Propaganda: The overreaction by politicians and advocacy groups to Indiana´s religious freedom law is distressing enough. Worse is the fact that big companies are now amplifying the disinformation campaign.

Defining deviancy down is the mantra for today’s liberals. So perversion trumps religion in this country today. A maximum of 2% of the people claim the “right” to persecute anyone that has any religious beliefs. Today you can lose your business, your house and savings by standing by your beliefs. This is done to try to legitimize a lifestyle choice. How far will this country be allowed to sink before we get back to reality? I don’t care what people do behind closed doors but the continual waving their actions in my face will bring out this reaction again and again. The deviant do not deserve any more laws protecting them. It is the normal people that need protection in this day and age.
And don’t start whining about the word perversion before you look it up.
Right there in your previous sentence... "it is actually based on his own one statement."
In the best liberal tradition, you took what was said, distort, interpret, and rewrite/redefine, then attribute all of your mendacity to the original.
Time for the NFL to move the Super Bowl out of San Francisco and California.
“it is actually based on his own one statement.”
That was a lie? Outside of calling everyone “Apple haters”, that was the only actual statement he made on the story, and that was for his little Ping list. And that one statement was wesley-worded, and had no logic as I pointed out.
“In the best liberal tradition, you took what was said, distort, interpret, and rewrite/redefine, then attribute all of your mendacity to the original.”
He wrote it. If you don’t like what he said, take it up with him.
Yup. You seem to think your "...one statement was wesley-worded, and had no logic as I pointed out" statement carries the authority of Holy Writ.
It does not.
That you don't seem to understand that "distinction without difference" is no difference speaks to the woeful slide in intellectual literacy FR has suffered in the past several years.
You're kidding, right?
The NFL is completely on board with attacking the Four Olds.
San Francisco should become the permanent home of the Super Bowl.
“Yup. You seem to think your “...one statement was wesley-worded, and had no logic as I pointed out” statement carries the authority of Holy Writ.”
So when are you actually going to point out where I’m lying?
Here it is again:
“More mixing of CEO Tim Cook’s reprehensible personal agenda with Apple company policy”
It isnt his “personal agenda”. He is CEO of Apple. Apple’s board is not protesting. Apple’s shareholders are not in revolt. His op-ed was penned and printed as him being CEO of Apple, where he pledges to use the resources and power of that company to fight against this and similar laws. Also this is not the first time he and his company has targeted this.
Now tell me where their “company policy” differs. It was a worded that way on purpose. Sorry.
If artists (photographers, cake makers, florists, t-shirt printers, etc.) are not permitted to turn down work from parties they disagree with, does this mean that entertainers won’t have right of refusal in the 2016 election for their songs to be played at campaign rallies?
You need to observe "the first rule of holes." Your assumptions are NOT self-evident.
Are you gonna tell us it was Steve Jobs agenda to drive out Steve Jobs during his first tenure at Apple?
“Are you gonna tell us it was Steve Jobs agenda to drive out Steve Jobs during his first tenure at Apple?”
You seriously want to compare these two things? Are you seriously going to state out loud that Apple’s board is going to vote out Cook as CEO because of this? After Cook has already slammed Alabama on the same issue, and the company fired a person they found out his views on homosexuality? After they have emphatically stated their fidelity to gay causes?
Please tell me yes. I would LOVE to see that written.
This is NOT personal Cook agenda. This is part of the mission and identity of that company that has been taken up several notches. I’d advise you to wake up. Apple isnt your buddy or close friend. They now have a target on all of us with all of those billions some folks on FR bragged about them making.
Why didn't he have the guts to out himself?
If he is so proud to be homosexual
Who and/or what is his wife/husband? Does he have a partner or just cruise bathhouses, rest areas on the interstate, homo-porn websites?
Yes.
Are you seriously going to state out loud that Apple’s board is going to vote out Cook as CEO because of this?
Are you seriously going to put words in my mouth after I just finished calling you down for putting words in someone else's mouth?
I'm done. Please refer to my final comment in post #19.
It’s a promo stunt to push the iWatch among a certain group with disposable income.
Well they aren’t the same. Nice try though.
“Are you seriously going to put words in my mouth after I just finished calling you down for putting words in someone else’s mouth?”
I showed how your example YOU GAVE is not analogous to today. It isnt even on the same planet. Sorry.
LIAR! I've made many more comments on this subject than just one. . . And you continue to LIE about me in every post you write concerning me. You are a practitioner of Alinsky's Rules for Radicals numbers 5 and 12. ASSHAT!

This is going to get a lot uglier before it resolves. I predict that Tim Cook is going to use that media focus to push Apple to the front of the group of companies -- hell it will be a competition to see which company and which CEO can be the most homosexual-supporting. As if this has anything to do with computers or business.
Gaaaaackkkk. And if he thinks leading this assault is going to be good for business, he's dead wrong. Unfortunately at the moment he's not thinking at all about the business. This is his moment in the gay world spotlight and he's playing it for all it's worth. Not enough that he's the CEO of the most valuable company in the world, no that's not enough. His freakin' sexuality is more important than anything else and he's gonna tell the world, and they have to listen!
In doing so, he may well wreck the company that Steve Jobs worked so hard to build, and then rebuild after the debacles of '85-'95.
I am deeply disappointed in Cook. And Steve Jobs may well have to come back from the grave to straighten this mess out. I can't imagine how this would end well otherwise. And so I'm afraid this will not end well at all.
True, the Indiana law was merely an extension of a law passed 23 years ago (and already enacted by other states). Unfortunately, during that time the Gay Mafia has gotten more vicious.
While perusing other threads on the topic, I stomached some incredibly off the wall comments, several of which bragged that “right wing wackos” are on the wrong side of history. To which I answered that the liberals are eventually becoming history themselves. Any society, once it throws away its moral framework & traditions, ends up in the dustbin.
I need a new tablet, but will nix the iPad.
Cook always struck me as asexual. Sort of a repressed, colorless individual. Probably relies on websites.
