No it isn't. The guy's a thug.
Forcing people to participate in a disgusting parody that is anathema to anyone except a deviant few is "civic duty"?
BS.
The price of citizenship is that Gay people must accept that not everyone accepts their chosen lifestyle. As long as the photographers are not persecuting them whose rights should be protected - those that actually exist such as freedom of association or those that are imagined by judges? This is not the same as serving food or renting an apartment but this is intimate contact being forced on the unwilling. That is a red line that should never be crossed.
