Christian B&B Owners Lose Supreme Court Appeal: Forced To Sell Business After Gay Couple Complains

LONDON, (LifeSiteNews.com) – Peter and Hazelmary Bull, the Christian hoteliersfined for refusing a single room to two homosexual men in September 2008, have lost their appeal to the UK’s Supreme Court, with the court ruling that their company policy was “discriminatory.”

Despite the fact that the couple proved that their policy applied equally to any unmarried couples, and not just homosexuals, all five judges ruled the Bulls’ policy to be a case of illegal discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, and dismissed their appeal. Two of the judges said the discrimination was “indirect,” but unjustified.

The elderly couple said they were “deeply disappointed and saddened” at the decision that has “reinforced the notion that gay rights must trump everything else.”

It's human rights idiots. Who gives these two dust balls the right to judge? No one.

(Insert scriptures that show the hypocrisy of organized religion)

These two need to be arrested, as they are extremists.

It is their business and they should be able to make the rules of how they run THEIR business. Do not patronize it if you DO NOT like the rules.

The problem with priques like you, 11:38, is that you only recognize the human rights of those with whom you agree. What about the rights of the hoteliers? Because their opinions don't fit your narrow world-view, I guess they aren't allowed any rights?
