"Following the lead of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Mr. de Blasio also said he would ban non-essential city travel to the Hoosier State. "

I think it would be much, much better if he would ban non-essential city travel to everywhere.

Mayor de Blah-Blah can go jump off the Empire State Building!

Well, to tell you what I’ve thought about this legislation, all along, is that it’s the “gay issue” that brought it out ... BUT ... it’s not JUST about gays, but preventing Christian business owners from being forced into do several things that they consider to be VIOLATIONS of deeply-held religious convictions!

I posted elsewhere ...

— — —

To me, this kind of legislation seems to have a lot more to do with OTHER THINGS, other than gays. It seems that the “gay issue” is driving the discussion, but to me, that “gay issue” seems to be a minor point, as compared to ALL of what legislation guaranteeing “Christian Conscience” in business is about.

Unless I’m mistaken about what this kind of bill means, I see this bill as preserving the “conscience” of a Christian owner of a business from serving or doing business with a person who violates that “religious conscience” by who they are or what they represent or what they stand for. SO, in that sense, it is NOT TARGETED at gays, but all sorts of other things that would violate the “Christian’s conscience”!

A sampling of some other things I can think of, in which one would DENY SERVICE to people, would be a group coming in for Pizza who supports ABORTION! That would really violate a Christian’s conscience.

Or, if a Mormon church group came in and had an “after church Pizza gathering” some Sunday afternoon. I would DENY THEM SERVICE as they are one of the largest CULT GROUPS in America ... and as far as I’m concerned Mormons shouldn’t get service from ANY CHRISTIAN BUSINESS WHATSOEVER, ANYWHERE!!

If Mitt Romney were to come in to that Pizza place he SHOULD BE DENIED SERVICE because of clearly being a Mormon!

I would DENY SERVICE to GLENN BECK, too, for his Mormonism!

SO ... it doesn’t appear to be a “gay issue” but a VERY REAL “Religious Conscience” issue and opens the door to CHRISTIAN BUSINESS to serving Christians and not VIOLATING their religious conscience!

Bill de Blasio needs to STFU and continue running his city into the ground.

These demented tyrants will never be able to dictate what our thoughts and beliefs should be.

In the end they will lose.

DeBlasio is wasting his talents as mayor of NY City.

He should be traveling the country teaching others how to convert black lesbians into normal, healthy heterosexual women.

RE: Indiana Religious Law Is ‘Doomed to Failure’

Only if conservatives give up the fight and allow themselves to be intimidated.

Looking at how Governors Pence and Hutchinson are reacting, I am slowly and reluctantly inclined to believe that De Blasio might be right.

I notice one thing that is happening -— Democrats ( O’Malley, de Blasio, Hillary, the MSM, Tim Cook, Walmart, etc. ) are all tag teaming to attack RFRA on one side.

On the other side, I don’t see ANY UNITED FRONT from Christians, Conservatives and Republicans defending the law.

How do you expect to win the fight when you allow the other side to throw all the kicks and punches and you simply try to duck for cover?

Or is it the case that you’ve surrendered already?

Where is the Daniel who will dare to stand for what is right in the face of danger?

Pence has already caved. He should not have granted any interviews and should have simply said the issue is not up for debate.

You deal with the Left by standing your ground, not accepting their premise, and let them stew in their own juices. Obviously, Pence have not learned from Mr. Cathy of Chick-fil-A and the Robertsons.

The Left simply want Christians punished for opposing gay wedding. You can’t have an opposing view
