Marcus Bachmann (hubby of Michele) Refused Service in Indiana, Store Owner Assumed He Was Gay
Read entire story. I did not know the hubby has been dogged with being gay before although I did know he once ran a anti-gay conversion clinic. This story is hilarious. But the dress owner did discriminate based on his supposed behavior. Too good to be true

Marcus Bachmann Refused Service in Indiana, Store Owner Assumed He Was Gay
By Alexander Crouton-Skitch on March 27, 2015
INDIANAPOLIS – Marcus Bachmann, husband of former Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, unwittingly became the first public face of Indiana’s newly-enacted Religious Freedom Restoration Act, after being refused service at a dress boutique because the store owner assumed he was gay.
The Bachmanns were visiting the state capitol on Thursday to lend their support to embattled Gov. Mike Pence when the incident occurred. Dorothy Holtz, owner of Dotty’s Dress Den described what happened.
“I didn’t think anything was out of the ordinary at first,” said the 59-year old self-described “devout Christian citizen,” although I don’t usually have men come in by themselves. He was very polite but the more he spoke, the more I thought he was different.”
Holtz began to suspect that Bachmann was “perhaps a homosexual man”, and because it is now within her rights to refuse service based on religious beliefs, informed Bachmann she would be unable to serve him, and asked him to leave.
“I was aghast!” said Bachmann. I’ve been shopping for Michele for years! I had no idea why the woman in the store turned on me like that. I thought perhaps she had suddenly become ill.”

Holtz will reportedly continue to exercise her religions freedoms throughout her dress shop.
