Chili's Grill and Bar advertised free Veterans Day meals for service members. But not for black U.S. Army veteran Ernest Walker and his service dog Barack.

For his free meal on Veterans Day, Ernest Walker picked the Chili’s Grill and Bar in Cedar Hill tells Dallas News. The 47-year-old sat at a table and ordered a burger while his service dog Barack waited by his side. In a widely shared facebook post we can find that happened next:

So far Chili’s has not issued word on what, if anything, will happen to the manager, but Walker says he needs to be ‘reprimanded or fired.’ This is the only fair treatment for people who hate their protectors because of the color of the skin. Veterans Day is the holiday which reminds us about veterans deeds, but we must respect them every single day in a year.

Even after showing him his military ID, he still refuses? I can't believe this mess. This manager needs to get fired at once and I hope he gets blacklisted! 

I don't actually hate PI

Uh, because he was just discriminated against and had his food taken away from him and embarrassed in public for no reason?

Because he was discriminated against. If someone has a service dog  you're suppose to just leave it as that. I'm assuming the dog is a certified trained dog so I doubt it was causing any chaos so why did this lovely manager tell him to leave then have the audacity to tell him not to yell or get upset whole provoking him the whole time. How're you going to deny someone of something when they have the proof right in front of you and you're not even willing to look at it but assuming instead.  :awkney:

Because there was physical intimidation and contact. You never know how these situations are going to escalate, even with someone who is manager of a restaurant. You never know what people are going to do.
