ABC57 News – See the Difference Michiana
A pizza restaurant in Walkerton, Ind. is saying they will not provide pizzas to a same-sex couple on their wedding and that they agree with Gov. Mike Pence’s signing of the controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
ABC 57 reported that the O’Connor family, who owns Memories Pizza, says they have a right to believe in their religion and protect those ideals.
“If a gay couple came in and wanted us to provide pizzas for their wedding, we would have to say no,” says Crystal O’Connor of Memories Pizza.
She and her family are standing firm in their beliefs.
Kevin O’Connor, Crystal’s father, says he believes the negative backlash the bill and its supporters are getting isn’t fair, saying that being heterosexual or homosexual is a choice!
“That lifestyle is something they choose. I choose to be heterosexual. They choose to be homosexual. Why should I be beat over the head to go along with something they choose?” says Kevin O’Connor.
