This Racist Couple Didn't Leave a Tip Because They "Only Tip Citizens"
The word "citizen" has been injected with new meaning since the ascendancy of Donald Trump and his promises to build a wall-a great wall, it's gonna be so great-and kick all illegal immigrants out of the country.
In the wake of his hateful rhetoric, "not a citizen" has become a catch-all for any person who looks vaguely non-white. And now, apparently, it's also an excuse to be a cheap ass and not tip a waitress.
A couple dining at Jess' Lunch in Harrisonburg, Virginia, stiffed their waitress, 18-year-old Sadie Elledge, because she is Latina. Elledge, who was born in America and is a citizen, showed the receipt to her grandfather who posted it on Facebook. From there, it went viral.
"I was born here but I'm Mexican and Honduran," Elledge told WHSV, but the cheapskate couple never even spoke with Elledge. "They wouldn't talk to me. They would just nod their heads," she said.
It's ironic. Anti-immigrant voters are always whining about how people come here illegally to steal jobs and government benefits from citizens. Meanwhile, they're the ones greedily stiffing a hardworking citizen.
God bless America.
