B.C. couple shut down B&B after gay rights complaint
I just don't think these guys were wasting their time hunting out an unsuspecting couple to pull this on.
If they reserved the room under the names Chris and Pat, then showed up on their door and pushed the envelope then for sure they are trying to bait someone.
Are the gay guys pushing the matter too far at this point that the place is not in operation...yeah I'll admit they could let it go with some kind of agreed settlement where the old couple agrees not to discriminate in the future if they reopen their business.
In the end, I understand the old couple saying, I don't approve of that in my home and denying them access. The problem they are not realizing they blurred the lines between their home and their business. I am of the opinion that when they hung a shingle out saying B&B, they gave up their control of the home where the B&B is located.
Obviously if someone came in with meth lab equipment, this would be illegal to do and they can turn them away. If some couple came in and invited 40 of their friends up and caused a disturbance, again they can kick them out. 2 gay guys doing whatever they do behind closed doors isn't illegal and as long as they aren't breaching the peace or anything, they should have the right to stay. Just in my humble opinion.
and here lies the crux of the problem.
What exactly would it take for you to believe that being gay is not a choice?
Is there anything out there that could change your mind or are your beliefs so firmly entrenched, God himself couldn't sway you?
Your belief in the bible is a choice too, being a Christian is a choice, Here's one, being gay is not a choice, but believing and religion is.
Nobody forced you to believe in Dr Zeus, er, I mean the bible, but you do, and your right to do so is protected, why can't you share the same tolerance with people who are gay?
Also where exactly does this blatent disdain and hostility from various people in this thread come from? After all, calling them homos, **** etc is dispareging and shows no attempt at hiding peoples contempt, so when that contempt is so plainly visible, then some of you have the audicity to say "Don't call us haters"
Hello? Are some of you serious?
Gays don't have a choice but you do.

Yes they do, if you are born with something, a condition, a preference, black hair, whatever, it is because it is in your genome, part of your DNA. THE ONLY WAY TO PASS ON GENES IS THROUGH SEXUAL REPRODUCTION. So, if homos were actually 'born' that way (they are not), the actual genetic defect of homosexuality would be more like 1/1,000,000. Of those 300ish people, if 25% end up accidentally producing offspring, that leaves only 75 gays, AFTER THE FIRST GENERATION. Any of you activists see where I'm going?
When 2 males can screw each other in the butt and one of them can get pregnant and carry it to full term then you Libs come hollar at us. It ain't natural and it ain't right. Stop making BS excuses and trying to justify this.
West, I know you didn't address this to me, but my question to you would be, What would you suggest be done about it? Let's see if we can come to some common ground. Is there a solution to the perceived problem? I don't believe anyone is trying to justify it any more than what is perfectly evident. They are here, they walk among us! What can you do, what will you do, what are you willing to agree to? Are you willing to co-exist?
I'm a Christian man. I try to live by the bible (Gods word for you haters out there) and he strongly condemns homosexuality. Period. No way around that. I choose his side. He's the perfect one. Men on men sex is nasty and not natural....it goes against nature itself. Nothing good can come out of it. All I know is what I would do in this situation and that would be the same as those good upstanding moral people did. I think you can tell I'm not in favor of ANY gay rights whatsoever.

BTW - how can tolerating literally CENTURIES of pedofilism amongst the Clergy (HIS representatives) be considered 'perfect'? All that demonstrates is misguided tolerance, or to be blunt, irresponsibility to his 'innocent children'.


Oh, yeah ... I almost forgot. Here's back at ya

I bet you had that stupid facepalm picture for quite a while and were just itching to use it at the first opportunity. It's obvious by your post that my left nut is smarter than your entire body.
I doubt you're smart enough to even know how dumb your post was.
Your bible is nothing more than a bunch of made-up crap, which for all intents and purposes is fine, believe it if you want because that's your right, but don't hide behind it to be a closed-minded bigot because that's exactly what you did just now.
Fortunatly the law doesn't see it your way, which is a good thing because people like you would ensure we never come out of the dark ages.
This thread has been a pretty good debate up until your stupid facepalm photo and your lame attempt at calling me stupid, but I doubt you even know what a debate is.
If you have something positive to add without the insults then let's hear it, if you don't want to debate then take a walk and pass. Don't go away mad, just go away.
That goes for the rest of you 10 gallon hat wearin' neanderthals who the only thing your capable of sayng is "I hate ****".
Wow, what clever input, oh God you really put some deep thought into the discussion. I'll never be the same after reading those well thought out replies that add so much to the discussion. I can hardly contain myself you guys are so smart.

Hypothetically speaking, if this article was "A gay old couple who own a B & B kicked out a Christian couple" would some of you guys be defending them the way you are the gay couple? Somehow I think the thread probably wouldn't have even been started...

Wait a minute, and you called me dumb?
