I have before in bars. Isn't it a legal way to post "No Blacks Allowed" or Homosexuals Not Welcomed?

Wow...these people hate anything that doesn't accept their lifestyle...amazing.
So maybe they're afraid they will get boycotted by Christians, if word got out that they make cakes for gay weddings.

No one is "hating" on anything. They're just boycotting the place because they chose to kick out customers for some silly and discriminatory reason. It would happen if the guy had kicked out a black couple, mexicans, left handed people, blonds or little people.

It is what it is. If you own a business and refuse to help a class of people for rational reason then you'll have to face the backlash.

What am I missing: David Cooley, owner of The Abbey, says he'll be banning parties for soon-to-be-wed straight women until gays and lesbians are allowed the same privilege.

If gays and lesbians cant be "soon to be wed" then they won't be having bachelorette parties.
So there will be no bachelorette parties.

Lol, I always get a laugh out of phrases like "forcing their lifestyle on everyone else"...as if a spate of citations to appear were mailed out forcing hapless heterosexuals to go to wedding and eat bad cake.

The business owner made a decision which is his/her right. There are, however, consequences.
