Thank you for blowing the lid off that scam website.

My brother encountered exactly what you just post about.

The Indy headquarters should be raided

I reject the premise.

It’s not an anti-gay law or anti-anything law.

It’s a pro religious freedom law for everyone. Nobody can coerce them to go against their religious convictions.

Do you think Mormons in Utah and surrounding areas will do business with someone who wants to put up something anti-Mormon? In your heart of hearts?

Do you honestly think devout Muslims will bake a cake with Mohammed’s image on it, or anti-Muslim? Honestly?

Come on. this is all about forcing Christians to do things against their beliefs. They aren’t targeting any other faith groups. They aren’t wasting their time and they are also scared little pussies to try any other faith because they will get their asses kicked.

And when I say “nobody can coerce them to go against their religious convictions” the “them” is anybody.

Glad I checked FR this week-end.

Just cancelled - thought I was sending email and it went to “chat” - they already have a canned response about not tolerating discrimination in any form...

Indiana law just reiterates what federal law states. It’s an anchor to federal law.
On discrimination. Anyone who publicly announces anything that can be deemed political, religious or sexual have to take responsibility for it. Each of these categories are personal and sensitive which should stay personal otherwise you should expect others to also speak out their beliefs, preferences etc.
Hotels, restaurants, dept. stores, even bakeries do not want nor need to know your sexual preferences unless you tell them. Then, you open the door to a response good or bad. Keep your personal preferences to yourself or expect someone not like you to respond. That’s called communication. Semper Fi

There’s a class action lawsuit against them in Philly right now because AL claims to list contractors based on user feedback but in reality the list order is based on undisclosed ad revenues extracted from the contractors.

Not to mention counting on the Mainstream Media to dutifully transmit approved Progressive talking points in every headline, article and broadcast report.

And this is the core problem this nation faces. Everyone who works in these industries is extreme left wing. Their voices are amplified while ours are suppressed.

It is in this manner that this tiny minority opinion is made to appear more dominant than it really is, and how our far more dominant opinions are made to appear out of touch and extreme.

The Liberals have TOO MUCH free speech, and we don't have enough.

Washington is one of the states that leaves it up to the courts.

Which are invariably liberal, and therefore decide for the queers.

They will get their heads chopped off. Muslims will not put up with them, and they know it. Christianity has become a victim of it's own tolerance.

“With Angie’s Bitchin’ and Yelp gone, somebody will capitalize on their absence.”

Aye, the beauty of capitalism!

we signed up for it once a long time ago after getting screwed by several contractors. We were looking for a way to avoid crooks nd shitty work. All Angies List really is... paid advertisement for extremely high-priced contractors.

Funny thing... they have called me like 5 times in the past year trying to recruit me for their IT team. I really hope they call again, man I'll give it to them this time instead of being polite.

What have they done to “not” tolerate discrimination against people of faith.

Wifey and I LOVE Angie’s List. It’s a wonderful site for contractors. We’ve have all of the work on our home over the last 5 years done by Angie’s List contractors. I understand what’s going on here, but I have to believe that the national interest is not the same as the local. I’m sure the national interest is going to remain mum on the subject.

I will be calling on Monday to cancel. If they want to make a political statement, then I think I can make a political statement back as well.

About $40 million and 1000 jobs over the next five years, from what I understand.
