No chance at override, some Republicans who voted for it have already flip flopped and I doubt it passed veto proof in the first place.
One flat out said “perception is all that matters”. They are worried about losing the Superbowl and major corporations. Can’t watch ESPN till this is over, the bastards are preaching on gay rights, one POS complained he’s “concerned” she’s poised to veto the bill because it could hurt the state’s image rather than because “it’s the right thing”. The right thing for a bakery to get sued to death if they won’t make a wedding cake for a couple of dykes.
I would have signed bill as soon as it crossed my desk.
Given how well the left's previous "Arizona boycott" worked out, I really wouldn't give them the time of day no matter how much they foam at the mouth over this one and get the media to scream about how "bigoted" AZ is. For whatever reason, people will still visit and relocate to AZ in droves ("it's a dry heat", apparently. Whatever. I'd prefer a state with nice beaches and golf courses like South Carolina over barren dessert).
I agree with Impy that I'd sign the bill without a moment's hesitation and I'm surprised Brewer is feeling pressured by them. I'll be very disappointed if she caves on this.
Sounds like the pro-gays got the corporations on their side, and NFL threatening to punish the state, Brewer is not going to stand against them over this.
From what I understand this law would only affect the businesses in cities in AZ who currently have anti-discrimination laws regarding sexual preference, there is no state law that does that.
The Federal courts have not yet created that law out of the constitution, except in some cases marriage itself.

Yes.
Like I’m wont say, when there’s a question, the answer is Einsatzgruppen.
