'We Reserve The Right To Refuse Service To Homosexuals'
HOUSTON -- Tee shirts worn at yesterday's anti-gay Houston hate festival, #IStandSunday, reveal crowd's true beliefs: "We Reserve The Right To Refuse Service To Homosexuals."
Yesterday was #IStandSunday, a rally supposedly held to support pastors in Houston involved in a failed repeal attempt of the city's non-discrimination ordinance. Instead, it turned into an anti-gay hate rally, sponsored by the anti-gay hate group, Family Research Council.
These tee shirts were reportedly seen at the rally:

The original image was taken by Brad Pritch and posted to Instagram. We opted for the blurred image via Memeographs as there are children in one of the photos.
