Hotel Denies Room to British Soldier
When Corporal Tomos Stringer traveled to Woking, Surrey to help with funeral preparations for a friend killed in action, he planned on staying at the Metro Hotel. However, after hotel staff learned he's a soldier, he was told it was company policy not to accept members of the Armed Forces as guests. He was forced to bed down with his injured wrist (broken during a convoy ambush) in his tiny two-door car.
At least moonbattery isn't so far advanced that there wasn't an explosion of outrage. In response, hotel reps first tried silence, then starting bleating out of both sides of their mouths about how the receptionist had made a mistake, but that there had been "some rather serious incidents" involving soldiers at the hotel.
Cpl Stringer is back in Afghanistan getting shot at by terrorists, but his mother Gaynor Stringer was on hand to observe:
It's discrimination. They would never get away with it if it was against someone of ethnic origin.
This is because discrimination is only incorrect when it is against groups favored by liberals — this obviously doesn't include those who fight to preserve our freedoms.
On tips from V the K and Viking04.

Yeah, but did you see the public backlash??? The Brits may be going politically insane, but there is still great support for the military. They're really tearing this hotel and it's corporate owners a new one. The pressure got so great the corporats came out with a public apology... sort of. We even had some Americans weigh in that if any of their vets and actives come here he'll pay their room for them.
Hey libtards, this is not Viet Nam!

We should have let dem Natzees stomp around during Dubya Dubya Two for a few years and kill half dem Brits before saving them. Maybe that way they would act like such assclowns.

The Krauts DID capture some of the channel islands. Read "It Happened Here".

Rudyard Kipling commented on this in 1892 (http://faxmentis.org/html/kipling.html).
