So you are fine with this discrimination?
Technically, this would be about stereotyping, not discrimination.
Group was not kicked out because they were Christian, they were kicked against because they were an anti Gay group that was passing out disgusting graphic anti gay pamphlets.
Lol and gays aren't anti-Christian? Apparently, you haven't heard some of the things they've said (and seen what they've done in their parades)." And they were NOT handing out pamphlets in the store.
The bottom line, though, is that gays are a "protected" class; Christians are not. But the hypocritical double standard is hilarious.

I'm gay, and no, he didn't have the right to refuse service or throw them out. Now if they were inside handing out pamphlets it would be a different story, but they weren't according to the article.
Same here.
I'm gay, too, and I don't support kicking people out for what they may or may not have been doing outside the premises.
If they were doing it INSIDE and refused to stop when asked...then...but that was not the case.
Fundamentalist Christians in America think anything less than complete control over our laws and society is "persecution." They must have the right to bully everyone who doesn't live up to their standard and make their lives miserable.
Live and let live. Why is that so difficult these days?
As for the OP, if the group was proselytizing, the owners had the right to kick them out. If a gay right's group was stirring up trouble at a Christian bakery they would also have the right to ask them to leave.

I knew a gay couple in NJ. Catholics. Went to church every sunday.
They were disseminating hateful propaganda. He had every right to kick them out.
This is the flip side of allowing retailers to discriminate. If a baker can refuse service to gay people, and you accept that, didn't you ever consider that the tables could be turned?
