Why has the Gay community turned into bullies?

Ironically they have been delivered from this sort of thing themselves, now they make a "sport" of picking on people that don't embrace their lifestyle as enthusiastically as they think they should. It's going to take time for all the officials to come to terms with new rules etc, why go around trying to find people to bully?

Bullies. Imagine going about the place deliberately making people's lives a misery, just because the law is on your side. Why would anyone want to force a clergyman/ official to, grudgingly, marry you? Doesn't sound like a very joyous occasion to me.

ok fair enough, they live there, they want to force this woman to do something against her beliefs, normally you'd all be spitting out your organic peace porridge at such a human rights violation. She took the job before this law change, it would be different if she hadn't. So now this woman must be forced to violate her own principles so this "couple" and all of you can feel good about yourselves at having got one over on an "evil bigot" - shame on all of you, if this couple truly loved each other they're go the 25miles to the Frenchburg, as we all know this is a stunt. As most of you know I am not religious but at least this woman has had the guts to stand up to the new breed of bullies.
TTT - "ok fair enough, they live there, they want to force this woman to do something against her beliefs, normally you'd all be spitting out your organic peace porridge at such a human rights violation."
No-one wants to 'force' this woman to do anything - all that is required is that she does the job for which she is being paid. If she finds herself unable to fulfil her duties because of her moral conscience, then it is her responsibility to seek alternative employment, rather than forcing her views on people by breaking the law and denying them their legal rights.
"She took the job before this law change, it would be different if she hadn't. So now this woman must be forced to violate her own principles so this "couple" and all of you can feel good about yourselves at having got one over on an "evil bigot" - shame on all of you,"
Again, there is no 'force' involved here. This woman is in a situation that is not of her making, but her continued refusal to do her job and obey the law is entirely of her own making, and therefore not deserving of sympathy.
Neither is it deserving of any sort of gloating, but I do not see anyone on here, or in the clip, doing that either.
"if this couple truly loved each other they're go the 25miles to the Frenchburg,"
As I have said previously - why should they? They have a legal and moral right to have their marriage conducted where they live, and they should not be made to re-locate their ceremony, with attendant cost and inconvenience, to satisfy the morals of a woman who is allowing her faith to stop her doing her job, and obeying the law.
"as we all know this is a stunt. As most of you know I am not religious but at least this woman has had the guts to stand up to the new breed of bullies."
I don't know this is a 'stunt' at all - and neither do you, and this woman is not 'standing up to the new breed of bullies' - there is no bullying going on here - except that of tax-paying citizens being bullied out of their legal and moral rights by a woman who thinks he faith makes her above the law.
