Indiana Pizzeria Owners Say They’d Deny LGBT People Service – And Yelp Commenters Weren’t Having It
Buzzfeed ^ | 4/1/2015 | Mary Ann Georgantopoulos

The owners of a small pizzeria in Indiana were seemingly the first business to say they would publicly deny service to LGBT couples in the wake of Indiana’s new and controversial Religious Freedom Law.

Shortly after Memories Pizza owners agreed in a local newscast that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act allows them to deny service to LGBT people who wanted their pizza at a same-sex wedding, 1-star Yelp reviews rolled in denouncing the business.

Liberal judges.......and that ******* Reid scored the nuclear option so Obama could pack the Courts with as many hard core Leftists as possible before the Dems lost control of the Senate. Laws? Dems don’t need to follow no stinkin’ Laws! ‘Ethically challenged’ Dems have been ruling the country for far too long. That’s how this country came to be controlled by a coalition of Minority Special Interest groups. I call it ‘the Tyranny of the Minorities’. And we are much the worse off for it.

I will never understand how homosexuals, and liberals in general, came to have so much power in this country.

It only takes one or two disgruntled people to fill out hundreds of negative comments on a Yelp comments site.

They don’t. That’s just the preferred optic for the narrative.

They win because we are AFRAID of them. How many here back out of an argument with a raving lunatic left wing nut job, because you want to avoid the screaming? SCREAM BACK, or lose your right to speak.

I don’t understand it either. To be such a tiny minority of the population, they sure have a lot of power. I suppose they control the media and entertainment so there is no one to stop them. Yet in every state where homosexual marriage has been on the ballot, it has been defeated.

If LGBT people show up for a pizza, they’ll happily sell them one. But if they ask them to cater an LGBT event, they will refuse for religious reasons.

So...individually they're fine but in groups they're sacrilegious?

He doesn’t say go out of your way to do it.

You want to cater a NAMBLA convention? A child nudist party? A swingers backyard sex party?

People should be allowed to say no.

“Memories Pizza”

They may not have good pizza, but do have great branding.

Because the Gaystapo will go through every business in the phone book, take note of only those who refuse service and then crank up the outrage machine.

There's countless gay-friendly bakeries, photographers and pizza joints. This is about tracking down the ones who aren't and forcing them to toe the line.

“1) The Constitution’s protection of minorities from the tyranny of the majority”

Might be time for White, Judeo Christiam males to declare themselves a minority and seek the same protection.

Boy, would that upset the left.
