What really bothers me about the actions of the restaurant owner AND her gay employees is that for many years gays have worked for equal acceptance with the 'straight' community, and most of the population accepts gays for what they are and make no distinction. I certainly wouldn't boycott a restaurant that employs gays as chefs or waiters/waitresses, so by what right did that owner AND her gay employees feel that it was within their rights to kick someone out of the restaurant on the basis of who they were employed by? That stunt was one of most hypocritical actions that I've run across. No one was EVER asked to leave a restaurant owned by a Conservative simply because the customer's political beliefs were not aligned with the Right OR because they were gay. It is people like this restaurant owner who are deepening a political divide that will lead to Civil War, only this time it won't be North and South with lines drawn, it will be neighbors, friends and family.

"No one was EVER asked to leave a restaurant owned by a Conservative simply because the customer's political beliefs were not aligned with the Right OR because they were gay."

Mmm, look up Colorado wedding cake bakery case. How soon we forget. While not a restaurant, it's still a denial of service based on sexual orientation.

It was not his political actions, it was based on religious beliefs. And the SPOTUS found in favor of the shop owner.

If we allow "religious beliefs" to absolve criminal acts over a cake in Colorado, do we not start finding that jihadists should be protected as well?

We are moving rapidly towards the chaos of the insanity of the tweet world where twitchy fingers replace our better senses.

What was the criminal act over a cake in Colorado? As far as protection of jihadist is concerned, Barry O already took care of that. Thankfully that is coming to and end.

I hope they stay closed and business suffers. The employees were “uncomfortable” so they turned away a customer because of political affiliation. That is just so stupid and those employees must have the mentality of junior high kids. How very lib f*****t democrat of them. What a bunch of sissies.

WRONG. In 2012 the owner of Crumb and Get It said that Biden was not welcome in his store because of political differences, THEN Paul Ryan invited the owner to a campaign event to introduce him as a hero for turning down Biden.

WRONG AGAIN. You seriously are going to expect us to believe your lying bulls**t that no conservative business owner has refused service to a gay person? HAHAHAHAHA! You are fucking delusional!

Learn some damn FACTS for once in your life!

"SPOTUS" is not a thing, stop making up acronyms to sound smart.
