From the New York Times 13 April 2016:
--------------------------------------------------------------
A judge ruled on Wednesday against a gay couple who had sought the right to marry, in China’s first court case addressing the issue of same-sex unions. The couple, Sun Wenlin and Hu Mingliang, filed a lawsuit against a civil affairs bureau in Changsha, Hunan Province, in southern China, after the office refused to grant them the right to marry when they tried to register in June 2015.

...Mr. Sun said that he had argued that he and Mr. Hu should be allowed to marry since the law did not explicitly ban same-sex marriage.

“We said this at the hearing, but they just kept repeating articles that mention ‘a man and a woman,’ ” he said, referring to the civil affairs bureau.

The bureau cited three articles from China’s marriage law and two from the official marriage registration regulation, he said, with four mentioning “a man and a woman” and one stating that a civil affairs bureau may refuse applications if it believes a couple is not qualified to marry.

People actually put their home phone number in their signature back then. Can you believe it? I wonder if Rob Boldbear has changed it since then. Or if he's dead.

From Independent Journal 20 April 2016:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Whole Foods, one of the largest retailers in the U.S., was embroiled in controversy after a pastor in Texas claimed to have become the target of a homophobic slur. After the story of alleged discrimination went nationwide, Whole Foods launched an investigation into the matter. What they discovered, KXAN reports, has led them to file a lawsuit against the pastor, calling his claims “fraudulent.”

In his original video posted on Monday, Pastor Jordan Brown — who is gay — explains that he ordered a cake from Whole Foods Market’s flagship Austin, Texas, store that was meant to read “Love Wins,” but when he received the cake, it read “Love Wins Fag.”

From The Associated Press 17 May 2016:
------------------------------------------------------------
A gay Texas pastor who sued Whole Foods after he bought a cake that he alleged had a slur written on it in icing has dropped his lawsuit against the grocer. Jordan Brown of Austin dropped the suit and issued an apology on Monday. Brown said he was "wrong to pursue this matter and use the media to perpetuate this story."

Whole Foods should vigorously pursue their lawsuit against him for the defamation that he caused, if any.
