Mr Jones, from Holyhead, said his religion dictated that he should wear the hood in public places and is considering legal action against the chain. You gotta be kidding me...

As long as they don't admit klingons...

Urgh those kind of fanboys sicken me,get a life & grow up a bit you virgin

and left 'emotionally humiliated' by the supermarket in Bangor, North Wales. There is no emotion, there is calm. There is no passion there is serenity. There. It's right there in the Jedi Code. So in other words, get over it. Shoulda used the Jedi Mind Trick "You don't want me to remove my hood..."

seems like this is a security/anti-shoplifting policy the grocery chain has and it makes perfect sense. this guy is playing the victim over something so trivial and petty that it's ridiculous to even consider. i doubt that they are only making jedis remove their hoods.

I think its standard to not be able to wear any clothing that conceals your face in most stores. If he wore that inside a bank he would have been arrested or even shot. Even baggy clothes and backpacks arent allowed in. Next time dress like a priest like I do. I never have any problems, even at hospitals.

This is all a ploy. He's a motherfucking Sith! I've seen this sort of well-telegraphed. wholly predictable ploy before by them (and paid $9.50 to do so). It wasn't worth my attention (or $9.50) then, and it isn't now.

You gotta be kidding me... He's gotta be. In order to constitute religious discrimination it has to be a universally recognized one. Now everyone knows start wars kicks ass but I don't think they rise to quite that level yet.

[SRP76]

Makes me want to be a Star Wars fan. Yup...

[MikePizzoff]

He's gotta be. In order to constitute religious discrimination it has to be a universally recognized one. Actually he's not kidding because apparently Jedi has recently been recognized as a religion in the UK...

[Danny]

Actually he's not kidding because apparently Jedi has recently been recognized as a religion in the UK... is it any weirder than xenu and thetans though?

It wasn't worth my attention (or $9.50) then, and it isn't now. Goood...my plans for retail domination are almost com-plete! Once we claim religious discrimination we can sue their asses off! Then my new chain of Palp-co stores will be the most powerful retail establishment in the galaxy! Heheheheh!

Yoda would have kicked your crazy ass right out of Padawan school, you moron. Best quote of the article
