Sometimes I write things on Nashvillest.com and other times I work a real job that involves lots of airports, hotels, spreadsheets and the occasional pantsuit. Avid roadtripper, lover of redbud trees and firm believer in taking the scenic route.

Campfield, who just days ago defended his assertion that it is “virtually impossible” <a href="http://www.wbir.com/news/article/202839/2/Tennessee-Senator-Stacey-Campfield-stands-by-radio-comments-experts-say-hes-wrong" target="_blank">to contract AIDS “through heterosexual sex</a>,” confirmed he was kicked out, saying “I went in there and the lady started calling me names and wouldn’t serve me.”</p> <p>According to Campfield, the hostess called him a homophobe and accused him of hating homosexuals. “In my business I do rental properties and I’ve rented to homosexuals, mixed-race couples, black couples,” countered Campfield.</p> <p>He believes the restaurant treated him unfairly. “If you don’t think the way certain people think, then they think you don’t have a right to be served,” he told Buzzfeed.</p> <p>People denying other people rights simply because they have a different worldview?
