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.

it’s not righht
Well they should expect more of this. It’s there choice to be lesbians and others, whose beliefs choice not to. Per the Bible I believe in the Bible. It’s (man & wife) not of the same sex. The Judges who made this stupidity ruling does not believe in the Lord. We need to refuse more instead of accepting it. I support this farm for refusing them, I think they have a lot of character in their decision. Should not have been fined for their believes , I believe it’s a violation of their rights . Next time someone like that tries to book a wedding, I would tell them we are all booked up. Amen & God Bless
COULD THEY PUT UP A SIGN THAT STATES WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO NOT OFFER THIS SERVICE TO THOSE WE DO NOT AGREE/RESPECT. I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT WORDING BUT ANY HOW GET THE CORRECT SIGN
ALL people have rights. It is to bad that Cynthia and Robert feel discrimination is appropriate. The Bible, written by a man, is a guide to help people manage their lives. Why should Lesbians or anyone be excluded from having God bless their union?
Our generation today is nothing short of garbage. We need to go back to the 40s and 50s
🙁
Whats so sad….couldn’t that couple go to his or hers church, or Pastor that is also gay. and leave the other people to tend to their way of living. I would think they do this just for meaness. what does it matter who, or how they get married…They just want to upset people…..
GOOD FOR THEM…………………………….MK
$#%&!@* new york AND THEM PEOPLE.
So this ignorant judge is telling them that if a 40 year old man has a 16 year old n a 20 year old n wants to get married nude they have to accommodate that’s horse c**p I would make my business stipulation that I do only Christian bible weddings!
