The homosexuals are going to boycott Indiana?

Wow, their real estate just took a sharp jump up as well!

This is one reason that the homosexual issue should be tackled at state level. Every state for itself - if your state welcomes them, they can have ‘em. If your state sticks with the normal man/woman marriage, then that state will get the normal families and will strengthen and prosper.

“Cummins believes it’s bad for business and bad for Indiana and sends the message that the state is unwelcoming,” a Cummins spokesman said.

Dudes concern doesn’t seem to extend to Christians.

Well if Cummins wants to cater to the Lavender Mafia, that’s its affair.

No one is forcing them to do business in Indiana or to serve customers with religious faith.

This isn’t even a question of marriage, it is a question of telling religious institutions that don’t practice same-gender couplings that they can’t be sued out of all they own just because they do not practice it. As far as I am concerned, if someone were to honestly assess this law, then it allows the right to not join a religion that won’t recognize your relationship, leave it, and preach all sorts of evil you wish against it, none of those rights are taken away or interfered with.

They are Attention Whores and think they have the right to force others to do whatever they want them to do.

I sense that business is becoming a leader in destroying our liberty in general through promotion of international groupings like the EU and so on and by opposing freedom for conservative religious groups guaranteed by the First Amendment.

Corporatism is a problem and its influencing all major political parties and governments in the world.

That’s why I support UKIP and Nigel Farage.....

Meanwhile in the local news here in Indiana, there has been a surge of gays being drug behind pickup trucks by Christian business owners since passage of the law. Oh the humanity!

Seriously though, all stupidity aside, the movement militants are simply upset that they ans their army of free layers can no longer troll Indiana businesses for lawsuit lotto. God forbid someone be able to practice Christianity without fear of lawsuit and having to lose their home and life savings to an ACLU lawyer. AFAIAK, they can make good on their threats and leave. Like Exact Target is someone to love in the first place... the source of billions of email spam annually. I guess I'm pretty much done with ebay now as well since I just shut off my paypal account. Screw em all, walk another block and buy your homo cupcakes somewhere else. Better yet, keep your sexual fetish to yourself and there won't be one single problem (as if there were a rash of problems to begin with). My apologies for the rant... the stupidity in the air is burning my eyes

The tolerists have no tolerance for any one who doesn’t think as they do.

Because if someone has a quaint belief in God, that person is a bigot.

Its not about gay rights and it never was in this country.

What two people do in their bedroom is their business. But they have no right to force their sexual preferences upon others.

And religious people have as much right to their beliefs as every one else in our society.

I agree. It’s also why I’ve come to see the corporatist/Chamber-of-Commerce wing of the GOP to be every bit an enemy as the lib Dems and their loathesome agenda. Every bit an enemy to everything I believe and value.

I’ve made a massive shift to avoiding as much commerce as I can with these large American corporations, as they’ve increasingly cast their lot with the deviant homo-fascists and their attacks on religious liberty. Doing everything I can to buy only local and small-business product.

Faggies are drama queens who squeal & stamp their little feet when society fails to do their bidding. It’s all about ME ME ME!

I was taken aback when I first saw that signing photo but then sigh of relief, those aren’t Muslims, they’re nuns!

I see monks & a rabbi, too. Good on Indiana!

So, Cummins thinks it's wrong to let private business owners who have a religious objection to refuse service?

Let's find a Muslim bakery and have them make a cake stating “Mohammad was a child molester.” Let's hire a gay baker to make a cake stating, “Homosexuality is a sign of mental disease.” Then explain that this is supported by Cummins.

I say that more Christians buy Cummins than do gays.

Refuse to buy all Cummins’ products.

The issue that you raise is something that started when corporations started developing community outreach departments (or something similar). From that point on, they started introducing people into the company structure who thought that social work/social policy was just as important as the true function of the company (i.e. to offer a product or service at a competitive price). When corporations ditch the “social work” departments and staff, then they can focus on their true function.

We should put a list together of the people and corps attacking Indiana, so we know who to do business with.

The U. S. Constitution includes religious freedom as one of the protected rights, but it doesn’t include homosexual behavior as a protected right.

Hmmmm . . . .
