Gay Couple Told Not To Return To East Texas Restaurant

A couple says they were told not to come back to a restaurant in East Texas because they’re gay.

In the town of Pittsburg, Texas, Big Earl’s Bait House and Country Store is an institution. So Collin Dewberry and his partner Kelley decided to have breakfast there. He says everything seemed to be going fine until they paid their check and were approached by their waitress on the way out.

“She told them the rules are on the door and it says ‘Welcome to Big Earl’s where men act like men, women act like ladies, no saggy pants and we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.’”

“And so I laughed and I asked what do you mean?” says Dewberry. “And that’s when she said to us… ‘to put it plainly, we don’t serve fags here.’”

Big Earl Cheney, the owner,says the reason Dewberry and his partner were asked not to return was because of their actions.

“What I saw was one of them half way under the table with his legs stretched out into the other guy’s lap. And he kind of looked really possum eyed at me as they say it in East Texas, he kind of looked at me like ‘uh-oh’.”

Cheney says he refuses to admit the couple back into his restaurant.

He continued, “I’m not gonna have people coming in here with their butt showing; I’m not gonna have people coming in here naked; I’m not gonna have people coming in here having sex on the tables.”

Dewberry maintains they were doing nothing wrong and were discriminated against.

“Nobody deserves to be treated disrespectfully at an establishment that just seconds ago accepted their money.”

Big Earl’s Bait House and Country Store just lost its chance to become our nation’s first LGBT historical site.

They could have said to the queers, “This establishment is not called Big Earl’s Butt House and Country Store, so get out, we don’t condone that evil lifestyle”. End of discussion.

“90% of heterosexual couples do things in this day and age that you would, no doubt, construe as “disgusting” and can transmit diseases.”

I know that. Still, 90% of heterosexual couples do not have AIDS. The ick that resides in a poop chute, the homosexuals’ favorite oriface, contains potentially deadly pathogens that infect the bloodstream and other fluids. Although sharing can be a good thing, that’s not the case in this instance.

My dear MayflowerMadam: 90% of Heterosexuals do not have AIDS; true. But, 90% of Homosexuals do not have AIDS either. In the U.S., 62% of AIDS victims are Homosexual and 38% are Heterosexual. Also, are you aware that this younger generation of Heterosexuals practice Anal Sex?
