I tend to agree. It appears to be a PR mistake. I think this law was never intended to discriminate.
I don’t really care. What does some Gerbil abuser in San Francisco have to do with laws in Indiana. If they boycott Indiana, okay then - they would stay long and they wouldn’t spend anything except on trolling while they’re there.. I’d say Indiana Gerbils would cheer and rejoice.
I think that somewhere there is a body of people who wanted a discriminatory bill, and Gov. Pence was willing to allow then to think that this was it, to try to score political points on the side, but it blew up in his face and now everywhere he turns it’s a loss.
