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.

...”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.”...
Me, too. The times we live in are evil. A large percentage of our population has lost judgment due to the numbing of the frontal lobes of the brain through drug addiction and the rest are brainwashed by academia and the MSM press. Everything is about sex and abortion. Real people who want to live their lives and let others live as well are out here but they are mostly hidden. Homosexuals have all the freedoms to live their lives that everyone else has now but that is not good enough for them. I just cannot understand why individuals want to force others to observe and talk about their sex lives all the time. I wish they would do that in private and think about really important things once in a while.
Those people are all a little overly dramatic.
That’s OK. I compare him to the scum that God personally destroyed at Sodom and Gomorrah.
Will the drama queen be winning a Tony award?
Well said.
Good point. So now Apple is going to go gay-bat-sh*t-crazy since Cook is out of the closet. Spare me.
This idiot is standing in front of a mob of other frenzied morons scraming, “burn the witch, burn the witch!”
Apple chief Tim Cook is going to ruin Apple....and it’s not going to take him very long.
I knew that there was a reason why i refuse to use a single Apple product......actually there are a few reasons.
Plenty of whites didn’t discriminate in the south and Jim Crow laws forced them to do so. Libs like Cook think every white person was the same in the south. But most back tehn were Democrats.
Is this the law?
Religious freedom restoration act. Provides that a state or local government action may not substantially burden a person’s right to the exercise of religion unless it is demonstrated that applying the burden to the person’s exercise of religion is: (1) essential to further a compelling governmental interest; and (2) the least restrictive means of furthering the compelling governmental interest. Provides that a person whose exercise of religion has been substantially burdened, or is likely to be substantially burdened, by a state or local government action may assert the burden as a claim or defense in a judicial proceeding, regardless of whether the state or a political subdivision of the state is a party to the judicial proceeding. Allows a person who asserts a burden as a claim or defense to obtain appropriate relief, including: (1) injunctive relief; (2) declaratory relief; (3) compensatory damages; and (4) recovery of court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees.
I decided to today to walk away from Mac, Apple and iTunes
I see he’s latching on to the civil tights era meme horsesh**.
So 21 States plus the Federal Government have Religious Freedom Restoration Acts, does this also apply to all the others?
the first amendment obviously does.
Libtards have gone ballistic saying “ban Indiana”, pretty laughable no vision and stupid. Focusing on a business that discriminates against someone and going viral would be the way to deal with it, though there as of yet are no businesses to target. Interesting eh?
Yet Chicago businesses openly discriminate against gun owners with signs, affirmed by the city: http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20140117/chicago/city-tells-business-owners-put-up-signs-if-they-dont-want-guns-shops
Civil rights violated. No different from banning a member of Pisslam from a shop. Yet hoplophobia rules the cosmopolitan elites hypocrites.

sigh...I really don’t want to have to buy an android...
Blacks universally resent being compared to homosexuals. They further recognize that the comparison of what they endured is equivalent to acceptance of disgusting homosexual behavior is nothing but a cheap hustle by the pervert crowd seeking to advance their status. Black Americans have been exploited by the white “progressive” homosexual fascists. The mystery is why Black Americans do not reject the homosexual and choice predators.
Of course Cook says nothing. Male queers exalted Nambla for many years until it became less acceptable and marketable to the public, yet, 90% of the male queers were victims of adult queers.
