Owners Cynthia and Robert Gifford of the Liberty Ridge Farm in New York have been fined $13,000 for refusing to host a gay wedding.
The Gifford’s host approximately 12 weddings at their farm per year, but refused to host one for a lesbian couple as they feel it would violate their religious beliefs.
But the New York State Division of Human Rights ruled that because the Liberty Ridge Farm is open to the public for specific events, like weddings, it must be classified as a “public accommodation.” This places the farm under a sexual orientation non-discrimination state ordinance.

Fined for what, we have the right to refuse service to anyone!
wonder when the black panthers or the KKK are going to sue because the landowners won’t let them have a meeting there.
I agree with the owners state is wrong god made man and from man woman government needs to read the bible its what this country was built on god blessed us.what is going on in america.
i would host the wedding there and take the money, but charge them twice as much and be the worst host anyone has ever seen, and make sure there was no money back guarantee. lol
why would you want to get married somewhere you aren’t wanted?
I believe gays should be able to marry, BUT I do believe these people have the right to say NO to host the wedding.
I don’t think the government has any right to control how these people use their own property, nor should a couple try to force their beliefs on others. Surely there are other venues who would accommodate them. This just smacks of another sue-happy situation.
By all common sense laws the judge is not handling the case on the law but on her liberal beliefs. The thing is to vote your convictions on the November. Elections and change the judges .
If you are in business that is the way things are. You have to condone interracial marriages so why not same sex. If you are using religion then what is the difference?
get the government out of our lives. vote out the liberal demoncraps
