No Pizza For You!
Aage Bjerre is a Danish pizza maker who stands for what he believes in, and won't back down. Even at the cost of losing a job. I first read the headline, and thought," man, you could have a lot of fun with this." After reading the article, all I can say is that I'm impressed with the man. He's refused to serve French and German tourists because he says they are anti-American. He was fined for discrimination, but chose to serve 8 days prison time instead. That was last year.
This year, at a different restaurant, in a new location, he did it again. And it cost him his job.
We can say "Bravo, way to take a stand!" And we should. But think about this; he is not even an American, and he's taking a stand for us.
Some may think he's doing this for attention, and may make more money in the long run. I don't know. I doubt it. How much money will he make selling pro-US t-shirts online? In Europe? Most of his buyer will probably have to be American. I do have an idea for his shirts. Remember the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld? NO PIZZA FOR YOU!!!
