"My partner and I were reminiscing," White told the Arizona Republic. "I had my arm around her neck, and she had her hand around my waist. I gave her a hug for about a minute, pulled myself away to give her a quick kiss, and then we continued talking."

White posted about the incident on her Facebook page and received an overwhelming response of support from the online community. Representatives of the hotel then met with the couple to apologize for the incident.

White said the couple was not only invited back the next day, but offered free drinks as partial recourse.


Hey, for free drinks I'd probably kiss a dude.  Wouldn't you?

Kissing a guy wouldn't be the hard part.  Posting about it Facebook afterward would be more difficult.  Still, for free drinks...

This case just goes to show we need to make a Federal case of this because clearly public outrage is unable to deal with situations such as this.

Public "sin" = public "scandal." I hope that helps.

I'm sure I wouldn't accept "free drinks" as an apology for being kicked out for a gay kiss. I'm glad the public outrage was favorable to the good guys, though.

By the way, has anyone noticed that the 'moderators' (I don't think I'm allowed to call them anything except what they force me to call them) edited the original title of this thread to eliminate the call for jmfcst's bigoted attentions.
