An issue that needs watching...it isn't what your opinion is about gay people The issue is the State forcing only 1 way on people/schools/churches

It appears that Virginia has gone full-bore, utopian communist.

diversity....

Remember that woman making the public service announcement that there are too many white people here....

Diversity means any kind of person of color, leftist, and is Anti-Trump and a non-heterosexual is welcome.

Will Virginia force the Christian schools to honor the gay couples’ birthdays and anniversaries of “relationships” with cake portraying a smiling Satan stabbing the Holy Bible with his pitchfork and the naked same sex couple kissing?

Mandatory.

demoncrats know how to use power when they’ve got it. i think this group learned from the failures of bammy’s congress to “get things done” and to blazes with the consequences.

This is not good for my Alma Mater, Christendom College, in Front Royal, Virginia. Christendom is a Catholic College which upholds traditional Catholic teaching on these things.

How the heck did a sexual prediliction become a civil right?

That is precisely what happens when LIEberal Democrats are elected to ANY public office!

TAXMAN: “A vote for ANY LIEberal, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!”

POTUS: “A vote for any Democrat in 2020 is a vote for the rise of radical socialism and the destruction of the American dream!”

TAXMAN: “America cannot survive a LIEberal victory in 2020! Vote FOR America! Vote Republican!”

Not in the rural areas outside of Richmond it hasn’t. 90 out of 95 Virginia counties have passed 2nd Amendment sanctuary resolutions. Liberals own Richmond and two NoVA counties, IIRC.

Coonman Northam hasn’t confiscated a single AR-15 or arrested a single sheriff. And I’ll just bet state police authorities are quietly asking him not to transform them into his New Gestapo because, frankly, they don’t have the numbers to go around knocking on millions of doors.

In fact, Hitler’s Gestapo never had to worry about doxxing if you get my drift.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints might be partvof the target of this bill.

“Southern Virginia University (SVU) is a private liberal arts college in Buena Vista, Virginia. The school, though not officially affiliated with a particular faith, embraces the values of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It was founded in 1867 as a school for girls, and is now a private four-year coeducational institution.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Virginia_University

BYU went through this with the feds a few years age and when they said no money if you do not change, the church leaders said that was ok with them.

Student housing is still seperated. No mixed housing.

This time it will be a state law.

I guess asking students to live by an honer code is too much:

“Code of Honor
SVU has a code of honor,[17] intended to help students live by its core values, which includes the following guidelines:

Honesty in academic and personal behavior

Living a chaste and virtuous lifestyle

Abstinence from alcohol and tobacco

Respect for the rights and property of others

Obedience to law and university policies

Observation of university dress and grooming standards

An ecclesiastical endorsement to live the code of honor is part of the application process. This consists of students signing a compact in conjunction with their respective ecclesiastical leader.[18]”
