    Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.

    What do Texaco themselves say about this, as the man in the video reports this has happened twice at Texaco stations in the state?

      Not only was that one helluva fucking ignorant & annoying hick (that accent made me want to pierce my eardrums), it likely didn't even happen.

      Before you get all butt-hurt about something, try for a little verification.

        hmm...can't say muslimism is high up on my favored religion list...but neither is red-neckism.

        Non-US-Soldiers only served at that gas station?

        Reminds me of a few other things:

        1. Whites only establishment (replace "establishment" with any store, theatre, dance club, restaurant, church, bathroom, water fountain, school, or gas station)

        2. Heteros only (when talking about gay marriage and gay rights)

        3. Men only and at one point white men only (when referring to voter's rights)

        4. Hell while we're at it...No Shirts, No Shoes, No Service! Well fuck you! If I want to be a nudist or run around in my underwear because it's 101 degrees out GD'it, then I will do so!

        Ooooh, I could go on and on but I made my point...

          This is why I try to check things on my own before saying whether something is right or wrong. I would have thought something like this would have been plastered across Fox news in minuets!!!

          Just doing a quick Google search shows that the only people who are talking about it appear to be the type of sites far right conservatives and militias would look at. No news service including who I think the local stations would be have reported it.

            Doesn't seem likely, but it wouldn't surprise me for most of the mainstream media to avoid something like this considering how far left they generally lean.

            On the other hand, it is still America - if the station owner doesn't want to serve a soldier that's their option - just as it's an option for the rest of us to boycott the station, set up a picket line and drive them out of business.

              Jesus H. Christ, you've got to be kidding me. If this were real, Faux News would be creaming their panties.

                  I wonder how long until they torch the building.
