Apple CEO Tim Cook Compares Indiana Law to Jim Crow Laws in Scathing Op-Ed
Yahoo News ^ | March 30, 2015 | AFP

Posted on 03/30/2015 12:19:46 PM PDT by Zhang Fei

Apple chief Tim Cook slammed what he called a wave of “dangerous” laws in several US states that he said promote discrimination and erode equality, in an editorial published Sunday.

Cook — one of the most prominent chief executives to publicly acknowledge his homosexuality — wrote in the Washington Post that so-called “religious freedom” laws passed in several states threaten to undo progress toward greater equality.

"There’s something very dangerous happening in states across the country," Cook wrote in the editorial.

Someone with a message offensive to Apple needs to try to make a contract with Apple to see what that company says.

To repeat:

Dear Tim...

More Jobs

Less Bawney.

If you want to run for office, do so, and let the REAL ENGINEERS continue to provide desirable Apple products.

Apple’s corporate office is at (408) 996-1010. Opinions can be left at this number.

New York state just passed a law making it legal for abortionists to inject poison directly into a baby’s heart up to a gestational age of 9 months. And people are getting angry at Indiana for this? I fear for my country.

always the pictures of the “wanna marry” homo bunch

no one ever mentions the “chicken hawk” homos.

(you know, the homos who befriend and ply runaway young boys with drugs, money, meals, shelter in exchange for “sex”)

Christians have always been identified by their refusal to worship the idols of pagans. Gays are the new Romans.

Orthodox Jews, also, refuse to serve idols. They're also going to end up in the arena.

One of the reason why I never buy Apple products. With a Samsung you don’t need an account to have music or videos, you get it all free unlike the thieves at Apple

yep me to.
Free music, free movies, free videos and games.
Apple is such a rip off anyway, always having to buy something and have to set up an account for them to track.

Why anyone has Apple today is beyond me anyway.

They think they are ahead of everyone, when in reality they are way behind. The very fact that I can open my andoid tablet and actually have a folder/file system would amaze them. I can’t imagine not being able to save files from my computer directly to a folder I can actually create! I can create a custom app and simply save it to my tablet and run it...without consulting Google.

Tim Cook not only has chosen the homosexual lifestyle, he claims “homos are God’s special people” despite the fact God defines it as so evil it’s an “obamanation”.

btw, where are the apple fanboys and their blog leader to defend “Timmy the pervert & Godphobe”?

I’ve found there is much more freedom with a Samsung compared to Apple. Apple wants accounts , their folders and files like you said are way behind.

Apple is mostly for kids who have no idea how to use a phone and instead just keep spending money on songs by using their parents money,.

To: Zhang Fei; All
Noting that the idea of equality was introduced as early as Genesis 2:5, with all due respect to Mr. Cook, he evidently doesn’t understand that 10th Amendment-protected state laws that protect religious freedom compliment Section 1 of the 14th Amendment.
14th Amendment, Section 1:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

In fact, state religious protection laws will help prevent Constitution-respecting states from unthinkingly violating the 14th Amendment like pro-gay activist states already have imo. Activist states are wrongly using equality policies to trump constitutionally enumerated freedom of religious expression in the name of protecting constitutionally unprotected gay “rights."

So a race of people is the same as a deviant behavior.
