    looks like its over them being a party of 7 they don't cater to a party of seven ....

    then they started getting upset ... i believe it was a black women who told them no cuz they were 7

    there was another black women who backed them up by saying it was cuz they were a party of 7

    I don't see discrimination

    after they made a scene they asked them to leave it's their company policy

    Im not seeing the big deal .... it was a 2 black women that denied them service

    The white guy just backs up his workers and his policy

    it be different if it was an all white staff but it was a black women that denied service initially

    Oh right because black people are incapable of enforcing racist agendas.

    I'm extremely proud of T.I., Jay Z, and Lebron for consistently putting their businesses in jeopardy by standing up for social justice.

    Welp, you werent paying attention. The customers also offered to split the group up into 2 groups of 4 & 3. The restaurant STILL refused to sit them. Thats discrimination. They had seats but chose not to serve those folks. Thats too bad because the Houston's in Houston is FIRE smh

    Those places are trying to have a nice calm vibe ...

    that was there policy ...the black waitress had to go by it to make sure she keeps her job

    I don't see discrimination ... if they bend the rules for 1 they have to bend for all

    Explain, there are pictures of groups of 7 plus white people sitting together. The dress code policy that they try to enforce is extremely vague, but is never enforced for white people.
