Atlanta golf club excludes gay partners

| | Comments (1)

An Atlanta golf club is expected to challenge the city’s four-year-old gay rights ordinance over a gay member who argues her partner should get spousal club benefits.

Druid Hills Golf Club was ordered by Mayor Shirley Franklin to change its policies about the gay member or face sanctions, citing a 2000 ordinance that guarantees equal rights for gays in public accommodations.

Club leaders recently sent a letter to the club’s 1,100 members arguing the club should not change its policies to provide full benefits for partners of unmarried members. (source)

Didn't we go through this fight once before?

Oh wait! That fight was about black and interracial couples.

I'm glad it's happening!

Any paralels to previous civil rights help our cause!

We need more bigots to be stupid and miscalculating like that!
