In New York, the court considered the lawsuit trumpet fan, who, because of the cap kicked out of the bar

In New York, the court rejected the claim of a man who was kicked out of a bar because of a cap.

Greg Piatek, a Philadelphia resident, went to a bar The happiest hourlocated in the West Village, however, not only did they not want to serve him, but soon they were expelled to the street. The reason for this was the cap of a man with Trump's campaign slogan "Make America Great Again".

The man considered this move as discrimination and sued the owner of the bar.

In court, Piatek claimed that 10 was January 2017 of the year, 10 days before Donald Trump’s inauguration, he and his friends went to a bar after a visit September 11 Memorial.

Lawyer Piateka claimed that the bar violated the laws of the city and state, prohibiting denial of service to people on the basis of religion. Piateka claimed that for him the cap reflected a “spiritual tribute” to the victims of 9 / 11.

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice David Cohen, after an 45 minute discussion, ruled against Piatek.

The bar's owner's lawyers argued that city and state law protects religious beliefs, not political ones, from discrimination.

"Supporting Trump is not a religion, whether you think it's very sincere, it's not," said Elizabeth Conway, who represented the bar The Happiest Hour.

Judge David Cohen, ultimately sided with the bar, was able to see in what happened only, as he himself described, “faint-heartedness” on the part of the bar owner.
