I think the report must be fake. It states that the owner "he" said all of these things. what dude dislikes asian lesbians? What, does he also hate beer and football? Well..I guess there is a remote chance she could be fat..and that would be pretty nasty..but most asians are not fat. The post is probably fake.

Question 1. If the service was sooooo poor last time, where u only left a 4.00 tip, then why did you come back to the resturant again????
Question 2. I could give a rats butt if the owner decides he doesnt like Gay people. This is America, and last I checked everybody is entitled to their own opinons, Not just the Gays who want to force their lifestyle down our throats. Now I have a question, how did the owner o
Question 3. You refered to your partner as Korean also, but also refered to her as your wife. Per Wikipedia, Gay Marriages are not yet recognized in Flordia, so I think you err in refering to your sex partner as your wife. See below (per wikipedia)
Under current Florida law, same-sex marriages, civil unions, and domestic partnerships are not recognized.[1] Same-sex marriage and civil unions were constitutionally banned on November 6, 2008 with 62% of the vote.[2][3] In Florida, at least 60% of the population must approve a ballot measure for it to become the law.[4]
Looks like 62 pct of your population dont like Gays either.
In conclusion, waiters, and waitresses only make about 2.00 per hour, and they rely on tips (which by the way, they have to share with the cook staff, and the busboys, and hostesses). However The IRS has required all resturants to keep track of the total $$$ value of each meal ticket, and report that total amount to them, and the IRS Assumes that a 15PCT Tip was included. So in fact when you only gave 4.00 to the waitress on a 102.00 bil, the waitress only earned 4.00 but 15.00 was reported to the IRS in wages. So you stiffed her out of a lot more than just 11.00

I've almost entirely stopped going to places where they expect a tip. I can understand that the waiters make low wages and have no problem with tipping them a few dollars, but how is it that bringing your $50 steaks to you (which would take as much effort as a $5 salad) entitles them to an 18% tip I can never understand. Yes..they have bills to pay etc... thats why waiting tables is somthing that a person does to supplement their income while in school or trying to learn a more marketable skill..its not a life long career where a person should just "get" a good wage because they work hard. And yes, I know they work hard. Compensation is not about how hard a person works, it is about how much value they add and how easily they can be replaced. That is what motivates people to learn skills that allow them to add more value. When people learn skills that allow them to add more value it benefits our economy. This is why America became so prosperous, and why we are headed down the drain now because we pay to sustain people in low (or zero)productivity roles by supplementing their incomes (foodstamps, welfare etc) when if those programs did not exist, those people would be forced to develop skills that are sufficient to provide for themselves and their families. The cost of these programs is much more than just the amount paid to freeloaders...it is the amount paid to the freeloaders plus the excess productivity that the freeloader would contribute to the economy if forced to produce atleast as much wealth as they consume. (assuming of course that they would choose to do so..these days many of them would rather sit there with their hand out and starve than put in a honest days work.) Want to fix America? End all of these stupid programs for everyone who is not disabled to the point of being unable to provide for themselves (I'm talking no arms and no legs, or born retarded - not these fake little disabilities that people come up with to milk the system.)
