KABC Los Angeles - El Coyote Restaurant Protest

[Antiisorlak15]

Maricones de mierda

[bigpapykane]

I say no on prop 8 but why are these people trying to ruin businesses only because they will not support them? These people are bullies shame on them!!

[MrRedFredSaid]

@bigpapykane - no, actually it's bullying to deny people basic civl rights. And sorry, but if it were your basic civil rights that were in question you might see it differently. The issue is about as personal as it gets. If you don't see that, then you have a basic lack of understanding of the issue.

[kfag101]

gay agenda at work!

[anonwillprevail247]

i love gays but i also love el coyote >.< dammit

[polystictus]

I ate there last Saturday...it was excellent. I actually thought there was another El Coyote as I didn't think this was the correct location. Also it was very busy and no obvious queer patrons...actually everyone looked very normal. Glad the gays were unsuccessful at their attempt to destroy this business with their selfish, small minded behavior...get over it. You are different and should keep it were it belongs...behind closed doors...

[karausu]

What El Coyote did you go to? I don't agree with what those who supported no on 8 did, but aside from that El Coyote sucks, the service sucks, the food sucks (everything is from a can, or frozen).

[Jennorth]

GET OVER IT GAY COMMUNITY

why is it you think your opinion is all that matter!?

She has the right to her opinion, all that matters is that she does not serve bad food and drinks. Dont go there then, there are plenty of us that are not going to stay away because you dont like their politics.

[MrRedFredSaid]

@Jennorth - And we have a right to voice our opinion. You don't like it? Too damned bad. I'd say you need to get over yourself.

[grunchr]

You ignorant douchebags... El Coyote donated $500 against Prop 8... the Owner's daughter was the one who donated $100 to Yes on Prop 8.

I can't understand why the gay community is full of hate and ignorance. Shame on you.

[xaviervonrottie]

What did this lady think would happen when she played politics at a place places gay citizens keep running? This would be like the owner restaurant that mostly back people eat at donating money to the KKK. And really now all I hear from the religious right about this being WRONG! Have your people boycotted businesses for years? Let us not forget Disney and McDonalds (all over gay issues might I add). Don't like it when the table is turned do we.

[hillaryforshillary]

To me, it's ironic that the mormon's would choose such extreme measures surrounding the institution of marriage when they are, in fact, the originators of marriages deemed "outside of the norm." When they stop having 3-15 wives, sometimes minors, then they can questions other people's marriage choices.

[hillaryforshillary]

Guess what people?! As Americans we have the right to protest ANYTHING we want! If there had never been any protest (which then turned into dissent) against the British army, we wouldn't even be called the United States right now. If courts hadn't been the one to decide Brown vs. Topeka Board of Education, do you honestly believe that schools wouldn't STILL be segregated?? Wake up! Equality is coming whether the religious right wants it or not.

[wrestle1965]

These boycotts are excellent. It's past time that people fight back against bigots.

[buckob]

Whaddya know? Maybe boycotts really do work after all.

[zebostoneleigh]

This is appauling. Is/did the Yes side call for boycotts of Steven Spielberg films, Google, the iPhone or NBC? Wake up people - it's not a select few (and it's not just Mormons - despite how much you want to believe it is) that supported this.

[hillaryforshillary]

Who cares is the yes side called for boycotts or not? It is their right to do so. Just because one side chooses not to act does not mean the other side shouldn't. I bet black american's weren't protesting after Topeka vs. Brown board of ed but the white ones sure were. Your argument is baseless and boring.

[Radislav001]

Fucking liberal whackjobs you LOST get over it or move to Canada

[thejimfrom1966]

Hell, I'm gay.. and disgusted. Next time I will donate to "YES to 8". These guys are attempting to bully people into voting for their cause. They say her church made her, and that she had a choice. I ask you, aren't they doing exactly the same thing?

[fubaglady]

I used to tolerate gays...not anymore. I do not tolerate the intolerant.

Freaks are not very peaceful. So far all the Hope & Change is just SWELL!!

[hillaryforshillary]

We don't need your tolerance or your condescention, for that matter.

[moski3]

Fucking bullies. These gays want everyone to believe just like them. They have become the new Nazis intimidators!

Sorry, there is FREE THINKING AND PERSONAL BELIEFS here in the USA still. All this for $100 donation.

Thanks for posting. Now I know where to spend my $, even though their food kinda sucks!

I have a lot of gay friends and support them, but I HATE bullies EVEN MORE!

Picking on old people and church goers for not believing your way has pushed me to the other side. Shame on you Nazis!

[neenerpuss]

You don't Spit on your patrons and expect them to come back to be spit on some more, or to not be upset that they were spit on!

[hillaryforshillary]

How is it any different than the Southern Baptist Convention boycotting Disney? People are allowed to spend or suspend their hard earned dollars where and how they choose. And, if they deem the political or religious views of a particular business in direct opposition to their own, they have the CHOICE as to whether or not they will spend their. Welcome to America and Capitalism... I GET TO SPEND MY MONEY WHERE I WANT TO!

[moski3]

I agree 100%. This 1 woman who just works at Coyote chose to donate $50. HER hard earned money! SHE can spend HER money any way she wants.

These people are not just boycotting, they are harassing and threatening people over a $50 donation about a PERSONAL belief. Fucking GAY Nazis!

Should people all "black list" all the gays that fuck in the bushes off by griffith park because they might not agree with that behavior? Maybe a YouTube vid is needed to harass the Gays now? Picket where they work!

[hillaryforshillary]

You're just ridiculous and hateful. She absolutely has the right to spend her money where she wants and I in turn have the right to never spend my money there again. Action = consequence... or did you not grow up with consequences? You sound like a spoiled, petulant child who is just lashing out verbally. You have little self-control and it's kind of sad bordering on pathetic.

[moski3]

So, how is me agreeing with you a problem? You started this not me, now who is lashing out?? THINK HARD now. One woman that works there donated $50 so you want to boycott the whole place. How stupid is that? I am guessing you don't go there much any ways.

So me not agreeing with Nazi bulling tactic is hateful? Now That is REALLY stupid!

You do sound sad and pathetic.

[hillaryforshillary]

Wow, this is like communication 101. You agreeing with me was never a problem, your subsequent comments are the problem (not to mention your line of reasoning and inability to make sense). To say "Fucking GAY Nazis!" is offensive and enraging, yet I can keep my calm with you, choosing not to use expletives to express my opinions. The nazis attempted to obliterate an entire race. It's hardly the same.

To the latter part of your comment, grammitically it makes no sense at all.

[moski3]

Ooooo! you so smart tooo! I am soooo sorry to offend you with my colorful expressions.

Are you trying to squash my free speech? I am just "expressing" myself like these picketers are doing! I thought free thought and expression was what all liberals fight for? I am being perfectly calm when I say "fucking gay Nazis". Those picketers are not sounding very nice while shouting at a restaurant because ONE woman that works there donated $50 to something she believes in.

[hillaryforshillary]

I'm not trying to "squash [your] free speech" I'm trying to engage you in an inteligent debate. Is it at all possible for you to express your speech without the f-bomb every couple of sentences? I mean, you guys talk about protecting your children from what our marriages would bring to them yet you use foul language to argue your points. A little hypocritical? So she only gave $50? Now my weekly $50 in margharitas will go elsewhere. Everything in life is choice, she made hers and I made mine.

[moski3]

Fuck that!, I do not give a crap about "the children"! Just because I think these bullies picketing a restaurant because ONE WOMAN that works there donated $50 is a bit Fucked up, you decided the whole business should be condemed or something.

Like I said G O O D F O R Y O Uuuuuuu!

and Like I said, I could give a rats ass about the Prop, just don't care one way or the other.

[moski3]

Like I said G O O D F O R Y O Uuuuuuu! You are showing them!

By the way, their Margs really sucked, I can not believe you actually spent money there on a Marg!

[hillaryforshillary]

I bought for my staff as a weekly thank you. Ask any bartender to use fresh lime juice instead of sour mix and your margharita will be better. YOUR marg might have sucked but mine was quite tasty with fresh juice.

[moski3]

THAT calls for another GOOD FOR YOUuuuuuuuuu!

[revol212]

she doesn't just work there....she's the co-owner.

[moski3]

No, she is the owners daughter and is the hostess.

Well, good job anyways!

All the gays that work there and have absolutely no problem with this person having her own PERSONAL BELIEFS when it come to marriage, are now about to lose their jobs because business has slowed down, because of the Nazis assholes that don't want others to have FREE THOUGHT and their own PERSONAL beliefs.

Bring down a business because ONE person that works there does not BELIEVE like you do!

GOOD job Nazis! GOOD JOB!

[karausu]

I wonder if this has anything to do with the food and service at the el coyote sucking?

[moski3]

yea, that part is true, it is not so hot in the food dept!!

[moski3]

Why are gay liberals so stupid as to picket one woman who donated $50? Seems that they are looking for a backlash of some sort.

I know a lot more people are fed up with gays bulling people for their personal beliefs, now more then ever. Sorry, Forcing people to think just like you NEVER works. I could give a rats ass about prop #?, but this bulling has pissed me off at the Gay Nazis!

[hillaryforshillary]

We get to picket and boycott whomever we choose, whether you disagree with it or not. Name calling only makes you look uneducated.

[moski3]

Go ahead! Picket one woman that donated $50. I call it Hateful and Pathetic, you call it brave and clever. Who cares.

Now go make another sign to yell at this ONE woman that donated $ to something she personally believes in. You are the one that looks like a little cry baby bully, not me.

So, how does picketing ONE woman that works there look "educated"?

[hillaryforshillary]

Why is it hateful? I call her actions hateful. I personally have not picketted but I am not spending another dime there. I am not being a crybaby or a bully, I am exercising my rights.

p.s. I never used the words "brave" or "clever." Don't lie.

[moski3]

Great! don't eat there! G o o d f o r Y o uuuuuu!

One woman that works there, donating $50 for something she believes in should make everyone do the very same thing! and put the place out of business and everyone looses their jobs! and the place closes. That will show that evil bitch for believing in something you do not agree with!!

YEA!!!

[hillaryforshillary]

Your sarcasm is very illuminating. There are many places of business that I don't patronize for a plethera of reasons; I don't buy books from the Christian Book Store because I don't agree with their agenda, I don't rent movies from Blockbuster because of the way they sensor films. As an American and a capitalist I have the distict priviledge to determine where my dollars go. They will no longer go to her or her family. Your argument holds no weight with me.

[revol212]

Actually she donated $100 (just to get the fact right). Also, various sources cited her as the co-owner and/or manager. I don't think there would be that much reaction if she was just a mere worker. I'm sure there are many workers at other restaurants that donated yes on 8 but you don't see that many boycottings. This is her business and I as everyone else have the right, like hers, to not support it.

[moski3]

This is One way to get more people to HATE GAYs!

Good going ass holes!

[muldurag]

All hail the new thugocracy.

[Hdtex]

woodenigloo.....what's your address again?

[Fight4FreedomUSA]

I will go out of my way to go to the EL Coyote whenever im in cali. Thanks for letting me know about it. There is no such thing as bad exposure. Im also looking into joining the mormon church, I like a church that has balls! Freedom or Die!!!

[newportguy]

Motivated by Mormon faith?? What about selling alcohol??? Isn't that against the Mormon faith?

[woodenigloo8]

BTW Notice if anybody disagrees with gays, the gays try to get rid of them?

I've noticed this for a long while now

[randyorcory]

so you noticed, you are not as stupid as you sound!

[woodenigloo8]

You fags took away my Tale O The Pup. I'll be damned if you take away my El Coyote.

BTW Notice if anybody disagrees with gays, the gays try to get rid of them?

Right! ;-)

[randyorcory]

Tale O Pup did not own the property. Idiot!!

[jexmarter]

The night before my wedding to my partner of twenty two years, I celebrated with friends, family and our two year old son at El Coyote restaurant. We spent hundreds of dollars that night. So, in essence, I financially contributed to the dissolution of my own marriage. I helped the Mormons strip me, my husband and my son of our equal rights and protections under the law. That is a horrible feeling. Almost indescribable. I can never go back there.

[jerrydoubleu]

Fuck you el coyote pieces of shit bigots. Fuck you and fuck your businesss. Fuck you.

[nonbreeder]

"The straights" already have every right known to mankind---they cannot even begin to understand. And "the straights" have tried to get rid of us for fucking CENTURIES...so what's your point?

[jerrydoubleu]

I'll never eat at that shithole again. Anyway the food was mediocre.

[ng1260]

Don't you do the same? What we call protest, you call prayer.

[clevelandphil]

You fags took away my Tale O The Pup. I'll be damned if you take away my El Coyote.

BTW Notice if anybody disagrees with gays, the gays try to get rid of them?

[jerrydoubleu]

Call me a fag and I will kick your mother's ass.

[McCainTheTurdburglar]

HaHa! This straight guy, and millions more like me who believe in equality for all people, support the gay boycott and will honor it. And I also support kicking his mother's ass! LOL!
