Tig Notaro On The Anti-Gay Pizza Restaurant In Indiana: 'It's Sickening'
Memories Pizza, the Indiana restaurant that said it would refuse to cater gay weddings under the state’s controversial religious freedom law, has raised more than $800,000 from supporters who have no problem with the discrimination against LGBT customers.

“It’s so odd,” Notaro said Friday. “When you’re denying people services based on who they are, it’s like you’re removing their homes, food — it’s sickening.”
