Owning a building/business while gay is a felony in Missouri...

Oh shit, is the bar owner gay? I live in Missouri, on the opposite end of the state, and there's a gay couple that own a really popular bar in town.

The business they smashed into is an LGBT bar

I’ve been seriously thinking of building an LGBT bar. Does anyone know where I can purchase gay bricks?

Some demolition and reassembly required.

Gay bricks are made from gay clay, so they say
