Man Asked to Leave Texas Café Over Anti-Trump Shirt. In 2018, Andy Ternay was asked to leave First Watch café in Richardson, Texas, after customers complained about his shirt, which displayed anti-Trump and anti-alt-right messages with explicit language. Ternay later shared the experience on Facebook, saying he wore the shirt to show solidarity with marginalized groups.
Though he received support from some staff and patrons, the restaurant defended its decision, citing concerns from families with children. Ternay was met by police outside but cited free speech rights and left without incident. His post went viral, drawing attention to issues of privilege, protest, and racial solidarity.
