Did you see this little gem that happened last week, too, to a Tennessee state official?

Good for Penney's! People are pushing back against the hate.

Campfield has since declared he is being discriminated against and it's terrible he's a victim.

The Bistro, on the other hand, has had it's best business week ever, and has had people calling the restaurant from all over the country, ordering a glass of water to be picked up, paying by credit card and leaving a huge tip just to throw a donation towards the owner in support of this.

Tennessee restaurant The Bistro at the Bijou recently
became a social media star after kicking out state senator Stacey Campfield because of his anti-gay agenda.

The senator spearheaded a "Don't Say Gay" bill which "prohibits the teaching of or furnishing of materials on human sexuality other than heterosexuality in public school grades K-8."

When Campfield tried to have brunch at The Bistro, owner Martha Boggs asked him to leave.

"I hope that Stacy[sic] Campfield now knows what if [sic] feels like to be unfairly discrimanted [sic] against," she wrote in a Facebook post that now has more than 2,000 likes.
