LEXINGTON, Va, (WDBJ7) - A restaurant in Lexington remains the center of heated discussion online and on the streets of Lexington.
This came after President Trump's Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was denied a meal there Friday night.

It was mostly quiet outside The Red Hen Sunday, but all day long people were walking by to take pictures in support of the restaurant, other boo-ing out the windows of their cars. But given Lexington's history and political climate, some locals they're not surprised Lexington is once again in the national spotlight.

"And I think that it was total discrimination and to ask a dignitary, like Sarah Sanders is, to leave and it would be a privilege to serve her, I think is total discrimination," said Ronnie Downer from Covington.

Some agree with Downer and condemn the Red Hen owner and staff.

"I don't support discrimination in any facet," said Larry Heatwole. "If that had been somebody from the Obama administration, I would be just as upset."

Others steadfastly are in support of the restaurant.

"I think it was courageous for her to speak out against injustice," said Demaree Peck, who said she is friends with the owner of the Red Hen.

Still, some find themselves somewhere in the middle of the argument.

"I think that no one should get turned away for anything, it's their right to do what they're gonna do," said Jonathan Vance.

The conversation is similarly polarized online. People have taken to Yelp and Facebook, rating the restaurant and the city as a whole, based on their take of the situation.

Still, some of the locals we spoke with say they weren't surprised Lexington is in the middle of a national conversation once again.

‘I’m not surprised at this at all," Heatwole said. "I’m disappointed very much because Lexington doesn’t need this mud.”

"I regret the polarization that's happening in the community," Peck said. "But I think it's good to have constructive dialogue and conversation."

We've made multiple attempts to reach out to the owner of the Red Hen., She has not yet responded to our calls. A voicemail for the restaurant phone number also does not appear to be working.

Twice on Sunday, Lexington's Fire Department stopped by the restaurant. Peck said she smelled gas coming from the restaurant and called Columbia Gas. She told WDBJ7 her friend, the owner, had received death threats following the incident, so she felt the need to call the fire department out of an abundance of caution. The report of death threats had not yet been confirmed by the owner nor by the police at publication time. Police closed off the block while the fire department inspected. They left within 20 minutes and determined there was no threat of a gas leak.

A GoFundMe in support of the restaurant had also raised $2.500 by Sunday evening, asking people to "spare a few bucks to offset the cost of her courage and to send a message to other businesses that the good people of this nation will support them if they support us."

re GoFundMe - If I pay you for being an asshole, how will I pay all of the other entitled assholes?

You cotton-pickin' HYPOCRITE! Yeah...only when the other person agrees with you! I wouldn't put it past Peck and friends to be reporting false "gas leaks" as describe in the article to inflame (no pun intended) the issue.

Mike Huckabee Says Owner of Red Hen Followed Sanders Family to Another Restaurant to Start a Protest


Former Gov. Mike Huckabee spoke today with radio host Laura Ingraham on her show Monday regarding his daughter, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders, being kicked out of a restaurant over the weekend. According to Huckabee, things were not as “polite” as has been reported.

Ingraham released the segment with Huckabee on her website Monday afternoon after Tweeting a summary.

Huckabee picks up where the story so far left off: after Sanders was asked to leave. According to Huckabee, Sanders and her husband departed the restaurant and went home alone, but her in-laws continued on to another restaurant.

By the way Laura, there’s a part of that story that hasn’t been told, you’re going to be the first to hear it. Once Sarah and her family left, of course Sarah was asked to please vacate, Sarah and her husband just went home. They had sort of had enough. But the rest of her family went across the street to a different restaurant. The owner of the Red Hen – nobody’s told this – then followed them across the street, called people, and organized a protest yelling and screaming at them from outside the other restaurant and creating this scene.”

Huckabee notes that many of her in-laws are liberals and stated that one of them confronted the protesters, saying they were making liberals look bad and yelling at someone who wasn’t even there.

“This is what the left has been reduced to. It’s really tragic,” he said. “And it is dangerous.”

I had read that on Zero Hedge and was going to post it, but hadn't seen it elsewhere so I wasn't sure it it was hearsay, but if Mediate is now reporting it, I think it happened.

Drudge needs to pick this up and let the world know that this red Hen owner is an asshole and bully and not let her get away with this garbage.

As it stand now, I think she's going to end up closed anyway within a couple months if not weeks.

The truth hurts... well, these people don't care about the truth. Sarah Sanders is a good woman and handled this the right way.

I have a feeling the neighboring restaurant and shop owners will not be too happy about this. Especially when she was heckling customers that went to another establishment after they were thrown out of hers.

Their website must have been hacked you end up on an Asian site now.

If true, wow. They deserve to be shut down.

I call BS on courage. If they had any inkling on any adverse reactions their actions would cause, they wouldn't have done. I am skeptical of any comments that would suggest a biz owner would accept losing their business to do something like this. They were hoping for a positive outcome and will get screwed by public sentiment. Good. See ya, bye bye.

Obviously, the owner was lying when she said the rest of the family was welcome to stay at her restaurant, if she followed them across the street to keep the shit going.

I didn't get an Asian site. It seems to be working just fine.

Weird. I just tried and was sent to what appears to be an Asian Lexus delaership.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) encouraged people to confront Trump administration officials over the separations of families if they see them in public.

“If you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd, and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” she said.

My knee jerk reaction to this, and probably why she was so quick to retract, is that both sides can play this game. I then realized that one side all have jobs and are probably too busy for this nonsense.

try this one.
I was also getting a car dealership on the other link.

I think that the owner of The Red Hen should rename her restaurant The Pickwick Redux. I'd be in for sending her an ax handle.

Old timers here will get the reference. If not , just google Lester Maddox.
