Why Indiana?
There’s a federal law along these lines already; and some 19 similar laws in other states.
Why do the pervs have their knickers in a twist over Indiana?
The media narrative on LGBTXYZ nonsense distracts from the utter failure of this miserable administration and the democrat party. And every sector of the left is in the game. CEO’s, actors, journalists, professors, pundits, cable TV outlets, late night shows, Hollywood, unions - the usual anti-American vermin.
As a resident of Indiana I support this action.
Now Governer do something to stop the high crime situation in Indianapolis.
Sarc on/ It’s OK to kill minoritys but not OK to keep cake from gays. /Sarc off
I think it should be mentioned that it does not mean that a practicing homosexual can be denied service to buy flowers at a florist or danish at the bakery. It applies to government forcing people to provide contractual services that would violate their religious/moral beliefs. A baker, for religious/moral purposes, could be just as opposed to providing a cake that depicted heterosexual immoral behavior. We should have the right not to enter into a contract which entails the celebration of a practice that violates one’s sense of religious morality.
This may have been expressed here or elsewhere, but as usual with the left we must look one or more levels above the Controversy Of The Week to see the real agenda.
In summary: the rhetoric about gays, discrimination, equality, etc. is meant to distract from the additional, ongoing blurring of the line between the public and private, aka government and free enterprise.
Government does not care about gays. It does not care about gay marriage and it does not care about cakes or photos. It cares about growth at the expense (literally and figuratively) of private businesses. The ballast of regulation or, when necessary, lawsuits and public condemnation, will be brought to bear when pockets of resistance are encountered.
As usual, the most alarming aspects of it are the people who, unpaid and unbidden, take the fatuous ‘cause’ and run with it.
Legal historians a century from now may be mystified that there was ever a time when Americans believed that a person should not be forced to do something contrary to his religious beliefs when told to do so by the government.
Jewish bakers should be forced to make cakes for the Aryan Nation.
Black sign makers should be forced to make banners for the KKK.
and
Gay caterers should be forced to provide food and entertainment to Westboro Baptist 'Church'.
Anything less just isn't fair!
This should be good news for Mr. Pence who has been basking in the success of the previous grand Governor, Mr. McDaniels.
A chance to pick up some bragging rights during his watch as chief executive officer of Indiana by working through this well orchestrated and professionally organized adversary.
Not necessary to stand before the camera and wag your finger or make unnecessary statements like “no new taxes”.
The queers, cross dressers and pedophiles are kicking some Indiana @$$.
Will Muslim potters be forced to make idols if their customers want them?
Next Job for you Governor is to end the HIGH Crime rates in your home town of Indianapolis and Gary as a start.
It’s OK to kill people in Indianapolis but it’s not OK for some to keep CAKE from LGBT?
