Since the act you signed is nondiscriminatory, nor does it permit discrimination, it is against our viewpoint as we want to discriminate against most religions in the state. You shall therefore enact legislation to codify and force people to participate in rites and ceremonies which are utterly contrary to their religious beliefs. You shall do so immediately, or we'll throw a temper tantrum. In addition, we will encourage others to do the same.
Because it's all about the gays, no kidding.

Mr. Pence, tell these jerks that the First Amendment is not negotiable.
The gays want tolerance, they are going to have give tolerance too.

It is astounding to me how many people are either deliberately or negligently misunderstanding this law. Look at all the CEOs who should be able to, you know, read and stuff, reacting as they are to what is existing law in many other venues and in actuality, valid under Constitutional law without the slightest equivocation. Signed by their heroes. I’ve never seen anything like this.

Thanks for Democrat Crony Corporatist links, tell everyone you know to not buy from these companies in response to their willingness to be part of another Rat Smear Campaign.

They do not want tolerance, they want acceptance. If they wanted tolerance, they would not be objecting to this law. Tolerance does not mean acceptance. Learn the meaning of the word.

Years ago, in Commentary Magazine, I read an article: "Is Capitalism conservative"? The author, a deeply conservative man (especially on the social stuff) argued that not only is Capitalism not necessarily conservative, but explained how the old English Tories considered Capitalism a radical, anti-conservative force that smashed family and tradition and order. I'm coming to the conclusion, after all these years, that the author was right. Most corporations are run by amoral people, after all, that would sell you and I to the lowest bidder for a fraction of a penny's gain in share prices. I think the Right has made a mistake in glorifying Capitalism all these years. It's simply an economic system, not a moral force, as we had believed. Indeed, without the restraining forces of social and religious ties of tradition, order, and morality, Capitalism seems to be an inherently immoral force. Taking the morality of out economics seems to be having the same effects of taking morality out of sexual relations, child rearing, and governance: horrible consequences.

Well summarized. Would like to read the article.

No, the big ones that could influence this is the NCAA and NFL, both of which have substantial events and/or operations in the Indianapolis area.
If the NCAA announces that Lucas Oil Stadium cannot hold the college basketball Final Four and the NFL announces Lucas Oil Stadium cannot bid on another Super Bowl and will move the NFL Combine out of the state, THEN there will be fast action to amend the law.

Dear Homosexual Lobby,
We’re under no obligation to promote, endorse, or participated in the bastardization of marriage.
The First Amendment precludes the government from prohibiting the free exercise of my religious beliefs.

Why aren’t they happy to monopolize the homo market?

Actually, they don't want acceptance.
They want dominance.

if these CEOs were around when the Founders were writing the Constitution they would be urging the Founders not to write the First amendment.
