One of Trump’s Civil Rights Commissioners lays the smack down on the San Antonio’s mayor for excluding Chik-fil-a from the city’s airport food court…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…and does it in terms that Mark Twain and Will Rogers would approve of (emphasis added):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commission as a whole, to address the bigoted virtue-signaling displayed by the City Council in banning Chick-Fil-A from the San Antonio airport.
If the City Council had banned Chick-Fil-A from the airport because its members hate the tastiest chicken sandwiches in creation, there would be no constitutional violation. The City Council, however, explicitly banned Chick-Fil-A because of the company\u2019s charitable donations
to religious organizations. Fortune reports:
\u201cWith this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion,\u201d said City Councilman Roberto Trevi\u00f1o. \u201cSan Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our facilities for a company with a history of anti-LGBTQ behavior.\u201d
The lack of self-awareness in that statement is astonishing. Exclusion in the name of ostensible inclusion; intolerance in the name of tolerance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Litigation is threatened – and more importantly, prim virtue-signaling is mocked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I feel just a little more faith in my fellow human today. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
