we really need “loser pays” legislation to put and end to frivolous and nuisance lawsuits like these. when some clown acting as his own attorney files a suit like this and loses, he should have to pay all court costs and the defendent’s attorney fees as well.

we should also put a cap on attorney fees. maybe if we starting importing Indian and Chinese lawyers on H1B visas we could have the same effect on US lawyers that’s happened to US engineers and scientists... i.e. job loss, hiring discrimination, wage stagnation.

I think it’s actually an old story. There are articles about this going back to 2008/2009. He can’t be suing for the same thing again, I’d think.

Yep, it looks like the owners of the link used for this thread just got the old story from 2008 and brought it forward, word-for-word, and gave it a new date.

But it has left me curious as to what the court did with the suit.

Here it comes from the 1.7% emboldened by the Suck-preme Court.

Not too long ago they said that as much as 10% of the population has some homo- or bisexual proclivities. Now even the CDC and WHO, who strive to be PC say it's more like 3% at most. Why the sudden decrease? What gives?

Well, they actually counted using surveys instead of dreaming up numbers. Facts are such bothersome things, aren't they? Libtards hate facts.

In a normal world, this would be thrown out as frivolous.

Someone whose intellect I respect is Mark Steyn. He’s just done a piece comparing what’s going on here with events in Germany in 1933 — only THIS TIME it won’t JUST BE THE JEWS!
I’ve been trying to hammer this one home for over a year!
And, friends, it’s JUST STARTING!
THIS IS A MUST READ!!!

He's upset about the word homosexual now, but that's just the beginning of his worries. Wait'll he sees what's in store for him later!

The article dated July 9, 2015 says there are two cases and that the second one was filed on Monday which is the same day the judge refused to give him a free lawyer for the first case.

It most certainly is illegal to consider it a sin in at least some circumstances. At least if by “consider” you mean actually being allowed to practice what you consider without punishment. We cannot collectively decide anything in opposition to it any longer. But that does not work both ways. Now the government can collectively decide to punish people who want to actually practice what they preach. See the Christian cake bakers and photographers.

This has to be satire.

Sad though, in the near future it may not be.

“by the Suck-preme Court.”

It’s got a ring to it.

Or maybe Supreme Sucky, or U.S. Suck—me Court...

I believed it - it’s the logical conclusion to what has just transpired.

If the made-up term “sexual orientation” has protected status, then any person or literature that calls it wrong, sinful, etc., must be hateful.

Sexual orientation should never have been promoted to protected status. Race, colour, ethnicity, etc., are not sins. Homosexuality is a sin, according to Scriptures.
