It restricts no one.
It guarantees freedom of association for business owners.
It protects business owners from lawsuits.

And people are outraged???

Obviously none of these people actually know scripture nor have they been sued by a very small vocal minority.

Well surprise, surprise, the owner of a costume shop wants the sodomites to know they are welcome.

Seriously look at the idiotic comments by this motley crew of losers and you know the bill was a good idea.

I bet I can think of a few costumes that Suzy Blesch would refuse to provide for me. ;-)

Curious response from the so-called “live and let live” crowd.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the chamber of commerce is behind this.

The constant bombardment of anti-Christian propaganda has taken its toll even here in Georgia, where a similar bill has apparently been deep-sixed by the gay lobby and the Chamber of Commerce.

Some people don’t believe in liberty. Some people believe in forcing others to bend to their will.

One large company is already reducing its operations there as a result.

""I think to call it religious freedom is a farce," Blesch said."

I’ll betcha that Ms Blesch has never been taught the following. Section 1 of the 14th Amendment prohibits the states from making laws / policies which unreasonably abridge constitutionally enumerated rights, the 1st Amendment-protected freedom of religious expression in this case.

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.

So this new Indiana law actually protects the state as well as protecting 1st Amendment-protected religious express of Indiana business owners. In fact, note that several pro-gay activist states have already violated Section 1.

Talk about propaganda: I’m loving this as classic neo-Nazi Goebbels lies:

Other businesses in Evansville, including bars and restaurants, are also taking a similar stance against the law, says the lying scribbler.

“I do believe that everybody should be treated fairly,” Cassandra Watkins, a bartender at Side-Track, said.

The lying scribbler tells the reader that “other businesses, including bars and restaurants” are against the law. Then the liar quotes one friggin bartender. One bartender is NOT a representation of “other businesses, including bars and restaurants.

The lying creep who wrote this swill should be dragged into the street and whipped.

Seriously, F the subhuman scum who were selected to be interviewed. They DO NOT represent Indiana, and props to Pence for signing this bill in spite of tremendous pressure. Makes Jan Brewer look like the political wh*** she is.

FREEDOM WINS

I used this example earlier today in a discussion with some youngsters (I just turned 40) who thought this law was just plain evil:

I love the clothes from Banana Republic, but darn it, they only go up to size 16 and I wear an 18. They’re discriminating against and hate fat people because they only offer smaller sizes. The government should force them to provide larger sizes. The Gap offers clothes up to size 20, I could shop there, but I want the clothes from Banana Republic.

No one would admit that this example is the same thing as what’s being talked about in Indiana.

Suzy Blesch sounds like an idiot. The objection to serving gays is not being raised by people who own shops or restaurants, but by those who are being forced to participate in gay marriage ceremonies that violate their religious beliefs.
