In the wake of a media firestorm raging against the Christian owners of a bridal shop who refused to supply wedding dresses for lesbian brides, the town of Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania is debating a possible law on whether shop owners have a right to refuse business to customers.
Breitbart News reported last month that when Victoria and Thomas Miller, owners of the W.W. Bridal Boutique in Bloomsburg refused to provide wedding dresses to lesbian brides because of their religious beliefs, they were bullied on social media and their website had been hacked to suggest their store had closed under pressure from same-sex marriage supporters.

Subsequent to Breitbart News report, CNS News.com identified G. Andrea Shay as the woman who called W.W. Bridal Boutique to schedule an appointment to order two wedding dresses as well as dresses for the groomsmen.
CNS News.com reports:
I was put on hold for about 5 minutes so the lady could get her appointment book. She took me off hold and said unfortunately she would not be able to schedule an appointment for us because they currently do not service same sex couples and its just not something they do, Shay reportedly said in a Facebook post.
Calling the shop strange and rude, she added:
My husband and I tried to give W. W. Bridal our business, but when the management found out that we needed to order a wedding gown for my husband, and dresses for the groomsmen, they would not allow us to order from them claiming that such a thing would Break God's Law.(continued)

Time for businesses to move out of the gay havens and let them rot
“dresses for the groomsmen”
D-uh, duhhh, duh—dresses?
Unfortunately the “gay havens” keep spreading. The places you can go to avoid this crap keeps growing smaller and smaller.

Is there a Freeper alive who will not declare now that homosexuals are certifiably insane?
Just follow your conscience.
This country reminds me so much of pre-WWII Germany that it isn’t even funny. The fags ruled in pre-war Germany much like they are ruling America now.
I guess we need a list of who all it is ok to refuse service to.
I legally carry a firearm but it’s legal for people to discriminate against me. They are even allowed to post signs announcing their hatred.
Let the religious persecutions begin! No longer are we a country that has freedom of Religion! We are going the way of early Communist China and Russia. And Russia and China are becoming more Christian.
Homosexuals need to change definitions in order to live with their perversion that eats
at their soul everyday because they know deep down it's not normal.
It's a coping mechanism.
Forcing me to affirmatively participate in another person’s delusion will not cure their mental illness.
See my profile page and check under the Nazi section. We might have beat the Nazis in the short term but not the long.
Just as the walls in Nazi Germany went up, so ours have started.

I must control my anger when it comes to these filthy degenerates
Nice comment.
Just wait until the IRS starts yanking the tax-exempt status of churches that won’t perform ‘gay marriages.’
That’s coming.
They’ll argue it’s analogous to interracial marriage (it isn’t) and destroy any church or denomination that actually follows the Bible.
I agree.
i guess i can walk into any business that says no guns and they will be unable to refuse service.
i guess i can go into the nicest restaurants shirtless and shoeless and they will be unable to refuse service.
i guess i can go into curves to work out and they won’t be able to deny me service.
i hope they do pass that law and see how it backfires.
What I’m looking forward to is what the legalization of polygamy (how could they block it?) will do when it becomes law. Who do you think would be liable to homeschool more than any other family? Who will be more religious? What arrangement lends itself more to a family business?
The National Socialists never went away. The EU, TC, CFR, NAFTA and many more organizations are Nazi to their core. We’d never have gone to the Moon without help from Nazi scientists. It goes on and on.
