That's not all they did.

1) They advocated, publicly, banning Gay people in Charlotte from having any rights of protest, petition, speech, assembly, and association.

Here's the rest of the case against them

isn't it amazing how people act when they only have the foxnews/daily caller version of events???

It was 10 years ago and it's an opinion. Seems those aren't ok unless you fit a certain criteria of a people.

It appears we no longer have religious freedom in this country.

ah so if you were racist 10 years ago then that means you should be let off the hook in the eyes of public perception

Boycott Sun Trust and put your money in my bank. ;-)

Yes. Public perception has nothing to do with this. It is a business denying access to certain individuals because of what they believe - and in the process harming franchisees of those individuals. It is wrong, it is a double standard, and it shocks me not one iota that you and your ilk will not concede that.

Turning someone away because of who they are is tolerant, but saying that the entire public should be treated equally is "intolerant.

Amazing. You actually believe that too. It's astounding.

Next time matty, try to make sense with what you write.

You said that a business refusing someone business because of who they are is "tolerant".

But wanting equal treatment for all people, regardless of who they are is intolerant.

I didn't say that.

You are fine with a business turning away people because they're gay.

But you said that "you serve all the public, or none of it" is intolerant. So, demanding equal treatment for everyone is "intolerant"?

Your double-talk isn't very good.

Wow.... Just wow.

What a stunner.

All Christians are racist now because they don't believe in gay marriage.

At least 80% of my closest friends were black 17 years ago. Why was I called a racist for voting against obama 11 years later?

But I thought gay weddings came in all colors.

Read it - all it said was in 2004 (READ TEN YEARS AGO). They went to the city council to ask that they no longer have gay pride parades in the city. The rest of it is just their opinion that Homosexuality is on the dark side of the spiritual war between God and Satan - which is true of all Christians.

Regardless, it doesn't matter what they believe - a bank should not be able to pull all business (NOT SPONSORSHIP, this is actual business) because they disagree with the belief system of the customer.

Should Sun Trust go ahead and close the savings accounts of all people in the country who hold similar beliefs? These guys should be allowed to believe whatever they want and not have it mean they are not welcome to do business with certain companies. Their money isn't the same as everyone else's?

This is hypocritical and you know it.

You should read it. They advocated, publicly, to bar each and every petition by Gay persons to exercise their free speech, petition, protest, assembly and expression rights. You want the youtube of their direct words at the Charlotte City Council hearing?

They aren't martyrs.

As far as Sun Trust's decision I have two points. Its Sun Trust's listings and they can chose to market their property as they see fit. Besides, its not like they support those protections for Gay people.

They are allowed to have conservative views and the people they work for are allowed to fire them for it.

If they had the mental capacity to have a peaceful protest and not be such a bloody annoyance then people wouldn't care. It's yalls own damn fault nobody wants to put up with you, and the ones that do, only do so because they don't want yalls intolerant asses putting them on social media as a freaking homophobe...
