Man Kicked Out of Bar for Being "Too Gay"

A man in Tuscaloosa, Alabama claims that the bar Catch 22 had kicked him and his friends out for being "too gay". The video below was on the local news and Joseph describes his alleged treatment.


Joseph: "I was in the back of the bar, Catch 22, and we were picking music by the jukebox and the female owner of the bar just kicked out my friends for dancing 'too gay'...She proceeded to tell me that she was the owner of the bar and that if I'm to continue coming to her bar, that it's not OK to be open because it's not a gay bar and it never will be. And then she added that gay people disgust her."
The bar owner denies any wrongdoing and says the incident did not occur. She says Joseph and his friends are welcome back anytime. The ACLU says nothing can be done legally because Alabama does not protect people on the basis of sexual orientation.
