[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1328065, member: 239"] Why? Are you a hero by the real definition of the word? Have you risked your life in the service of your country on a daily basis, seen your friends maimed and/or killed, had your entire life impacted by that service? If yes then absolutely the restaurant should make an exception for you too. Like I said we don't live in a digital universe where everything is an absolute, yes or no, black or white and never the twain shall meet. Personally I like choice and being able to make exceptions based on circumstance. With out that we might as well all just surrender to the Borg and get those computer chips implanted in our heads for that is what we'd be if we lived in a world of [I]rules are rules [/I]with no exceptions ever made[I].[/I] Question: How many of y'all here taking the no exceptions stance excoriate Zero Tolerance in our schools when a child is suspended because he drew a picture of a police officer with a gun or pointed his finger at a playmate during recess and said bang? Really? Who among you? [/QUOTE]
