Critics say the Religious Freedom Restoration Act legalizes discrimination

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed a bill into law Thursday that allows business owners to deny same-sex couples service on religious grounds, then quickly defended it. Within hours, Star Trek actor and LGBT activist George Takei took his outrage to Twitter using the hashtag #BoycottIndiana, which began trending.

Democratic lawmakers, LGBT rights activists and civil liberties groups have argued that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act legalizes discrimination.

According to the left, a bill protecting people from discrimination and being forced to participate in a lifestyle they don't agree with is "discrimination." They believe you should be able to harass people out of existence for being people of faith - taking away their means of providing food and shelter for themselves and their families if you don't want to participate in their lifestyle - and not forcing them to do so is "discrimination". As the phrase goes: Liberal Logic 101: Yes, they are that stupid

He doesn’t want tolerance, he wants domination and control. How very authoritarian of him.

Another fag speaks. I'm sure the majority of those living in Indiana wish queers would boycott their state.

Just think of how healthy this is for the state of Indiana? The homos can keep their STDs in CA. The world is on fire, and these idiots only care about an act in Indiana? No wonder this country is in such dire straits.

Go to hell, Sulu, you fascist faggot.

At least some states are now fighting back scumbags like you, who are doing everything you can to attack, punish, bankrupt and potentially even jail Christians exercising their religious rights and freedoms.

Yes, die and go to hell, you Nazi pervert!

The problem with boycotting Indiana, if one were inclined (I’m not), is that there is absolutely nothing there to boycott. I spent 20 years in Indiana one summer. There is no more boring state in the entire union. If you carved the entire state out of the nation and dropped it in the Pacific, it would be months before anyone would notice it was gone.

So I can walk into a halal or kosher butcher and demand bacon? I don’t think so.

Interesting that someone who produces no goods or services, but is known solely for their sexual preference, calls for a boycott on people who DO produce goods and services.

He’s afraid other states will follow the trend, & blow the homosexual agenda out of the water.

How can these hypocrite performers boycott ?

They content you must provide services if someone wants to hire you

If a Christian singer is required to preform at a gay wedding even though she objected to it

How are performers/ actors like Takei not required to preform in Indiana if some one wants to hire Takei even though he objects?

If this guy had been in music, he would have been known as a one hit wonder. Lighten up Georgie. You aren’t all that important.
