Cousins Were Almost Denied Service After Rally Because They Support Trump

A Virginia woman said she is being discriminated against for her support of Donald Trump.

After attending a Trump rally in Richmond, Virgina on June 10, Shannon Riggs said she and her cousins visited a local Cook Out, a Southen burger chain.

According to WTVR, Riggs said she and her family walked up to the window dressed in Trump garb and they were reportedly denied service.

“As soon as we got to the window, someone inside said ‘Hell no! I’m not serving them,'” Riggs told WTVR.

“You should not be discriminated based on who you support, whether it be Bernie, Hillary or Mr. Trump,” Riggs said.

The employees continued laughing, and that’s when Riggs canceled her order and asked for the phone number to corporate. Riggs then received a full refund for her order.

“Once you witness [discrimination] first hand, it’s a totally different experience,” said 16-year-old Lauren Wolfrey, Riggs’ cousin. “I was in a state of shock.

A Cook Out spokesperson issued the following statement:

Cook Out is, and always has been, a politically neutral company. We welcome all customers regardless of political affiliation.

Regarding the refusal of service at our Colonial Heights location, the situation has been resolved and was resolved that night per Cook Out policy.
