Re: Arizona lawmakers pass controversial anti-gay bill
BAM!! Vetoed!
BAM!! Vetoed!
Let me ask you this: Do you care one way or another if discrimination takes place?
And they have every right to sell their whatever, nobody it stopping them.
However, when you open a business to the public you no longer can pick and choose. It is the public or nothing. You want to sell only to a select group, open a membership only private business that is not geared to serve the public.
True, but having laws that specifically allow it does act on it.
What you are saying is that to discriminate is a right or that discrimination can not exist.
Do you or would you like to be the victim of discrimination?
Nor do they have the right to discriminate in a place that by intent, their intent, is public.
No one is asking them to.
Laws are designed to keep order in society and most of the time prohibit certain actions. In the cases where they are prohibitive in nature they exist because the action they prohibit negatively impacts society. if the action did not exist there would be no need for such laws. We both know that discrimination does exist and that is why laws against it exist. Such laws NEVER compel anyone to do anything in a public setting but prohibit certain actions. If one is averse to such actions one can always avoid facing situations where one can be exposed to them.
So atheist business owners could deny service to religious customers, so long as they assert that it's because of their atheism? Bet that would make a lot of religious idiots scream.
"anti gay bill" leave it to CNN to make this something different than what it is.:roll:
She said the bill had broad wording that could lead to problems up the road.
This issue isn't going away. As liberal totalitarianism gets worse and more Human Rights are eroded, some state will fire the first shot to launch the new Civil Rights battle of our era. It's always difficult being the first out of the gate. Look at the long struggle that blacks had to endure before the ball got rolling in that battle.

ROFL. You are kidding, right?
LOLOLOLOLOL Pass me the bong.
BOOM!!!
that crap got vetoed just like i said
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer vetoes SB 1062 - CNN.com
but rest assured there will be more panic and fear and or bigotry spark up since equality is winning
I should have asked a better question, but correct me if I am wrong I will assume you frown upon the act.Yes.
What law am I supporting? This is about me being against a law that clearly protects bigotry.You're just supporting the law with the law.
?That doesn't work towards arguing your point.
But this is about discrimination not politics.Well, you either take baby steps or do nothing most of the time. That is just the nature of the beast of politics.
Not at all. Does discrimination exist? No emotion, yes or no will do this time.Emotional appeal.
Yes it is, you just can not discriminate when you put it up for sale to the public.Nope, private property is private.
Irrelevant.Can people sue if they don't? Yes.
By opposing discrimination and bigotry? Brilliant deduction.No, that is statist drivel that leads to tyranny.
And discriminationCrimes are those acts by which one man harms the person or property of another.
Not at the expense of the rights of others.A just law can only ever be one that protects the rights of people.
Nice spin. This is just one more dagger in rightwing TOTALITARIANISM.
You are on the wrong side of mainstream America.
The right used to tell the hippies, "love it or leave it."
I think it is now more civil just to say to the right, "Adapt and improvise."
America will forever advance and be on the side of liberty. Let freedom ring.
Social conservative oppression is a thing of the past. It will no longer be tolerated in America. One step at a time. Forward.
God bless America.
Eventually even outposts of racism and bigotry like Arizona and Texas will get the message. They just have this overwhelming need to publicly humiliate themselves every so often and then they get smacked down. They'll be back. Or maybe they'll move to Uganda or Russia, where their feelings about gay people are widely shared.
Everybody who isn't a right wing dingbat understood that even a bulb as dim as Jan Brewer couldn't let this piece of crap become law.

Compared to, where is it you said you lived? What state?
