Default SO WHAT if I'm gay, It's my right!

Ahhhhh! But what if the shoe is on the other foot?!??!

Hmmmm... how about having a bunch of nonfags get a big protest going on this clear case of discrimination.

On a side note. Who would be ***** enough to want to spend their vacation hanging out with some homosexuals?

Straight Couples Say They Were Kicked Out Of Gay Hotel In Key West



KEY WEST, Fla. -- Three heterosexual couples said they were turned away from a hotel in this gay-friendly tourist destination because of their sexual orientation, which would violate city law.

The six were vacationing with a gay couple and had reservations at Big Ruby's in downtown Key West when the three straight couples were turned away.

"The manager literally said, 'We don't want you here,"' said Jim Pirih, who had vacationed at Big Ruby's last year with his partner, Jason Williams.

The group, most of whom are from San Diego, was already settled in their rooms Wednesday when the manager told the straight couples they would have to leave, citing a policy of not allowing heterosexuals on the property, Pirih said.

"He said he had to appeal to the majority, and the majority of guests wouldn't want straight people there," Pirih said.

The six were allowed to stay one night, but had to check out Thursday morning and were told they wouldn't be compensated for the inconvenience, Pirih said.

Big Ruby's did not immediately return a phone message Friday.

Key West has a city ordinance that prohibits discrimination by sexual orientation in housing and lodging. Violators can face a civil citation and be fined up to $500.

The hotel has several misdemeanors because of the licensing process that they "skirted" and it turns out that they are going to be under federal indictment for a felony because they purjured themselves in a prior judgement.

funny, although i'm happier than a clam that some ***** "hotel" goes down in flames, but I report a felony at some "right wing" corporation and I get the axe.......

silly me...

I think hotel owners should be able to run their hotel anyway they want, and refuse people with green eyes if they want to.

That being said... the current laws need to be fairly enforced.

I think the owner of a business should be able to sale products to whomever he wants, whether it's a room for the night or a bunch of groceries.

You run a very dangerous line.

so if I own the only grocery store in town and refuse to serve blacks, jews and mexicans thats O.K.?

How about fire departments, police .... I understand your concern regarding government intrusion but there really comes a point where you have step back and think.
