    "The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has interpreted the prohibition of discrimination based on conduct to include discrimination based on sexual orientation."

    This is perfectly legal, bars and other businesses do this all the time with customers that cause problems.

    As affirmed by the NFL who is considering penalties for "slurs"

    No, not all slurs of course...just those that disparage Gays and Blacks....everyone else is still fair game.

    Isn't that "Sex" as in Male or Female though? As in not allowing Women to vote or drive for example? I dont think that line you quoted meant "sex" as in who you choose to have it with.

    Not to mention, since Hollywood is in CA, California's Unruh Civil Rights Act makes it illegal to discriminate against individuals based on unconventional dress or sexual preference.

    Ahhh ok, that makes it clearer. Didnt see it in the post I referenced.

    - - - Updated - - -


    Anything you want to call a White guy a Latino or an Asian....(and anyone else except the 2 the NFL wants to protect) you wont get 15 yards for calling someone a cracker, honkey, ***** or wetback for instance.

    Why the special protections NFL?

    So..OK for children to hang out in bars and strip clubs? I mean, by your definition..its discrimination otherwise..Does that mean i can go anywhere to smoke my cigarettes? Restaurants, bars, supermarket? Why not? Discrimination is discrimination no matter how you try to justify it..

    It's a law that prohibits you from serving alcohol to minors. Even in trying to move the goal posts, you're failing.

    By that logic discrimination against pedophilia would also be prohibited. Pedophilia is a sexual orientation.

    Its amazing how many liberals are against discrimination of pedophiles.

    Your slipperly slope/red herring argument is terrible and quite frankly hiliarious. The law isn't discriminatory because the ADEA only protects those 40 or older. Minors aren't included.

    Well sadly, when it comes to liberal values and thier twisted logic, every argument is a red herring:

    Anti tobacco but pro pot
    anti death penalty but pro abortion
    anti racial profiling but pro affirmative action

    you see?

    So you support pedophilia from being discriminated against since pedophilia is a sexual orientation.

    Right, well the thread title mentions "anti-gay." Pretty obvious to most what discrimination topic we are discussing. :roll:
