Author Topic: Pizzaria in my town raises $842k over gays rights debacle, reopens to full house  (Read 34826 times)

I asked you why you were angry
This is why I stated I was angry...

Also yeah I can't sleep at night, this whole incident's got me crazy

General you gotta understand that people aren't angry solely because they denied service to someone, it's who they denied service to and why. Businesses have the right to deny service to anyone they want to, this has never changed, but if the public thinks that, for whatever reason, that it was the wrong thing to do, then they'll get upset about it. It's simply human nature, nobody's rights are being violated here.

You see the issue I have with this is that there's no clear place to draw the line, I like the idea that businesses have control over what they do but at the same time not allowing the businesses to decline service for issues like these is like taking away some of that control, even if for a good cause.

It's mainly just down to how people see it, the people who own the place don't seem to want to do it with malicious intent.

this thread got off the freakin' rails.

Everybody loses, the only winning move is not to play, GG, etc

somebody who gets it. nobody wins. everybody is a loving starfish. there really wasnt any reason the pizza place couldnt have catered the wedding. they werent loving marring the two for Christs sake. and the gay couple were starfishs for making a huge loving deal out of it. just go to a different pizza place... or get real loving wedding food, not mutha fukin pizza.

the gays were an starfish for not respecting their religion
and the pizza place were richards for not catering just cos homoloveuality is a sin

I love when people don't read the thread and then act like know-it-alls.

there really wasnt any reason the pizza place couldnt have catered the wedding.

I have a question for people who are opposed to pizza place.

If the pizza place owners were black, and 2 people from the kool kids klub were getting married, and asked the pizza place to cater their wedding, and the pizza shop said no, would you guys be as outraged as you are now?

are you comparing homos to the kool kids klub or
