Lesbian kicked out of Federal building due to 'Lesbian.com' T-shirt

''As an African-American and a lesbian, I haven't been through one day without facing some sort of discrimination ... but this is just shocking.''

Lapriss Gilbert, 31, who was getting a Social Security card for her son but was ejected by a guard at the Los Angeles building because of her Lesbian.com t-shirt. After contacting her monther, Tanya Gilbert, who is also a lesbian, they called the police and were then allowed to enter the building. A spokesperson for the security of the building reportedly says they have notified the guard's employers that his actions were inappropriate and unacceptable. (Contra Costa Times)
