Amazing Dear Abby tells a homophobic couple pretty much they deserve what they got..... [View all]

I saw this coming. Dear Abby has always been supportive of LGBT causes, which clearly this conservative couple was not aware of when they wrote a letter to Dear Abby complaining that their new neighbors are ignoring them because they didn't include 2 gay couples at their house party. To get a better idea just read the column:

My husband and I relocated to Florida a little over a year ago and were quickly welcomed into our new neighbors' social whirl. Two couples in the neighborhood are gay -- one male, one female. While they are nice enough, my husband and I did not include them when it was our turn to host because we do not approve of their lifestyle choices. Since then, we have been excluded from neighborhood gatherings, and someone even suggested that we are bigots!

Abby, we moved here from a conservative community where people were pretty much the same. If people were "different," they apparently kept it to themselves. While I understand the phrase "when in Rome," I don't feel we should have to compromise our values just to win the approval of our neighbors. But really, who is the true bigot here?
