Sally Krantz, owner of Saffron Colonial, told us she isn't a racist and she doesn't understand the backlash, saying: "I'm not trying to incense anybody. I'm just trying to make food." She added, "The people who own the Rheinlander aren't promoting Nazism, and the people who own the Screen Door aren't promoting slavery."
You don't have to understand the backlash.  Just understand that some people are complete idiots just looking for something to get upset about.  Ignore them and move on.  You can't make everyone happy.

Now that I reread that, I'm quite surprised that they haven't gone after the kraut restaurants and delis with accusations of Nazism.

Though I'll invade Portland if the SJWs try and keep me from my rouladen and jagdwurst.

I'm finding more and more use for this quote:

"Mental toughness is to physical as four is to one." --Bobby Knight

P.S.  (Observation) Those kids are just practicing to destroy other, bigger things with innuendo and semantic loading.

Like predators, they train with the weakest and smallest prey --using these techniques to wreck a small business.  Just for practice.

WHATEVER YOUR DEFINITION OF "INFRINGE " IS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT.
