THE GAY RIGHTS AGENDA STOPS AT THE DOOR TO MY CHURCH–AND MY BUSINESS
Breitbart ^ | April 4, 2015 | by ASSEMBLYMAN TIM DONNELLY

Posted on 04/04/2015 7:44:40 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

I have a dream.

I have a dream that I will wake up one day in a country where we don’t have to go to court or pass a law to protect our fundamental natural rights—from the government.

I have a dream of a place where elected officials have so much regard for the Constitution that they memorize it like Scripture, in order to not sin against it.

I have a dream about a country where it doesn’t matter if you are on the right or the left, because you have so much respect for the freedoms you were given that you’d do nothing to put those liberties at risk.

If you told me that America in 2015 was such a place, I’d have to say, “April Fools” and go back to sleep.

Unfortunately, the joke is on us.

States have been forced to pass laws in order to protect the First Amendment right of Americans to practice their faith and believe as they choose—if they happen to own a certain type of business.

The fact that new laws are necessary to uphold a fundamental right is a travesty.

And it is a sign of how far we’ve fallen from the Founders’ vision of a nation where the government kept its hands off your business, your religion and your rights.

Regardless of the politics of this embarrassing charade playing out in Indiana and other states, the stakes couldn’t be higher. This battle isn’t about a gay person’s right to be served; this fight is about whether a gay rights activist can use the government and the courts to coerce someone into doing something that violates their faith.

That takes this out of the bedroom and puts this debate squarely into the realm of the Constitution...

As long as we have brave honorable men to stand up for what’s right, but at the same time be fought tooth and nail by the spineless republican governors (speaking of Judge Roy Moore and the worthless governor of Ala), we will continue to be in the hall of a mess we’re in with the perversion of America. There’s a war coming with Christians over this nonsense. And it ain’t gonna be pretty.

More and more we are seeing what Sodom and Gomorrah were all about and why these mentally diseased perverts were, and should have been, kicked to the closet.

Informing people of who is behind all of these radical type of groups would pull the rug out from under all of these nation destroying movements. Of course, it is the Democratic party that is behind all of these radical groups whether it is Fergueson, gay marriage or whatever.

Say it clearly and loudly don’t vote for Democrats. It is amazing how many people don’t know what their Democrat party is up to. Democrat voters would be shocked to learn that Fergueson and Trayvon Martin were all a collusion between the liberal media and the Democrats to get black people angry so that they would get out and vote for Democrats. How cynical is that?
