New Jersey Bed & Breakfast Owner Tells Lesbian Mom: God Invented AIDS So That We Don't Have To Serv

New Jersey Bed & Breakfast Owner Tells Lesbian Mom: God Invented AIDS So That We Don't Have To Serve Gays

After noticing the above sign outside of a New Jersey bed and breakfast, one lesbian mom took to their Facebook page to express disappointment that her family was clearly unwelcome there. Camp Whitebriar responded:

Isn't it wonderful Joanne Fraschilla, that you and your son can enjoy the animals here because I have a traditional marriage with a husband who works with me 90 hours a week to take care of these animals, and the summer camp....we're 66-68 years old....there were no gays or queers in our time.....if two old ladies chose to live together..so be it, let them deal with God when they get there...but to have the "face sucking" thrown in my face of two gay lesbians who are totally destroying the "normal balance in a child's life" as you claim your son...where is the role model that your son needs to know how to act like a man? or will he only see the "one sided selfishness" of a "single parent"...and end up an out cast in society by being "gay" himself because he didn't have a father as a role model. I'll pray for you....remember what the bible says: "Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas".....guess that's why God invented aids.... THIS LOCAL BUSINESS WILL BE ONE MAN ONE WOMAN ONE GOD MAKES MARRIAGE....AND PROUD TO DO SO....YOU SHOULD BE SO LUCKY TO OWN YOUR OWN BUSINESS

unless the NJ law has a religious protection clause the bed and breakfast is quite likely covered.

Federal rights trump local law always -- read your 14th Amendment.

Equal access to public accommodation is one of the greatest expressions of equal rights under the law. See your 1960's history and case law for references.

This Loonie should be sued to the point that she has no business left. She doesn't deserve to provide public access if she refuses to provide public access.

Figuratively, fuck her.

sue them. But to be honest I wouldn't waste a penny on them. I'd go find a place that doesn't mind who I am.

also there was some demand for that. I went to the HUD office because I wanted to be sure of no violations. They told me as long as I lived on the property, in a house for example, I had a say as to whom it was rented too, I don't know, but maybe a B&B is considered private property like you were saying about the Golf courses.

Now it's all out in the open and people can not patronize that B&B, save for the Palins.

An apology? What would be the point of a forced and insincere apology?

people that are accepting of all types of people. Bigots like this interpret the bible, or make things up as they go along, so they can use religion as a cover for their hatred and bigotry. If it were not for the easy target of LGBT, they would find something else to express their hatred and bigotry. They are a personality type conditioned in life to be hateful and bigoted. They are wastes.

the YELP business review page, from alleged former guests, (people who claim in their post to have stayed there)?

I see lots of comments on the Joe-my-God page, (where this news originated), claiming that the phone numbers on the B+B's web page are not being answered, and one cannot leave a message.

are such assholes and so far from human decency. The bigots don't get it, they will rot in hell if there is such a place in the big picture.
