But the rules don't apply to us!

A lesbian couple is asking Dollywood to change its dress code policy. The policy states that people with clothing or tattoos that could be considered offensive are asked to change them or cover them up.

These two women (and I use the term very loosely) were wearing t-shirts that said, "Marriage is so Gay." They were asked to turn them inside out. They did, but they weren't happy about it. They want the park to be "more inclusive."

News flash! They weren't told they couldn't come to the park. They were merely asked to abide by the dress code policy just like everybody else. But the rules don't apply to them. All we hear from them is "tolerance, tolerance." But when it comes to tolerating the rules that someone else has set on their own property, they seem to be a little lacking.
