No, I do not support a Hooters restaurant location in Fayetteville. Hooters restaurant does not represent the family values of Fayette County nor my personal Christian values.

It is sexually demeaning of women. If asked if I would want my two daughters working there, the answer is emphatically NO! When asked why, the answer is that I want my daughters valued, not demeaned.

Question: How many harassment lawsuits has Hooters had to settle in or out of court? I don't know the answer, but it would be interesting to know. Question: How many women have left Hooters quietly without filing any charges simply because they experienced a demeaning work environment? We may never know the answer, but the answer would be revealing!

The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders? They too demean women. While both Hooters and the cheerleaders are legally defended in the name of diversity and the Second Amendment [sic], community and personal values continue to be trashed in the “muck” of anything goes! What a tragic loss to our county, state, nation and world!

By the way, if you know any value that Hooters brings to our community other than their “legal right” to do business please, let me know. I'm curious.
