Dear NFL
Meet Jessica
Jessica is 15 yrs old and lives in GA. She has spent the last 2 yrs volunteering for the leadership team for Children's ministry at her church. She leaves the house every Sunday at 8:30 am and stays until well after 12:30. She is in her high school musical. She is involved in leadership training for the youth group at her church, and she also takes dance classes.
She takes cosmetology at Hiram High School, and has even been to a competition representing her school.
Jessica also has already been on a mission trip to El Salvador. She worked very hard to raise the $1700 she needed to take that trip.
With so many different gifts and talents, I don't know where she will land in her future.
What I do know, is that I want her to be free and have every opportunity to pursue her dreams.
What if she becomes a hair dresser, and owns her own salon? What if she follows her faith the best way she knows how and cannot be true to herself and her faith when someone asks her to do the hairstyles for a wedding party? This young girl has never backed away from a challenge. She has always given her whole heart to everything she chooses to dive into.
I don't want her to be in a world where her entire life's dream and work would be stripped from her because she cannot participate in a party she never asked to be invited to. Or even the threat that it could be taken away from her by a lawsuit.
THAT is not who we are.
We do NOT threaten the dream and the livelihood of our citizens for merely trying to live out their faith. A peaceful faith. A faith that means no ill will or harm to any fellow citizen.
If the NFL can forgive the likes of Michael Vick, and Ray Lewis, why can they not allow forgiveness for Jessica?
The question is not rhetorical. I want an honest answer.

Individuals can usually be easily categorized as either happy or unhappy. If she is a happy person she will be happy, if not, she won’t.
If she enjoys complaining and pointing out the shortcomings of others there is no hope for happiness (at least for those around her)
What other constitutional right should she be HAPPY to give up?? Just curious
What is this story even about? Did the NFL do something to someone that I should care about? Without some background this story does not compute.
SO Sorry! Yes— the NFL is threatening to pull out of the state GA over a RFRA Bill.... Religious Liberty Bill... along with Disney, AMC, Marvel, Delta, Home Depot, etc etc....but they do business in other states with the same dang bill... oh, and in the US you know that country with the First Amendment...
But hey— business in countries like China, and the Middle East is way ok
Hey guys? This about the NFL pulling out of Georgia based on a religious freedom referendum. Jessica is on our side.
My wife mentioned some blowback about the Religious Liberty Bill. It is hard to imagine that Delta and Home Depot would waste billions to move out of Georgia. Hartsfield-Jackson Airport shutdown and empty seems as insane as the empty threat.
I'll wait for Trumps inauguration when this inane political correctness will be passé.
???
What an absurd, lily livered, kumbaya, platitudinal statement.
Are you really that thick?
Yes, I had no clue what this was about as I previously posted, I have not watched the local news in years.
Governor Deal will sign the bill and the foolishness will blow over.
The office of our Governor is just inside the front door of the State Capitol building. The Georgia General Assembly meets just down the hall and Governor Deal is aware of everything that goes on there.
