Hmmmm:

Memories Pizza -- the first Indiana business to declare it would refuse LGBT business -- got blasted on the Internet and by phone, but the owner says there's been a huge misunderstanding ... sorta.

Kevin O’Connor tells TMZ he's had to temporarily close his business after he told a reporter he would refuse to cater a gay wedding under Indiana's new Religious Freedom Restoration Act. O'Connor says he was immediately flooded by threatening phone calls, and social media postings.

Funny how the supporters of the law that are being skewered for their supposed intollerance are the recipients of all kids of hate, religious bigotry and harassment.

“We’re very hurt and confused and we stood up for what we believe,” she told The Blaze. “The news just took it totally out of proportion. They lied about it. We said that we would serve anyone that walked in that door, even gays, but we would not condone a wedding. We would not cater that because it’s against our religious beliefs.”

Ah yes. The "tolerant" left who supposedly sticks up for "the little guy" shows their stripes once again.

Can someone tell me why someone has to subordinate their legitimately held religious beliefs in this manner is the "right thing to do"? People "vote with their wallets" all the time, for any number of reasons. Is there not another pizzeria in Indiana that can cater a wedding, such that these folks need to be subject to such hate and bigotry from the left?
