Hillary and Barry are on the bandwagon, too, I'm sure you'll be surprised to learn.

The Apple CEO had better start playing more Steve Jobs and less Bawney Fwank.

I buy computer hardware and software from his company, not advice on boinking another guy.

It’s the Indiana law the same as the federal law that Bill Clinton signed?

Individual moral views notwithstanding, freedom to choose ("discrimination") is our right and our privilege.

MLK helped give discriminating (freedom to choose) a bad name. But we as individuals have every constitutional right to choose and discriminate however we want.

The only constitutional limitation on choosing or discriminating is prohibition of STATE SEGREGATION laws against blacks (14th Amendment).

There is NO constitutional limitation on individual discrimination AT ALL.

A state can discriminate against gays or anyone else except blacks.

Apple’s CEO wants to get Apples name in the press.

The WaPo opinion piece is just an Apple advert wrapped in social commentary. With WaPo providing the space for free.

Oh...got it...sexual deviancy laws are like Segregation, Timmy

Got it

Not being able to stifle the urge when you see a little boy makes you part of a nation deserving of legal protection, right Tim?

I’m wondering why shareholders aren’t out to muzzle this guy before he kills the golden goose...

Cook utters nonsense. This country has been good to big business. Now big businesses, at least some of them, are turning against it, fighting our core values, one of them freedom of religion.

"That’s why, on behalf of Apple, I’m standing up to oppose this new wave of legislation — wherever it emerges."

Like the 19 states and federal government which already has this legislation? I'm sure you'll be taking on Clinton soon for signing this...

So now high dollar corporations feel justified in telling individual states how to write their laws. They’re relying on the momentum of dumb emotion, the same dumb emotions that have “Obama-ed” America in a scorched earth kind of way.

I don’t own many Apple products but this guarantees I will not own any more. These homofascists are everywhere.

The op-ed from Cook, who is gay and grew up in Jim Crow Alabama, served as one of the fullest throated criticisms to date...

Yeah, and Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act and Obama said marriage is between one man and one woman.

Great tactics to try again in this battle!

Tim Cook used to keep his private life private and I respected that. Too bad that now that the man has “come out” he feels the need to be involved in everything gay.
