On Twitter, Facebook and other social media, critics comment regularly on the Kleins’ story, calling them “bigots” and “homophobes” for abiding by their biblical belief that marriage is between a man and a woman.

In an on-camera interview with The Daily Signal, the couple read some of these messages, then explain how they deal with the backlash.
