    No because that's racist, which is against the law. Royal Marines aren't a race (although some would like to believe they were)
    Give a man a fish and he'll feed his family for a day,
    teach a man to fish and he'll sit round on a boat all day drinking beer.

    I think that one is racism as well.

    Basically, if they don't want forces people allowed in, there's nothing you can do about that other than take your custom elsewhere.
