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.

What’s wrong with the practice ”We reserve the right to refuse service to ANYONE”
BS!
John Homesley…..Once homosexual marriage is deemed “holy” by the activist judges, it is law…..and NO ONE can discriminate a persons “civil rights”. The homosexual activists are quite aware of this power! It is NOT a civil rights issue, as they claim. It re-defines the very foundation of what societies have been built on since Creation.
Liberals are very clever at redefining words in order to make them more palatable to the ignorant in society.
Pretty sad day in America when State or Government can fine you for what you believe or don’t believe in. As owners you have the right to choose. This is no different than a bar tender refusing service to a person that has had to much to drink. So now under the same law a drunk should be able to sue a bar for refusing him service. Liberty Ridge Farm should sue the State of NY all the way to the Supreme Court.
What happened to “separation of state and religion”?
When did we lose our rights?? This fine by the government is outrageous!!!
