Things are getting serious now...

[Mikey]

"Conservative Christian" tow truck driver refuses to tow a woman who had been in an accident because she had Bernie stickers on her car.

I guess the Lord spoke to him - you'd think he'd be a Cruz guy...

"Something came over me, I think the Lord came to me, and he just said get in the truck and leave," Shupe told an ABC affiliate. "And when I got in my truck, you know, I was so proud, because I felt like I finally drew a line in the sand and stood up for what I believed."

Probably more intelligent than your run of the mill Trump guy, as evidenced by the fact that he advertised his phone # on Twitter...

Why a Trump-backing tow truck driver says he refused service to a Sanders supporter

Ken Shupe responded to a woman who was stranded on an interstate in North Carolina on Monday. Shupe is a tow truck driver; the woman had been involved in a wreck, according to reports.

But when Shupe arrived, he noticed something about the woman's car — specifically, he noticed that the woman was a supporter of Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, according to Fox Carolina.

"Every business dealing in recent history that I've had with a socialist-minded person, I haven't got paid," Shupe told the station.

He added: "Every time I've dealt with these people in recent history, I get 'Berned.'

"With an 'e,' not a 'u.' "

So Shupe refused to tow her.

"He said, 'I can’t tow you ... you’re a Bernie supporter,' " the woman, Cassandra McWade, told the Huffington Post. “I was like: ‘Wait, are you serious? You’re kidding me.’ ”

He wasn't.

Fox Carolina reported: "When he saw 'a bunch of Bernie Sanders stuff' he said he told the woman, 'very politely,' " that he could not "tow her car because she was 'obviously a socialist' and advised her to 'call the government' for a tow."

Attempts to reach Shupe by The Washington Post were unsuccessful Thursday morning.

"Something came over me, I think the Lord came to me, and he just said get in the truck and leave," Shupe told an ABC affiliate. "And when I got in my truck, you know, I was so proud, because I felt like I finally drew a line in the sand and stood up for what I believed."

According to Fox Carolina, Shupe identified himself as a conservative Christian who supports Donald Trump.

Shupe told the ABC station that he'd had "some horrible experiences in the last six months with towing cars for this mindset individuals," in which, he said, he hasn't received payment for services.

"They want to argue about a $50 tow bill, and it turns into just a drama and a fuss," he said, according to WLOS. "And I said, you know, I'm not going to associate with them, and I'm not going to do any business with them."

This is not the first time a statement of political support has seeped into a business deal this election.

In March, a Colorado landlord advertised a vacant apartment, but indicated in the listing that he wouldn't rent to Trump voters.

"I don’t know what to do anymore about what’s going on in this country," the landlord, Mark Holmes, told the Daily Sentinel, a newspaper in Grand Junction. "It’s just a mess."

The Daily Sentinel reported that at least one caller left a voicemail for Holmes, saying that his policy violated anti-discriminatory federal housing regulations.

A spokesman for the Department of Housing and Urban Development told the newspaper that wasn't the case.

"That has nothing to do with the Fair Housing Act," HUD spokesman Jerry Brown told the Daily Sentinel.

In all fairness, the guy is doing her a favor by preparing her for a world where everyone walks everywhere. Because once the US goes socialist, the planet is going back to the Dark Ages.

As opposed to the orgy of unregulated transnational Capitalism currently gutting and looting the nation? How's that working out for you?

Yea, because everybody getting health care and educational opportunity is what caused the Dark Ages.

Opposed to the healthcare and education nobody has access to now? This is the silliness that is the Left's argument-- that there were people who couldn't get access to healthcare prior to Obamacare and people held guns to the heads of high schoolers to make them go off to college and accrue thousands of dollars of debt.

That dude's business is going to catch on fire. Socialists are all lovey-dovey when it comes to paying for things for poor people using other people's money. But if you speak badly about them in a public forum, your business goes up in smoke.

that's going to happen on a national level sometime after the Dem convention where it will begin and later snowball when the powers that be in the GOP pull some last-minute shit to try and derail Trump. And I'm not talking about the laughable third party candidate ploy that will fail worse than Ross Perot did and only succeed at getting Shillary elected which is what the Rockefellers want to happen and are financing as we speak.

Mark it down... this country is fucked and it wouldn't surprise me if we get to or close to a without-rule-of-law scenario, if not an all out civil war. Something's going to give.

I must be nice to have so much business that you can afford to drive your tow truck out there, then see a sticker of a candidate you don't like, then simply refuse the tow......it's his business so will he start turning down people with a Clinton sticker on the car?

The politics of this country are seriously fucked up......

What does a tow truck driver's refusal to do business with a legitimate customer have to do with poor people wanting free stuff?

[MuchoBulls]

He couldn't have asked for the payment up front?

Yeah, nevermind the fact that he has the ladies car hooked up and it's going nowhere til he gets paid, still I think it's appropriate that he simply turned the job down :?

Dimbulb says what?

[Jay in Phoenix]

And that's in contrast to a party that has a guy that wants Hitler's way of controlling people, sounds like he has a cock in his mouth when he talks, is 74 years old and has $60k in credit card debt - along with a murdering psychopathic lying cunt - who's been suffering through strokes and insanity for years?

Sounds to me like both sides are fucked.

Couldn't agree more. Both sides are a joke and a mess.

You mean Free from some malignant transnational corporate plutocracy? Or at least a good escape attempt? Or what, you total fraud, are you okay with corporate socialism that pillages the people? Remind us again just how you dare to look in the mirror.
