Avatar Star Laz Alonso Accuses On The Border Restaurant at LA Airport of Racism

Avatar star Laz Alonso accuses restaurant at Los Angeles International Airport of racism, for refusing to serve him.

Avatar star Laz Alonso has accused an On The Border Mexican restaurant located at Los Angeles International Airport of racism, after he said he was refused service on Saturday morning. He took to the Twitter to let his anger be known and called for a boycott of the restaurant chain:

He Tweeted: “I was just refused food at "On The Border" at terminal 4 at LAX because my divers license expired. But the airline & security let's me fly?”

Then, a friend replied: “DO NOT EAT @ ON THE BORDER PLEASE BOYCOTT !!!! THE EMPLOYEE ARE RACIST PLEASE RT...KEEP IT GOING !!!”

It is ironic that he was able to clear airport security with the expired license with no problems, but was not served at the restaurant. Laz claims he was just ordering food, therefore, an ID should not have been requested. The restaurant manager, Ralph Shen, told RadarOnline that "we check everybody’s ID when they order drinks, it is the California law.” Either Laz Alonso attempted to order alcoholic beverages and was denied or there was some type of misunderstanding. I find it hard to believe that the restaurant could be so blatantly racist in such a busy place, that's usually very ethnically diverse.
