Re: Should a Bed and Breakfast Owner be allowed to refuse Gay couples on religous gro
First point, I am not a big fan of bigotry. Hating people for things they have no say in such as genetics or sexuality is not cool, it's disgraceful, and you miss out on opportunities to interact with great people.
Second point, while I hate bigotry I hate government intrusion just a tad more. I vehemently oppose private property rights(including licensed businesses) being trampled in the name of political agendas.
Third point, the market can speak louder than the law ever can.....somehow we've forgotten that. I will not do business with bigots, and I make it known. If people would simply inform these owners in large numbers that their behavior is unacceptable for the purposes of doing business, tunes change pretty quickly.......or owners change. Either way, bigotry gets ended without getting some G-damned government official involved.
That's just my 2 cents.
