Funeral home refuses to cremate 82 year old man after his death

[jillian]

If he went to a Muslim Funeral Parlor and demanded to be cremated with bacon, would that even make the news?

You will have to give us a real-life example instead of a fantasy scenerio.

What if he went to a Funeral Parlor owned by someone who is afraid of poop and demanded that he be smeared in poop and then cremated?

stupid example

I don't understand the reason why they didn't want to cremate this man... it's not logical. Even if somebody doesn't agree with homosexuality he should treat dead people with all the respect they deserve View attachment 124498

you're correct.

but I wonder how you can "disagree with what a person is born.

that's kind of nutty in the first place....which explains why starting with that type of incorrect premise allows them to do stupid things like that.

Steve McGarrett doesn't agree with black people.

Yeah, why?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

It's such a stupid exercise to take something as inane and remote as the article in the OP and get offended by it.

No CrusaderFrank's example was a good point, considering Muslims hate homosexuals and pig products, not too surprisingly though you Leftists ignore that because of your creepy love in with Islam.

It's just Christians you bash at every available opportunity.

Your example had zero merit, why are you into smearing crap all over yourself or something? Is that what get's you excited?

To masturbate to probably.

. . . because the owners found out on the day he dies that the 82 year old man was gay.

Homophobic hatred is not the standard for American values of decency and right action.

What is the fuck wrong with people like this? The great majority of us who are hetero do not understand the stupid hatred and meanness.

Gay man sues funeral home that refused his 86-year-old husband's body

One Mississippi family's pain and grief after losing a loved one was compounded when the local funeral home suddenly refused to perform their relative's cremation because he was gay.

Robert Huskey passed away in May 2016 after his heart condition worsened over the previous year. Knowing that his death was imminent, Huskey's nephew had made arrangements with the local funeral home the month before his passing.

Federal legislation introduced Tuesday would add sexual orientation and gender identity to the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which currently bans discrimination based on race, color, sex, religion or national origin. At an introduction ceremony for the Equality Act, Human Rights Campaign president Chad Griffin said passage of the bill will end the "patchwork" of nondiscrimination protections currently offered by only some cities and states.

"No person's fundamental civil rights should be determined by which side of a state line they live on," Griffin said. "But at this very moment, half of LGBT Americans live in a state where they are at risk of being fired, denied housing or refused service simply because of who they are. That's un-American."

Rob Hill, director of the Human Rights Campaign's Mississippi chapter, told NBC News that his office is "deeply disappointed" by the funeral home's actions.

"All Mississippians — regardless of who they are or whom they love — deserve to be treated with respect," Hill said. "We will continue to push for expanded, statewide protections for LGBTQ Mississippians so that this type of unconscionable discrimination will be prevented in the future."

Editor's Note: This article's headline mistakenly stated John Huskey was 82 when he died. He was in fact 86

Oh no Jake. The alt right won't cremate you.

 

[ZZ PUPPS]

meh
Dude is an asshole, but we have a right to be an asshole. And he has a right to deny practices he doesn't agree with.
Its HIS body

It's nobody's business what he does in the privacy of his own crematorium.

I wasn't even aware that Steve McGarrett had even posted in this thread, stop going completely Off Topic with these weird comments you are making.

This has what to do with the OP exactly? Oh that's right nothing.

Have at it.

 

[Lucy Hamilton]

Regardless of whether you agree with the gay lifestyle, the man is dead, he is of no harm to anyone therefore just like all dead people are no harm to anyone.

And when he was a living, gay man, he was also of no harm to anyone.

The topic is dead people, get with the programme already.

1. Prove that I am a leftist.

2. Prove that I love Islam

3. Prove that I bash Christians.

If you can't do that, then don't attribute those things to ME.
