Modesto Chevron Protest

Declining to serve military personnel was the crux behind the protest today at the Chevron station at the corner of Sisk and Palendale in Modesto, CA.

On 7-23-12 an off duty Paramedic and Air Force reservist walked to the counter at the Chevron station with his purchase. When he pulled out his wallet his military id was exposed to the cashier. According to statements made by friends of veteran, the cashier - of Middle Eastern descent - told him that he would not serve his kind and that he believes that our people (US Military) should leave his country.

This sparked a facebook plea to all who support our military to boycott and protest the Chevron station.
