alone this guys restaurant.

Whoever thought that people would defend a person's freedom of speech even if it threatens someone else? I'm guessing those same people also say it's okay for someone to yell out, "Fire" in a crowded movie theater because it's the person's freedom of speech. Yes, the article does state that there are shirts that [i]threaten[/i] people that the owner doesn't like. I'm all for freedom of speech unless it ends up compromising a person's security and well-being. Then it's out the door that right goes. [quote]Those shirts say "-blam!--Free Zone," the N-word, and include threats against Muslims and Democrats.[/quote]

Edited by MoReCoWbELLx2x1: 2/9/2014 7:55:04 PM[quote]Meh, it's his business. Nobody's making anybody eat there. I don't agree with that guy's mindset at all, but I agree with his right to do business how he wants. He'll just never succeed and that's the great thing about how capitalism works; the strong ideas/practices survive and the weak ones die off. And those reviews all only sprung up after the media caught hold of this guy's restaurant. I doubt this guy was doing we at all beforehand.[/quote] I love how people get so pissy at stuff like this. It's his private business. If you don't support him or his ideology, don't eat their. He is serving you, he is his own boss. He should be able to say who can and can't eat their or who he wants to, or doesn't want to serve. However stupid that may be. There is a reason people have choices where to eat, no one is forcing you to go to his idiotic place. He has also been in business a very long time. If people actually cared, they wouldn't eat their.

Why the hell do you care? Yes some people are completly apeshit retarded. but it's his buisness and he will run it however he wants.

Edited by the Han: 2/10/2014 3:04:32 AMdiscrimination against race and sexual orientation is one thing......... but disabled people? that's down right sickening. i hope he eats shit and die. anyone who supports him should eat shit and die. -blam!- -blam!- -blam!-

I don't know if he's worth it at all. He's already destroyed the image of himself and his family and most will just go to another restaurant. Doesn't mean its right though.
