I have tried to point out some of the blatantly obvious signs to my acquaintance friend, and I swear I can hear an audible click when his brain slams shut. His reply is always something like: "it's just a phase; the US will recover [referring to the incomprehensibly massive federal debt] and life will return back to normal as it always does. You need to stop getting your news off the internet."
And if I try to use scripture to point out the signs, (he says he is a believer but he has never read any scripture, only knows what his priest tells him to know) his eyes glaze over.
I'm just stunned at the willful ignorance when the signs around us are so numerous and growing rapidly.
Hello.
Some problems with your proposal, and a suggestion.
-if you specify that ONLY gay marriages would be dealt with this way, that would be seen as discrimination.
-the language in that sign would be used as evidence of animus and intent to discriminate.
However, what you could do is state that 10% (for example) of ALL purchases would go to those organizations, that would be entirely legal and would probably serve the same purpose.
Personally, I think that would be the reasonable way to go without opening yourself to any lawsuits.
