Mickey D's Should Know Better

An official complaint has been filed with the city of Louisville’s Human Relations Commission by two men who allege they were subjected to homophobic remarks by employees of a local McDonald’s restaurant.
Ryan Marlatt, Teddy Eggers, and three other friends had stopped for lunch at a McDonald’s restaurant on East Market Street on July 26, 2008, while visiting Louisville for the weekend.
The men say that while they waited for their food to be prepared, an employee behind the counter referred to them as “faggots” to another employee.
Marlatt and Eggers then approached the cashier, said they didn’t come to the restaurant to be insulted, and asked to speak with a manager.
As they waited for the supervisor on duty to appear, the employee who had called them “faggots” started arguing with them, repeatedly calling them “faggots” in front of other customers and calling one of them a “cocksucker” and “bitch” according to the American Civil Liberties Union, which is representing the two men.
