Sounds to me like Big Earl's is overdue for a big fat homosexual lunch counter sit-in.

@2 Pretty much what he's asking for.

I'm envisioning a bunch of "wholesome" mixed gender couple types going in--two man/woman couples dressed for church ordering a meal, and then later the men make out while the women hold hands. Construction works and trucker types, too. And maybe a group of Catholic School girls.

Durn it anyway, it's like a guy can't be openly hateful to a whole sector of society without consequences anymore. What has happened to our country?

I love that he describes his daughter, the waitress who called the two men 'fags' as a "young lady". Sure, hon, and ladies use the N-word all the time, too.

@3 "it's like a guy can't be openly hateful to a whole sector of society without consequences"

This is north Texas we're talking about. The consequence is probably a huge increase in business for this shitweasel and his toiletfish spawn. Earl be standin up fer 'muricen valyous y'all!

What kind of self respecting human being (gay, straight, bi, trans, etc) would willingly dine in a place that is labeled as a Bait House & Country Store? Are the pan seared Night Crawlers really worth the trip?

Having said that...Big Girl's (which is how the name is pronounced if ya don't use that southern drawl has opened up a Texas sized can of worms and deserve whatever fallout that should come from this. They showed their hand by serving & accepting payment prior to their pronouncement "we don't serve homos....but we do offer up a delightful deep fried minnow, crickets & worm casserole".
