If she vetoes this law (I hope she doesn’t), does this mean that Christian churches, as well as synagogues, will not be able to refuse to perform a pretend wedding for two mixed-up people of the same gender?
I am surprised that the homosexual mafia has not yet started coming after the Bible-believing churches. I suppose that will be next. God help us.
Shame on the cowardly GOP members in the legislature now urging her to veto it. If Brewer does that, it’s the final nail in her political coffin. Sign the damn bill and protect Christians from the insane judiciary.
If it gets vetoed, does that mean I can go to any women-only group/school/gym, tell them I am gay and they have to admit me?
A much better column than yesterday’s Jesus Baking a Cake nonsense!
Is this the legislation we’re talking about? http://www.azleg.gov/legtext/51leg/2r/bills/sb1062p.pdf . If so, I don’t see how it could be controversial. It doesn’t grant any new rights, or rescind any existing rights.
I actually feel sorry for her. She is in a tough place right now. She is getting so much pressure from both sides. I think if it was just the gays that were pressuring her, it would not be a big deal. The straight’s are coming for her to not veto this. What is wrong with the “normal” people today?
Looked at strategically, arguments can be made in either direction.
On the surface, Brewer should sign the bill. However, it will be immediately challenged in court, and so many federal judges now worship at the homosexual altar that it will likely be overturned and set a precedent. Remember that AZ falls under the millstone of the 9th Circuit.
Right now, we do not want this challenge to go before the US Supreme Court, because the duplicitous Justice Kennedy is almost guaranteed to vote in favor of homosexuality, making it a 5-4 liberal decision.
Right now, it is not easy to sue for such discrimination in AZ, but if this law is overturned, it may make it much easier to challenge the morality of businesses.
All told, federal judges will dictate to AZ’s elected leaders what they can and cannot do, so it is probably best that they are not given the opportunity.
