When reading that the federal government would impose $1.3 million per day fine on this business and its Christian owners for not providing baby killing coverage, I had a sudden vision that we are headed for a uprising. Such persecution cannot be tolerated. The only way to get serious attention of federal courts and agencies seems to be, I am sorry to say, an uprising.
If the federal government wants to bill people direct for their baby killing coverage, fine and they can deal with the backlash. Leave businesses and their sponsored health coverage alone!
SUPPORT HOBBY LOBBY Hobby Lobby is one of the few stores that carries the Krylon Looking Glass Spray Paint needed to make those wonderful antique mercury glass look-alike items. The mercury glass objects look great in Christmas displays with votive lights flickering inside----I used cobalt blue accent pieces.
Examples of Krylon sprayed on clear glass items---lots of tutorials on-line.
