This country is irretrievably FUBAR.
I like Indiana Governor Pence but it appears he’s gonna cave like Brewer did in Arizona. The values talk goes out the window when there’s the threat of a boycott. The shallow, deceptive media make it sound like if a gay person comes into a diner or auto store, they’re going to be denied service. Who cares about sexual orientation at most businesses? This is about forcing florists, bakers, photographers to violate their consciences by working gay weddings.
Why can’t Pence communicate this?! Why doesn’t he (and all for religious freedom) bring up the example of the gay wedding in which they were trying to force a baker to write filthy slurs against the Bible on a “wedding” cake?!!!
“Summary: Freedom of Speech or the Press is the freedom from government officials making speech or writings they find too critical of their affairs a seditious crime. Under common law, people had to be careful of any criticism they wrote or said about government policy, laws or official conduct out of fear of being charged with a seditious crime where truth would be of no defense.”
““it was not to be permitted to any man to make the people dissatisfied with the Government under which he lives.” Henry VIII once made it a high treason crime to suggest his marriage to Anne of Cleves was valid even though it was the truth.”
