I'm pretty outraged by this, and I'm amazed this can even happen in this day and age.. What do you guys think? Denying LGBTQP tax paying Americans the right to hospital care, police response and general things due to their sexuality? I imagine this would be difficult to enforce as you can't always look at somebody and 'know' they're gay. But I don't feel this is right at all.

because its a fucking blog link.

This is so dumb. Someone right their names in a damn death note. Or maybe we can start a protest campaign.

I'm not sure why religious people think they should have the 'right' to refuse service to and directly affect whomever they don't like, but gay people don't have the right to just be given the same service as anyone else. It doesn't make sense that just because their intolerance for gays stems from their religion, it becomes more important.

Why can't a religion that requires the mass slaughter of middle-aged men every Tuesday be granted the same right?

This doesn't seem like a religious ordeal, but just one person thinking they are more important than another and the government supporting that.

Religion is a tool. Smh.


>>2 No one gives a shit, anyone can google it.

Wow. I'm indifferent on the whole "gay rights" matter, but if this is true it's pretty damn ridiculous.

Guys, it isn't fucking religion that causes this, it's people.

It's like blaming spoiled milk on cows.

>>5 Obviously someone gives a shit, fag.
You are a tool.

Also, the gays can go to other people.
This is how a magical free market starts guys.
Instead of trying to combat the people that don't want to serve you, and shouldn't be made to serve you as individuals, they should be focusing on who does want to serve them.

>>7 Religion is the only reason it's being allowed. If it were the shopkeepers simply saying 'I hate gays', I doubt they'd be given the same treatment. However, it's people that have given religion that elevated importance, so in that sense I guess you are right.

>>8 A true free market is anarchy. I don't want to live in a society where a business can refuse to serve me because they don't like me. I'd like some rules in place to protect me. This isn't just about not being able to go out to dinner (not being able to get luxuries has never been important), but not getting an ambulance to save my life because their religion discriminates against me? I think that's too far.

>>9 I agree that it's too far, and it speaks wildly about the amber lance driver's character.

I'm Asexual so... Everybody sucks. XD

"I don't think there is any sense in trying to beat a dead horse on this bill that basically legalizes discrimination."

And there you have it.
