So there’s already a ton of red tape for businesses in NY. Now there’s going to be pink tape and blue tape. I can see some businesses closing down over this. If not immediately, then as soon as they get sued.

How is characterizing certain aspects of a world view as “xxx” values somehow running it down? I’m always honored when a leftist denigrates my state’s “Texas values” as something detestable, because I know who’s uttering it. In fact, we have a conservative political organization named “Texas Values,” to which I give regularly.

Could it be that the leftist New Yorkers secretly know that their values suck, and are alarmed when someone points it out?

LOL.OK. Finally I can get rich quick. Whenever a few of us girls get together at a restaurant and not a male among us, the waitress would ask "are you guys ready to order?". That irks us to no end. Now we can sue! how cool is that!

"A leftist," sure, but you usually don't hear that kind of talk from politicians running for the top of the ticket, because they know that it alienates lukewarm voters.

You can be Rosie O'Donnell or Sean Penn or Margaret Cho or Rob Reiner, or some other comedian or air-headed celebrity, or you can be president.

Ted didn't understand that that goes for conservatives too. You can take the cheap shot and be on that level or you can show yourself to be above it.

“Businesses that don’t respect and accommodate an individual’s chosen gender identity risk incurring six-figure fines under rules implemented by the city’s Commission on Human Rights.”


Violates the 8th Amendment - which prohibits “cruel or unusual” punishments. This would be unusual - especially since this very subject didn’t even exist in the public discourse until maybe a few months or a year ago.

If I were a business with some big funding, I’d allow male, female and transgender - that’s it. If they attempted to fine the business, I’d immediately challenge the suit AND turn around and sue EVERY SINGLE BUREAUCRAT, PLUS THE MAYOR - personally, for violation of my Constitutional rights under color of law (Title 42, Section 1983). Their position as a government employee does NOT protect them from personal liability in these matters.

There needs to be push-back by people with back bones. It is the only way to stop this nonsense, this fascism.

I am a gender parrot.

That’s right.

I copied handsome, homosapien, hetersexual men who preceded me and chased wantonly after women.

I shall henceforth identify as Barack Hussein Obama, and shall move into the White House, and commence rescinding all previous Executive Orders.
Hey, I’ve evolved.
Anyone who disputes me is a hateful bigot.

You could have a different gender identity every day of the month. They do claim it’s fluid, don’t they? What an experience that would be.

“Two spirit” individuals are Native Americans...


When will Latinos, First Nations, etc. get sick of the left treating them, their ancestors like a bunch of dependent sissies?

Good grief...living things do not have a gender. Nouns and pronouns have gender.

Human beings have a sex, and it’s a binary option.

The party of science should know better.
