Right of Refusal

  • In 1984, a Los Angeles Superior Court found a restauranteur guilty of "sexual orientation" discrimination because he refused to seat an alleged lesbian couple in an intimate, curtained dining booth reserved for "romantic evenings." The owner was fined $500 and ordered to pay the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees of $27,000.
  • In Pittsburgh, PA, two alleged homosexual men have recently filed suit against a radio station that refused to play their song dedication to one another on the air.
  • Numerous restaurants in Madison, WI, have been sued as a result of deliberately provocative "kiss-ins" by alleged homosexual and lesbian couples since passage of a "gay rights" ordinance there.
The right to refuse business services will be unreasonably encumbered by "sexual orientation" protective laws.

(Most of the above cases have been researched from case files compiled by the Lambda Legal Defense Fund, chief legal arm of the "gay rights" movement nationwide.)
