Homopocrisy

Homopocrisy - the false profession of desirable or publicly approved qualities, beliefs, or feelings, esp. a pretense of having virtues, moral principles, or beliefs. (The Middle Finger Somewhat Concise Dictionary - Vol.II)

OH..OH wait. I thought you called people who refused.......Oh never mind.  

New York Daily News
"New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez needs a new hairdresser — or a new stance on gay marriage. Martinez was recently dropped by her hair stylist, Antonio Darden, who is gay.
Darden told a local news station that he cut the governor’s hair three times, but won’t do it again as long as she continues to oppose gay marriage. “The governor’s aides called not too long ago, wanting another appointment to come in,” he told KOB-TV. “Because of her stances and her views on this, I told her aides no. They called the next day, asking if I’d changed my mind about taking the governor in and I said no.”
Martinez has said she believes marriage should be between a man and woman. Darden, a popular stylist in Santa Fe and the owner of Antonio’s Hair Studio, has been with his partner for 15 years.
“It’s just equality, dignity for everyone,” he said. “Everybody should be allowed the right to be together.” 
 Gay marriage is not recognized in New Mexico."

  1. So let me get this straight, it's perfectly okay for this gay hairdresser to refuse service to someone he disagrees with but should a straight baker refuse service to a gay couple wanting to get married there's a major human rights violation.

    1. Discrimination is ok when it's done to remedy some past injustice. And in this case homosexual marriage is still just a *current* injustice (against common sense and morality).
