Freedom of association is not a “special right.”

Good for Kansas! We all know where this immorality is heading-revoking the tax exempt status of Churches that won’t marry homosexuals.

Now they’re calling the First Amendment “special rights”. Turnabout is fair play, yes?

As if discrimination were a bad thing. The Constitution is a discriminating document. Deal with it.

The left is throwing monkey wrenches into good order and decency. Rebuke and ridicule are their just reward. Under no circumstances should we allow them in places of authority.

This is a GOD-GIVEN right of very basic liberty being reinforced due to corrupt judicial decisions elsewhere. Let these geeks whine while they suck each other in their highrise. Kansas does not give a damn.

'The bill would protect the ability of any individual, government agency, or "religious entity" (which includes a business operated in accordance with owner's religious views) to refuse service based on sincere religious beliefs about sex or gender, and to refuse to recognize any marriage or similar arrangement for those reasons — even if such service would otherwise be required under Kansas law. '

The Kansas law is absurd. We don't need more laws. We 'should' already have the ability to pick and choose who we provide service for. This law only 'provides' protection based on views toward sex, gender, marriage etc. That is a very limited amount of empowerment.

Doesn’t sound like a special right to me. Sounds like they don’t want to be trapped by new special government powers that will force them to violate their conscience.

In other words, a special new right to discriminate on a particular basis.

We like to call it "FREEDOM".

Actually, the writer has it backwards - the bill protects the rights of proprietors to run their businesses the way they think best for the enterprise and themselves, and not to be subject to the special interests and demands of certain chosen and preferred minorities - it avoids the imposition of special rights for special people.....

We have a God given authority for those “special rights.”

So, it’s a special right when those who demand special rights are denied same? In other words, it’s the typical leftist view of the world as a zero sum game.

Want to make a difference ? Start your own vocal group Be your own precinct captain The piece below is designed to be printed up and passed around your precinct and your friends and neighbors as a half sheet flyer. On the face (REVERSE SIDE)or below the slogan you can put the name of the candidate you favor and the election dates...EXCELLENT FOR SLIPPING UNDER WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON CARS PARKED IN KEY PARKING LOTS CHURCHES, RALLY SITES....

The following comments are supported by the circulator of this flyer and not necessarily those of the candidate endorsed by the circulator
Did you know the Democrat party voted to remove any reference to God at their 2012 national convention ? And when they decided it was a mistake and unpolitical they rammed the change to put it back in like they voted for Obamacare.But delegates booed the decision. The Democrat is not the party of JFK or even FDR. It’s a queer hyphenated marriage between socialists and “progressives” They are now Demo-Coms.

DEMO-COMS ARE
GOD DENIERS AND PREDACIOUS LIARS
PREACH REDISTRIBUTE
YOUR WEALTH INCITERS/
FIRST YOUR MONEY THEN YOUR GUNS
ISSUING DECREES OF MANY COME
DEMAND SURRENDERING CHOICES ONE BY ONE
INTO REGIMENTATION YOU MUST RUN
AND NOW THEIR ROBOT YOU’VE BECOME

It’s time to get a government run by a lying Godless political party OUT
OUT of Our faces
Our religions and and Our pocketbooks

No not going to allow you to get away with this. The special “rights” are those wanted by the homosexuals to force people to be accepting of an participatant of their perversions. Our rights to freely practice our religion were inshrined in the Constitution. You think the founders wanted homosexuals to marry? Yeah right.........-
