What if the bakers crumbled communion wafers into the batter and said a prayer over the cake for the homos’ conversions?
And then served it up with a gentle, knowing smile?
Governor Pence, you are cowardly piece of Sh*t!
It would’ve been better if you never signed this law into being. Now you look like the Left’s Bit*h!
We are surrounded by cowards!
From hero to zero.
[[and facing the threat of big stores and factories leaving Indiana, its Republican governor,]]
Shame, He could have invited other big businesses who had better morals into his state to conduct business, perhaps even giving them tax breaks to encourage them to move to his state and fill the welcomed hole left by the departing sin loving businesses
Christian owned big businesses should call him up and threaten to leave his state!
14th Amendment, Section 1:All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Note that the “privileges or immunities” term which John Bingham, the main author of Section 1, used in that section is just another way to refer to constitutionally enumerated rights, most of these well-known rights, including 1st Amendment-protected freedom of religious expression, listed in the Bill of Rights.
So with or without the Indiana religious freedom law, the constitutional religious freedoms of Indiana citizens, including business owners, are protected from their state government by 14A, and therefor from people who would otherwise be customers if as customers they respected the religious convictions of business owners imo.
The problem, as we’ve been seeing in other states, is that the Constitution cannot protect citizens if citizens don’t know their constitutional protections, especially since legal counsel may not know constitutional protections any better than business owners do; the blind leading the blind.
And I wouldn’t be surprised if low-information state officials in the pro-gay activist states who have been giving Christian business owners problems are unaware that 14A exists.
Insights, corrections welcome.
I doubt it was the “gays” who voted him in. It’s the very people he’s screwing over who voted his worthless carcass in. I hope he gets what’s coming to him.
Pence can literally go f@ck himself.
Coward is dead to me forever.
Nossa!
Vocé fala verdaje
Muito bem
The muslims and the Gaystapo both have the same war plan.
Governor Pence either did not know what he was doing when he signed both versions of the bill or he is a sellout. I tend to believe it was ignorance. Either way, he and the Republican legislature have done enormous damage to the state’s constituents religious freedoms. I hope at some point he understands just how stupid this was.
Find a Homo print shop and tell them you have an order for 100 "Gog Hates Fags" placards or T-Shirts.
1 John 3:16New International Version (NIV)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
Governor Pence is just another Chamber of Commerce crony capitalist.
If he had any leadership qualities, he would have called the NCAA’s bluff and told them they could go ahead and play their Final Four elsewhere.
He would also have invited Wally World and snApple to go ahead and cut off their nose to spite their face.
But, no...
| www.dol.gov U.S. Department of Labor Forced Labor The internationally recognized definition of forced or compulsory labor is found in ILO Convention 29. According to this Convention, forced or compulsory labor is "all work or service which is exacted from any person under the menace of any penalty and for which the said person has not offered himself voluntarily." ILO Convention 105 further specifies that forced labor should never be used for the purpose of economic development or as a means of political coercion, discrimination, labor discipline or punishment for having participated in strikes. |
Its not clear to me that this is the case.
All the cases I have seen posted here were where the baker refused to sell the gays a wedding cake at all, giving libs the ammunition that they could similarly refuse to sell a wedding cake to mixed race couples, or serve gays in a restaurant.
Each debate on this on TV the libs brought up the mixed race wedding example to use to beat up their opponents.(and it seems to be working)
Pence abandoned this fight pretty fast, never talked about any of this.
They keep using these analogies and they are ridiculously inappropriate. Refusing to cater to homosexuals can fall under the protection of one's religious beliefs. Refusing to cater to Klansmen and Nazis does not. However, neither Klansmen or Nazis are a protected class so they can't sue for discrimination.
Just out of curiosity, in Indiana, can the KKK demand a Black baker to make cakes decorated with remarks that the baker finds offense ?
My gay friends are still hating on Indiana
