  1. Here's what the bone of contention is: "Owner Jamie Sanchez, who was at the Drip on Friday — along with a Christian DJ group made up of people he described as "visually handicapped" — has been calling for a truce between the LGBTQ+ supporters and his business, saying the protesters have the "anti-gay" thing all wrong. "We stand on Scriptures that mention homosexuality being wrong and a sin, but that's also mentioned among a list of things that we believe the Bible holds to be sin," Sanchez said. "So it's not that they're being singled out. ... In my belief, we're all guilty of sin, including myself. I don't hate anybody. And [LGBTQ+ community members] are all welcome in here. We serve LGBTQ people all the time — almost every day." Under the "Who We Are" tab on its website, the Drip's parent company — the nonprofit Recycle God's Love, which Sanchez also owns — discusses its "doctrine." A section titled "Homosexuality" reads: "This organization holds that a homosexual lifestyle is contrary to God’s Word and purpose for humanity and is sin (I Timothy 1:10). ... Moreover, this organization is instructed to Love those living such lifestyles. 1 Cor. 6:9 We Believe that showing hate towards people in these communities is not the way Jesus would respond. Therefor [sic], although disagreeing with the lifestyle, we must show love."" From Westword
