Noodles and Company Denies Service to Alexandria Cop in Uniform--Shame

How much longer can we expect our police to in essence suck it up?

When too often the doors to public meals are shut

Noodles and Company in Alexandria refused to a female cop in uniform serve

A slap in the face to those who put their lives on the line to protect and serve

The Civil Rights Act prevents discrimination at the lunch counter due to the color of one’s skin

But not based on the color of one’s shirt which should also be a mortal sin

Remove the thin blue line and into anarchy we quickly descend

Noodles is just another example of an anti-cop disturbing trend

A simple question to the Noodles board and management team

Denied service why should the blue line respond when they hear the 911 screams?

Fire the chef and immediately to your diversity training this simple mandate assert

We serve with dignity all regardless of the color of their skin or the color of their shirt
