BOOM. Well done ma'am.

We didn't kick no kraut ass holding hands boy!

But… but… God is gay. WTF? Also, there is no God. But he's gay. He moves in mysterious (some would say illogical) ways.

Win for the teen.

It blows my mind that people are saying “both parties responded civilly” or something of the sort. No. No, they did not. The teen responded with civility, maturity and just barely passive aggression, whereas the store owner exposed his hateful, ignorant bigotry propped on a crutch of religious justification. This freedom-of-expression-above-all-else bullshit has to stop. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not to their own facts. We should not applaud a man who uses gross misinterpretation of an outdated theology to qualify a very wrongheaded intolerance. Disliking LGBT people is wrong. There is nothing wrong with being gay. Homosexuality is not a “lifestyle” or a choice. And, whether or not you believe in a higher power, that higher power is not condemning homosexuality from the heavens — bigots are. Stop applauding ignorance, and stop applauding hate. There are more important things than an idiot's right to invent facts and express their own stupidity.

like a boss.

my half-sister makes $83/hour on the computer. She has been fired but last month her pay was $7790 just working on the computer for a few hours. Read more on this site… LazyCash10.com

I'd like to buy a shirt. Make it happen!!

They're a company in my hometown and they LOVE working with groups like this.

At least he prayed about it first. I know that usually helps ME decide whether or not to be a bigot.

Lucky for her, there are a bajillion other places who would be more than happy to print her awesome t-shirt. I'd totally buy one.

i think both parties handled themselves very well in this situation. although i don't agree with the shop owner's beliefs, it's his store and he can do what he pleases. it seems that the outcome of situations like these always tend to be ugly, so i'm glad to see civility for once.

I don't know how to comment on stories where both parties in a conflict as tense as this conduct themselves in a civil, agreeable manner.

So God answered his prayers and told him to be an intolerant dickhead? Seems logical.

The shop owner's original draft: “I don't respect other people, so I don't deserve your money.”

Kudos to both the shop owner and the young lady. See, it is possible to love and respect people even when you don't see eye to eye. If your faith and heart tell you that you should not support gay marriage, then don't. And if you don't want to give business to a company that feels that way, don't. Simple. Respect. Move on.

Funny since “Rod's Sporting Goods” sounds like a hip gay bar. However, unsurprising since gun use is always seen better than any sexuality. Just think about how many more gun shots there are on TV than hand holding between anyone.

SHE IS FUCKING AWESOME.
