CHELSEA — A taxi driver must pay a lesbian couple $10,000 for telling them to either stop smooching in the backseat of his cab or kiss their ride goodbye, a city administrative judge ruled last month.

Yellow cab hack Mohammed Dahbi was accused of discriminating against the couple over their sexual orientation by ordering them to "keep that [behavior] for the bedroom or get out of the cab." Dahbi also gave the passengers, Christy Spitzer and Kassie Thornton, some lip, calling them "b-----s," "c---s" and "whores" when they got out of the cab without paying, according to Judge John Spooner's decision.

Would a cabbie be required to watch heterosexuals makeout in his cab?

[Veto!]

Both times I saw lesbians kissing, I got sick to my stomach. Daughter was with me one of those times and she almost lost her very expensive lunch.

It’s really an unnatural thing to watch, and your stomach knows it.

[Jim Robinson]

Corrupt judge should be impeached.

Homosexuals vs. Muslims? Where will Dear Leader fall on this issue?

[manc]

So all you muslim leaders who thought this was just about Christians when it comes to homosexuals should wake up now.

The religious freedom laws the very laws the country was founded on, not homosexuality should be enforced and if not then millions from all faiths should be out on the streets protesting.

[Chode]

was this recorded or a she said he said???

[BeadCounter]

My reaction would be to stop the cab and ask them to leave. That’s what I think, cab fare or not.

They did make the muzzies taxi people with booze when they tried to deny it.

[SunkenCiv]

The driver is a muzzie -- had he not been, "RIGHT WING WHITE HOMOPHOBIC RELIGIOUS BIGOT" would have been in the headline.

[TigerClaws]

They women were given greater rights than heterosexuals doing the same thing.

$10k to these ladies. $100k for the bakery lady.

I wonder if the homos didn’t get the memo that messing with the Muzzies is not a growth industry...

[Steve_Seattle]

$10,000? Yeah, that really fits the crime. /sarc The cabbie was in his rights to tell the women to stop making out in the car, but should have stopped short of the insults. If this is worth a fine at all, maybe $50, not $10,000.

But I don't even know about the $50; is it now a crime - punishable by a fine of ANY amount - to insult someone in your own place of business? This just goes to show - again - how utterly fascist the gay rights movement has become.

[DoughtyOne]

“LEFT WING ISLAMIC HOMOPHOBIC RELIGIOUS BIGOT” should have been in the headline.

LOL

[wjcsux]

This ought to get interesting. Lesbos vs Muzzies!

[PetroniusMaximus]

“The women testified at the trial that, at West 15th Street in the MEATPACKING DISTRICT, the cabbie told them to stop kissing and “save that behavior for the bedroom.”

Apparently they were in the wrong neighborhood.

[Paperpusher]

He didn’t start the insults until they got out of the cab without paying, according to the article.

[CountryClassSF]

So, essentially, the judge basically declared it a civil right to engage in a tawdry act in someone else’s vehicle.

Any time a homosexual is told to behave decently in public, I guess now we all have to worry about being sued.

“they got out of the cab without paying,”

So, THEFT of SERVICES, and the VICTIM winds up paying a fine?! The lesbo’s should be in JAIL! That’s where “Cletus Jackson” would be if he did not pay a cabbie! Think about it....
