"I remember hearing a few years ago about Denny 's up North not serving to people of African decent. I boycotted for 3 years. I decided to go give it a try once I knew it was a franchise. I have since become addicted to the moons over my hammy sandwich. I decided to go after a long night with my best friend who had just returned from serving our country in Afghanistan. We had started talking about DADT and gay rights. We paid our bill and prepared to leave. I was the only one left in the restaurant. The only other customer (about 22 yo) started berating be about making him sick over his meal. I stood up for myself and reminded him that our constitution upholds the freedom of speech. He proceeded to inform me that he was friends with the Manager and stood behind him. I simply reminded the gentlemen that I was within my rights to have a private discussion about whatever I felt necessary. The manager told me that if I did not leave I would be escorted out by the police. He then intended to call the law. A friend of mine walked in (the one from Afghanistan) and pulled me out the door. The manager and my friend started to cuss at each other loudly. I was persuaded to leave the store not keeping my personal rights in mind. I feel as though this experience is my FIRST one that constitutes as a hate crime. I will not be returning, and I WILL be contacting the owner."
