This is something that the club members have had to say about the threats from the mayor:
"We continue to believe there is a legitimate and legally recognized distinction between 'spouse' and 'domestic partner' and our policies are non-discriminatory," the letter stated. "Equally important is our belief that the City ordinances that attempt to dictate the Club's membership policies are invalid. Further, in our opinion the Mayor has no jurisdiction to impose this fine. While we regret this matter has still not been resolved, Druid Hills Golf Club is prepared to defend its position."

The heckuvit is, she had been doing some very fiscally responsible things, before this nonsense. Making tough choices, getting the budget under control, layoffs of layabouts, etc.
What people need to understand about Atlanta, is that the City of Atlanta proper is only around 400,000 people. The metro area outside the City of Atlanta is over 10x the population of the city.

I believe the city is holding the club's liquor license hostage, so it's not that simple.

Hard to tell (from this) if "Randy" and "Lee" are women, but I'll take your word for it.
"The Druid Hills case was brought by two gay members of the club, Randy New and Lee Kyser. New is a former head of Georgia Equality. Kyser's partner, Lawrie Demorest, has been a high-ranking member of several campaigns for former city council president Cathy Woolard, an openly gay candidate."

So this mayor is declaring gay marriages legal in Georgia? Who needs state laws with people like that running things.
To: beyond the sea
Hey, they're Druids. Mayor should respect their distinct culture.
