The Supreme Court is rejecting an appeal from a Hawaii bed and breakfast that wouldn't rent a room to a lesbian couple.

The justices on Monday are leaving in place Hawaiian state court rulings that found the Aloha Bed & Breakfast in Honolulu violated Hawaii's anti-discrimination law by turning the couple away.

Owner Phyllis Young had argued she should be allowed to turn away gay couples because of her religious beliefs.

1. You have an absolute right to a religious belief, but you do NOT have an absolute right to run...

a business that breaks the law or discriminates on the basis of that belief.

2. Not exactly the spirit of Aloha...

from those assholes. Fuck 'em.

3. Who would Jesus hate?

4. Does she demand a marriage certificate before renting to hetero couples?
