Gay coffee shop owner kicks Christians out and goes on offensive rant
American Thinker ^ | 10/07/2017 | Rick Moran

A gay coffee shop owner in Seattle decided to kick out a group of Christian anti-abortion protesters, going on an expletive-laden, extremely offensive rant that was recorded and posted on Facebook.

The group, Abolish Human Abortion, appeared not to be bothering anyone.  They weren't in the shop to proselytize or hand out literature.  They just wanted a cup of coffee.

What they got was an obscene, even blasphemous rant from an unbalanced store owner.

Daily Caller:

The owner heatedly tells the Christians to leave his shop immediately in a video posted to Facebook by Abolish Human Abortion, Christian group seeking to end the practice of abortion.

"I'm gay, you have to leave," the owner tells the group. "This is offensive to me. I own the place. I have the right to be offended."

The group tried to explain that they hadn't placed any in the shop, but the owner repeatedly told them to"shut up."

"There's nothing you can say. This is you and I don't want these people in this place," the owner says. The group asks why he can't tolerate their presence, prompting the owner to ask them if they would watch him have sex [sic] with his boyfriend.

"Can you tolerate my presence? Really? If I go get my boyfriend and f--- him in the a-- right here you're going to tolerate that? Are you going to tolerate it?" the owner asked. "Answer my f------ question! No, you're going to sit right here and f------ watch it! Leave all of you! Tell all your f------ friends don't come here!"

The group gets up to leave, as one woman among them says, "just know that Christ can save you

Where’s Washington State’s attorney general who prosecutes Christian conservatives for their views? Silence.

I hope they sue him. According to the Christian baker judgment no one has the right to turn away business because they don’t like someone’s beliefs.

Actually I hope they don't sue him, and I hope this sets a precedent that you really can refuse service to anyone you want, because... freedom.

That way, this guy can be a jerk all he wants and we don't have to go to his store, and a Christian baker can refuse to make cakes for a gay wedding, and that's cool too. Freedom is awesome; I'm a big fan.

I know this for sure... this jerkwad is going to lose a lot of business, but since this is Seattle after all, he'll probably get some new customers who think what he did was "fabulous". Fortunately those kinds of things tend to be a temporary spike and he'll probably close shop in a year. After all, I don't think this is atypical of his customer service philosophy...

Homosexuals are the vilest people on the planet.

We'll differ there. Last I knew, they weren't driving planes full of people into buildings.

You don't set a precedent that will be followed by leftists by caving in to them. The way to get public accommodations laws repealed is by making them as offensive to the left as they are to the right. Let the state bankrupt this homosexual hatemonger and drive him out of business.

Sorry, if Christians have to bake the cake, you’ve got to serve the coffee...

I'd leave right then and there. Who in his right mind would want to watch some unhinged, panting, slobbering alternate-lifestyler go at it with his boyfriend?

The Christians should have thanked him for the "heads up" and immediately left. Period.

You were expecting fairness? Doesn’t work that way. Since the left’s goal is to eliminate Christianity, Christians will be harassed, hounded, persecuted, fined and thrown in jail for their words and/or actions, while the spoiled, protected minorities do whatever the hell they want and get away with it.

Yup, always was, and as can be evidenced by the ubiquitous psychotherapy professional required by each one. Normal people don't need/won't spend the money on shrinks.

But of course, the queer lobby has pushed hard to secure legislation mandating mental-health coverage, and "pre-existing conditions" coverage (for AIDS and other queer diseases) in you health insurance package....thus skyrocketing everyone's premiums.

No, they're just raping your boys and destroying every bit of traditional American culture, from the Boy Scouts to the Catholic Church, from the military to "education" and everything in between.

Just ask your kid/grandkids what they think of LGBTqueer. Next thing you know, your granddaughter will be introducing you to her "wife".

Seeing how it’s in Seattle, this probably won’t hurt his business, but the same law used to persecute the baker and florist should apply to him.

The baker and florist cases are predicted solely on state law. A much more powerful law comes into play here: Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits places of public accommodation (including restaurants) from discrimination based upon religious beliefs.

These blasphemers in Seattle would do well to remember that they have box seats in the ‘Ring of Fire’...subject to earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanic activity.

Every homosexuals I have met, worked with, etc has been a disgusting, vile drama queen. The women are purely vile, and disgusting, the men act like drama queens, and overwork themselves to be a female. All of them are perverts with a daddy issue in the past.
