[quote]A waitress in New Jersey who previously served in the Marines received an offensive note from a family who denied her a tip because of her "gay lifestyle." Now, she is speaking out against those very people whose freedom she once defended.
Dayna Morales, a server at Gallop Asian Bistro in Bridgewater, N.J., wrote an email to gay-friendly blog "Have A Gay Day" about her recent experience with homophobia while serving a family of diners, reports Gay Star News. When Morales introduced herself to the couple and their two children, the mother was allegedly shocked by Morales' short hair.
"Oh I thought you were gonna say your name is Dan," she allegedly said. "You sure surprised us!"
At the end of the meal, Morales was left with no tip on the $93.55 bill. Instead, she found a note on the receipt, reading: "I'm sorry but I cannot tip because I don't agree with your lifestyle & how you live your life."
Facebook users offered their support to Morales in response to the post. "As a member of the heterosexual community, I beg your forgiveness for these ignorant people," wrote one person. "I always tip 15% to 20% no matter who my server is, what my server does out side of the place is none of my business," wrote another.
Neither Morales nor a representative for Gallop Asian Bistro was immediately available for further comment.
Although this story may seem shocking, it's not the only one of its kind to make headlines recently.
Last month, a waiter at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Overland Park, Kan., found that some Christian diners had left on the back of a receipt a shockingly homophobic message -- peppered with anti-gay language -- in lieu of a tip. Although the diners said his service was "excellent," the note called his lifestyle an affront to God.
"We hope you will see the tip your fag choices made you lose out on, and plan accordingly," the note continued, per to the New Civil Rights Movement. "It is never too late for GOD’S love, but none shall be spared for fags. May GOD have mercy on you.”
Earlier this year, a lesbian couple was handed an anti-gay note from a North Carolina cafe owner, who decried homosexuality as an act against God's will.[/quote]

9 通の返信Freedom of Speech is a two-way street, not a one-way street. I just love how many civil rights groups will scream that some people are not given equal civil liberties but at the same time attempt to trample upon the other side's civil rights.

"It is never too late for GOD’S love, but none shall be spared for fags. May GOD have mercy on you."[/quote] God's love? What prattle. Now what kind of love is that, that this god cannot let his creations live different lifestyles and make certain choices, despite it making them peaceful and content, so he has to reign down eternal damnation on them? Some christians with their delusions and their -blam!-ed logic.

Suddenly the idea of an all-powerful-being getting [i][b]enraged[/i][/b] at people hitting the same genitals together is the funniest thing in the world to me. Like, I'm crying right now. I just imagine two cave men tapping dicks, God coming out the sky in all his infinite fury with a ^ look on his face, and the two confused thickies tapping again.

Disgusting people. IF you're too cheap to tip don't go to a restaurant. How did they even know the server was gay? Why are they fined being served by a gay person and not compensating them for their service? Hypocrites.

I don't care who's being a rude judgmental person to who, this really shouldn't count as shocking. Something better fitting of that title should be that guy who nailed his testicles to a brick road to protest police brutality. Now that's a rare sight in the news.
