http://channels.netscape.com/ns/news/st ... tm&sc=1103 Pizza Owner Charged With Discrimination COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) - The owner of a Danish pizzeria who refused to serve German and French tourists was charged with discrimination Wednesday. Aage Bjerre, who owns a pizzeria on Denmark's Fanoe island, was investigated by police after he began refusing to serve tourists from Germany and France in February because of their countries' lack of support for the U.S.-led war in Iraq. He called them ``anti-American.'' No date for his trial was set, but if found guilty, he could be fined $735, said Esbjerg Deputy Chief Constable Steen Boejlund. Bjerre was unavailable for comment Wednesday, but in an interview with The Associated Press in February, he chided France and Germany for not supporting the United States. He displayed two homemade pictograms on the shop door, much like the ones that show the outline of a dog or a cigarette with a bar across it. One featured the silhouette of a man colored red, yellow and black - the colors of the German flag. The second was painted blue, white and red - the French Tricolor. Both silhouettes had a bar across each man. The island, 200 miles southwest of the capital, Copenhagen, is a popular spot for visitors from neighboring Germany. Of the approximately 100,000 tourists who come, some 60 percent are German. The others are mostly Scandinavians and Dutch. There are few French visitors to the island, which has a year-round population of 3,300. All the way... |
