Nope but most people tend to not be swayed by Arista's more outrageous comments. I suppose you could always lodge a complaint

It would seem so and in that it tells you what you need to know about the validity of the replies.

We've all have grown accustomed to Arista's typically incendiary posts, but that doesn't change my opinion of what went on in this story. His outrageous tactics don't alter my own feelings on any given subject, just like yours don't.

And if an Arista type homosexual turned away a Christian family from a B&B you would feel the same?

Of course I would. Works both ways for me.

Did the lady say specifically it was her religion or just her convictions? "She later admitted she had turned the couple away because it was her policy not to let same sex couples share a room."

if it is her policy how is that any different to have a policy to stop say school kids going into a newsagent 5 at a time, or a policy that says that members of the public cant use your staff canteen and so on?

The pair said they "were treated like lepers" - really, is that what being turned away from a b&b has become?

Mr Black said: 'When we got out of the car she was immediately distant and unfriendly and then she said, "it's a double room", and we said "yes". - perhaps she was not distant and unfriendly perhaps they were.

"We said it was illegal to discriminate against people who stay in hotels because that's all we knew at the time and she said it was her private home and it was against her convictions."

It is her private home and a business but surely she has the final decision who stays, end of? - what if Peter Docherty and Ami Winehouse arrived - is she not allowed to say no to them as well?

Stop bringing religion into it LT. It has literally nothing to do with that, as much as Arista would like to think otherwise. The fact is she discriminated against them based on their sexuality. Private home bollocks - it's a B and B and as such has to adhere to the laws of the land. And trust you to compare them to the most outrageous double act you could get your hands on.

Being a B&B does not wave your right to decide who and who does not stay in your rooms.

If you have just cause to refuse admission, which she obviously didn't. She discriminated.... nothing more.

she did not like the look of them, it is up to her. Just the same if they were a couple of hoodies, gypsies, Emos or Vampires. if it was my Mum I would want her to have the final call.
