Someone yanking chains? I'm not buying it at all and calling BS on the story. It seems like something invented to stir up support and even more outrage against folks.

==============================

 A Christian business owner in Indiana called a morning radio show today to express his support for the new state law that now allows him to discriminate against gay people. He told the Kyle & Rachel Show on 100.9FM that he's thrilled because he now doesn't have to have gay people in his restaurant.

He said he has already been discriminating against gay people by finding ways to get them out of the restaurant. The way he has gone about it in the past is to lie the gay customers, telling them something in the kitchen was broken so he couldn't serve them. Lying - not gay people eating in a restaurant - is explicitly forbidden in the Bible. In fact, it's one of the Ten Commandments. So this business owner can break one of the most sacred laws against lying to keep gay people out of his business.

"I feel OK with it because it's my place of business," he told the radio station. "I pay the rent. I built it. It's all my money and my doing. It's my place. I can do whatever I want with it. They can have their lifestyle and do their things on their own place or at people that want to be with them in their type of place, not my place."

I don't agree with discrimination, however I also don't agree with Govt. telling someone how to run their business. we hear a lot about freedom of speech, however now are telling people how to think or believe. all discriminating will do is hurt his business. social media is getting close to tell you who your friends should be. if his religious beliefs are that way then so be it.

I guess you didn't read the article or if you did you missed this. The coward part refers to this:

 

The coward refused to share his name or his place of business, instead hiding behind anonymity. Thankfully there are other Christian business owners like Sam Wise who will welcome LGBT people to Sammy's Brewhouse. We'll be thanking him April 3 at 7pm.

 

I still say it's a made up story. See my comments at the beginning of the thread.

Calling bull crap on this story too. "To Kill A Mockingbird" anyone? Was his nickname scout?

Excerpt:

Apple CEO Tim Cook: 'There's something very dangerous happening' in America

 

Cook is very familiar with discrimination. In a New York Times profile published in June, Cook recalled witnessing several Ku Klux Klan members burning a cross on the lawn of a black family he knew back in the early 1970s. When he heard glass break, Cook said, he yelled "stop" but quickly pedaled away once he recognized one of the hooded figures as a deacon from a local church.
