“Of course, nobody thinks that a person should be denied employment because of their private sex life.”
What does the Law in 94’ have to do with laws that always have been on the book?
Anyone explain this one to me...I thought it was illegal before to fire someone based on sexual orientation (along with a laundry list of other things)? What was this new law (in 94’) about and why does it alter the situation?
“Of course, nobody thinks that a person should be denied employment because of their private sex life.”
Got any evidence that anyone is denied employment under current law?
Problem is, these federal or state or even city-level mandates extend far beyond those employers who don’t care and are more than happy to offer employment.
They extend to employers who do care, and compel behavior nonetheless.
For example, should a Christian bookstore be compelled by law — state or federal — to hire an individual who openly identifies himself as being involved in homosexual behavior?
Should Focus on the Family (or anyone else) be compelled to hire a man who insists on wearing a pink skirt to work and using the women’s restroom, locker room, and shower?
I don’t think there was any “law” in 1994. I didn’t say anything about such a thing. The only significance to “1994” is that 1994 is the year Romney ran for Senate.
