Wal-Mart bans gay couple for NOT shopliftingNov 9th, 2009 | one responsePosted by OIA Staff in NewsNot every confrontation that a gay person experiences in their life is based on their orientation. But sometimes it is very difficult to see any other possible explanation. Take the experience that Joe Paolucci, Thomas Hitchcock, and their special need twins had recently with Wal-Mart. Employees at the Niles, MI Wal-Mart store accused Paolucci of shoplifting some Bic lighters.

I am a heterosexual male, and I am not surprised at this treatment. It is disgusting that anyone could be treated this way, and even more horrifying that anyone could be singled out and harassed based on their sexual preference.
