A restaurant owner  in California says he will no longer serve customers who wear “Make America Great Again” hats at his eatery.

“It hasn’t happened yet, but if you come to my restaurant wearing a MAGA cap, you aren’t getting served, same as if you come in wearing a swastika, white hood, or any other symbol of intolerance and hate,” J. Kenji López-Alt, who works as a chef-partner of the Wursthall restaurant in San Mateo, said in a tweet on Sunday.

Though the tweet was no longer accessible on Thursday, the newspaper reported that the post had garnered over 2,100 likes and 200 retweets as of Wednesday.

Update: The owner has since apologized and said patrons are welcome to wear whatever they like in his place.

Golly, I wonder what happened to change his mind? 

Note to business owners: take special care not to refuse service to half the U.S. population.
