Troubling report about Soulard restaurant/bar

A story titled "State Rep Experiences Racial Discrimination" has been published on http://www.pubdef.net. The story reports that State Representative Rodney R. Hubbard, his brother and a local businessman received an unexpected reception on March 19 at Johnny's Restaurant and Bar, 1017 Russell in Soulard. Following is a quote from the story: "Shortly after their arrival, they became the victims of racially-charged threats by two male patrons who told them that they were in a 'white bar' and [were] unwelcome."

We do not know what to make of this.
