An engaged couple in Missouri say they’re shocked and saddened after a restaurant in St. Charles County refused to host their rehearsal dinner upon learning they were in a same-sex relationship.
Kendall Brown told KMOV she had reached out to Madison’s Café in O’Fallon about booking dinner ahead of her wedding to Mindy Rackley on June 15, but claims she was told the restaurant couldn’t “condone” the brides-to-be’s nuptials.
“It just saddens me. I could not believe that really happened to us,” Rackley told KMOV. “I could not believe that still really happens in this world today.”
According to Brown, a woman on the other end of the line was willing to make dinner reservations for the group, but changed her mind upon asking for the “groom’s name” and learning there wouldn’t be one.
“She said, 'Your spouse is a woman?’” Brown said. “I said yes. And she said, ‘I’m sorry we are going to defer you to someone else because we don’t condone that kind of relationship.”
Brown said the woman also told her she was in an “unhealthy relationship.” Rackley added that she was appalled by the woman's comments, which made her feel “less than human."(snip)
Missouri’s Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination based on sex and race, but not specifically sexual orientation, Yahoo notes. But Fox 2 contacted the city of O’Fallon for clarification, and officials said a municipal code may have been violated.(snip)
Brown added that she has no ill-will toward the restaurant, despite the disappointing turn of events.
“They’re human too.”

Amen to that.
I bet the new Furrburgers down the street would welcome their business.
ROTFLOL
Lesbianism is not the norm, it is the minority,
= = =
Well, you know all women really want to be lesbians, so that is about 50%.
And all men want to be trans, so that is another 50%.
And that adds up to . . . 100%!
Fine. Find another restaurant.
I’ve only seen that clip from the movie in the last 3 months or so. It’s the most I’ve ever seen from the movie.
LOL
Slightly off-topic but I swear I saw a GE Appliances ad about 3 a.m. this morning.
Starts with “Pop” making dinner and talking to what appears to be his daughter (who is on her cell phone) when “Dad” comes in from the right side of the frame.
Really, GE Appliances?
Maybe I misunderstood the 30-second ad. I’m on allergy OTC medicine, so.....
I rewound it like 9 times in a row just in case the cough syrup was getting to me. Still, maybe I misunderstood?
The slide into the pit of Hell continues at an accelerated pace. Or so it seemed.
I’ve seen several corporate websites, that have “rainbowed” their corporate logos.
I think it’s safe to say the one in blue
will be the piston with the one in white
the cylinder, with dance-leading going to
the piston. Of course, this is optional
on Sadie Hawkins Day.
Uh, so???
U g l y
But there is a groom! not very well groomed, but that’s not a woman!
Trans lesbians?
Mentally ill on parade! Where is a closet when one is needed?
These people are phony ‘victims’ 24/7. Me! Me! Me! Me! Me!
Find another place to hold your rehearsal dinner and get on with your ridiculous little lives!
I believe it. I guess GE Appliances has gone all Barack-virtue-signaling.
I’d give them a dinner they and their guests would not soon forget.
