Eizabeth Outland Branner, the president of the organization, accepted Wilkinson’s resignation Tuesday morning, WSLS reported.
“Considering the events of the past weekend, Stephanie felt it best that for the continued success of Main Street Lexington, she should step aside,” Branner wrote in an email.
As Fox News previously reported, Wilkinson told The Washington Post that she felt compelled to take a stand, citing what she called the Trump White House’s “inhumane and unethical” actions.
“I’m not a huge fan of confrontation,” Wilkinson told The Post. “I have a business, and I want the business to thrive.” But, she went on to say, “This feels like the moment in our democracy when people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals.”
Ms. Wilkinson, the only thing unethical before us today is your decision to eject a family from your business because of your politics, not theirs. Your politics of hate caused it – not theirs.
You have for whatever foolish reasons arrived at using a host of facts that are simply not in evidence. Given your politics… you probably felt that denying persons from countries with active terrorists entry into the United States was inhumane and unethical, right? That was certainly the opinion of your liberal democratic party. But, others did not see it that way and the Supreme Court backed us up – not you. Let me make this part clear – your party was wrong and you are wrong if you felt that way.
Next. What else do you consider below your dubious high moral standards? How about the enforcement of our border laws and the duty of the president to be sure that our borders are secure? The democrat party has said that is inhumane and unethical repeatedly, is that what you think too? Then once again, you would be wrong. The president has the absolute right and a duty prescribed by the Constitution to see that unauthorized entry in the USA is stopped.
To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, “Like so many liberals, you know a lot, but what you know is wrong.” You took your flawed political beliefs into your business and made a series of stupid mistakes. That made you look like a vindictive political troll. When you do that, do not expect your business to thrive.
“Your politics of hate caused it – not theirs.”
No.
I believe that the restaurant staff (some of whom are gay, and apparently all of whom are staunchly liberal) called her to the restaurant, because serving a member of an administration that proposed to ban gays from the military (plainly discriminatory) stuck in their craws, and they wanted to make a little discriminatory gesture of their own.
See, that’s what happens when you behave badly to a person … they behave badly right back at you.
As I said, this “tit for tat” thing will only escalate and cause serious trouble in our society, and it’s a shame that Ms. Wilkinson could not hold the line … however … a reversal would be a lot easier to accomplish if the “titters” would knock it off.
Did you see that old lady waiving her sign at Acosta? Geez. And he’s looking at her like: “lady, you need to take a pill.”
Go tell your doctors that, for the sake of a civil society, you need some Ativan … and then take it.
Libby please explain how Sarah Sanders and her family “behaved badly” to the restaurant owner…I want specifics!
“…a reversal would be a lot easier to accomplish if the “titters” would knock it off.”
The “titters?”
I do not live in your head. Please proffer a word easily recognizable by all.
It is a shame that our society has become offensive, threatening, and violent. a reversal would be a lot easier to accomplish of your party would stop using radical revolution tactics and simply engaged in the civil exchange of ideas.
Your parties current platform includes raising taxes, universal healthcare, open borders, and hating anyone that disagrees with them.
What that would mean for Americans: a crap economy, fewer job opportunities, medicaid level healthcare for all (not medicare), higher crime and gang activity, hoards of uneducated, poor needy people entering the country…death to America, even more corruption in government, greater wealth disparity, greater divisions along the lines of race and class, greater encroachments on freedom and equal justice. In other words a return to late term Obama governance…exploded!
