Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer will veto a controversial bill that would allow business owners to refuse service to gays and lesbians on the grounds of their religious conviction, NBC News is reporting via Twitter.

Brewer has been under intense pressure from business groups and political leaders to diffuse the situation and veto the legislation which they fear will draw unnecessary attention to Arizona a year before it hosts the next Super Bowl and following economic losses on controversial immigration stances.

My bet is she caves. She'll be scared that republicans will be blamed if homo-friendly NFL and Apple take their business elsewhere. She also can't run for reelection and last time I checked a democrat was the leading contender to replace her. So she will put party and politics over the word of God.....the except same thing 99% of worthless republicans do every day of the week.

So sad she’ll leave behind this legacy of caving into sodomites.

Dirty Brewer.

The bill does not mention gays. This is a religious freedom law. The legislature made the mistake of not having press releases before it went public instead of letting the media define what they passed.

[Psalm 73]

And people wonder why God strongly advised the ancient Hebrews against allowing this type of behavior in their society.
They destroy everything they come in contact with.

[11th Commandment]

I just read the one page bill (not sure if it was the final version sent to the governor). I do have problems with certain provisions... It is certainly not an absolute religious freedom bill. It allows for the state to regulate for “compelling interest”. I wonder if the state could force you to sell a cake to a gay couple to prevent economic boycott of the state- seems like a compelling interest.

[Fledermaus]

More misleading reporting with propaganda lies: it’s not a “Gay Discrimination Law”.

[Ironfocus]

So veto the “gay discrimination law” so gays can discriminate against Christians exercising their right to free association and freedom of religion. Nice.

Another one bites the dust?

God help us if the country clubbers at the Chamber of Commerce don’t make money. we surely should not stand in their way. In fact we should just open the borders and allow everybody want to come in just so they can have cheap labor also and put the rest of us out of work. (sarcasm)

[LRoggy]

How many electoral votes did Barry Goldwater get? Purity in intent rarely works in real life. I’m against gay marriage AND this bill. It goes WAY over the top. It would also give practitioners of Islam a wide-open door to Sharia law. I doubt you would want that result.

Just because the lesser of two evils is evil doesn’t mean you don’t have to live with one of those options sometimes. This law helps very few people and has the words UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES written all over it.

This is just ‘crony capitalism’ practiced by our side.

[Jack Hammer]

These days, the First Amendment - indeed, the entire constitution - means nothing to our professional pols.

[SueRae]

Well said.

[matginzac]

So another “conservative” bites the dust...too bad she doesn’t have another letter to hand Obozo...it worked so well the last time...so the NFL rules, McCain influences and AZ is off my list to visit.

[icwhatudo]

Coward.

[Cyber Liberty]

Brewer has been under intense pressure from business groups and political leaders to diffuse the situation...

Is that like defusing a situation? (And yes, she's going to Veto.)

[Menehune56]

God help us if the country clubbers at the Chamber of Commerce don’t make money. we surely should not stand in their way..

These are the same corporatists that steamrollered the boy scouts and this is how they plan to force homo marriage nationwide - with economic blackmail.

[Zenjitsuman]

I disagree with the notion this will inhibit business growth.

Declaring religious freedom will attract lots of businesses and God fearing, believing tolerant people who just don’t want the state forcing them to bend to the 2% GLAD crowd.
People of faith have rights too and the constitution says they have the right to religious freedom. Making people violate their deeply held religious tenants with laws outside the traditional legal boundries of the constitution is a problem for many.

I think Arizona will see a big swing of people who go there like the Pilgrims,Quakers for living with other decent people who aren’t perverts.

“doesn’t want to take any actions that could jeopardize the economic momentum”

As the old saying goes, “you’re only a whore once.”

Once any part of you can be bought for money, you are one.
