[quote:EE 73229834:MV8zNzUzNDIzXzY3MjE2NjY4XzhCQTIwRjAy] [quote:Zuzu:MV8zNzUzNDIzXzY3MjA3NzM1X0M3QUEzMTg=] This looks to be the original story. [b]Soldier unhappy with service at 7-Eleven[/b] [i] "A local soldier, whose story sparked a firestorm of nationwide anger on social media, says a Redmond convenience store clerk denied him service, after he showed his military ID."[/i] 7-Eleven's response: [i]"It's clear that a misunderstanding occurred at a franchised 7-Eleven store. We understand that a customer presented a military ID as a form of identification when buying age-restricted products, and the Franchisee’s store associate could not clearly read the birth date. In this instance, the store associate, by law, was required to ask to see a second form of ID with a birthdate. After the customer's age was verified, the transaction was completed. Serving members of the military, being named a top military-friendly company and employing military veterans are great honors for 7-Eleven.” [/i] http://www.kiro7.com/news/soldier-denied-service-7-eleven/28738009 _________________________________________________________ In response to the official statement the soldier requested that 7-eleven view the stores video to support his version of events. [/quote] ..NICE LAWSUIT! [/quote]
Original Message
Okay y'all I realize that this is older news but I just became aware of it and wanted to share. I rarely go use 7-eleven but as of now I'll be avoiding it all together.

“She said, 'You're in the military?' I said, 'Yes,'” Brown told KIRO. “She said, 'I can't serve you.' Honestly, I was in shock. I asked, 'Are you serious?' She looked at me like she was offended."
