    You really believe people are actually doing this?

    Nevermind, I don't need an answer. I've seen enough.

    So who said Christians should be killed for discriminating against gays? Who said it?

    So far I have yet to see a quote of a death threat. And of course, no one on the right ever makes death threats. :roll:

    This pizza emporium never declined service to a homosexual.......yet thet were run out of business by the Gaystopo........thank goodness good Christians have come together to donate upwards of $200,000........so these folks can hit the beach for a couple of years while the Gay/media hysteria dies down.......then come back and reopen.

    ... really.

    If what they want is available.


    They aren't. There is no if.


    No one is free to buy "whatever they want", unless "whatever they want" is being sold.
    Heteros can't just pick something they want, and expect someone to provide it for them.
    Why do you want to give gays special rights, then claim they aren't special ?


    I don't. That's not my argument, and this isn't my problem.
    My problem is with those hateful people who call in death threats, and drag people to court.
    Otherwise known as "gays".

    Gay Fox News Guest Cautions LGBT People Against Being ‘Fascists’ Over Indiana Law (Video)

    Fox News contributor and openly-gay woman Tammy Bruce warned LGBT people against turning into fascists while opposing the controversial Indiana law.

    Bruce said LGBT people opposing people who support the Indiana law, like the pizzeria who won't serve same-sex marriages, goes against everything the gay rights and civil rights movement stand for: respecting other people's views and lifestyles.

    "For you to turn into what we have been fighting against for generations..." Bruce began, adding "so that we can condemn people who are different and with whom we disagree, it is the antitheses of what every civil rights movement was about."

    Bruce then evoked fascism to caution LGBT people on the Indiana law issue: "We saw this with Chick-fil-A, everybody came to Chick-Fil-A's defense when they were under attack by fascists, by bullies--the gay liberals have turned into bullies."

    That is because the so-called "conservative" movement is clearly polluted by a non-negligible racist/homophobic contingent, so that when they take up a political cause like private property rights, it is automatically associated with that contingent, which means hyper-liberals such as myself are unfairly lumped in with racists and homophobic people.

    No, there can be no illusory middle ground, because that creates the slippery slope. People need to take personal responsibility for themselves, and that means you cannot just assume that there will be an available gas station or hotel in the middle of nowhere, because even if it were the only hotel or gas station in a given area, and it was forced to service anyone who came to the door, it might not even be open or functional when you arrive there. In other words, you (the general "you") need to plan ahead and to be more self-reliant and stop pretending like the nanny-state can or even should protect Americans from their own irresponsibility and stupidity.

    Does this mean discrimination against gay people is now legal in Indiana?


    Maybe. Indiana law on discrimination creates certain protected classes. You can’t discriminate against someone because of their race, their religion, their gender, and so on. But sexual orientation isn’t on that list, so it’s already legal to discriminate against gay people in much of the state. Some cities and counties in the state have passed their own local anti-discrimination laws, and it’s really these that are where the question comes in. Whether this law overrules them comes down to how courts would interpret the legislation’s language.

    The courts are eventually going to be the final arbitrators here, not Pence, not the cacophonous wailing of the right...or left for that matter (depending on whose complaining). It will definitely be challenged in court but before that happens, people are waiting on what the SCOTUS decision will be on Gay Marriage. If it's upheld, that will render this law moot.

    I suppose under Liberal reasoning, the Westboro Baptist Church can require a gay artist that takes commissions for paintings to paint a scene of God striking down homosexuals.

    What you Leftists are doing is fascism.

    I'll agree to it when the lefties start forcing muslims to do the breaststroke in bacon.

    Absolutely. I still have pictures of the one I went to that day.

    And what is wrong with discrimination, exactly?

    Do you date every women who is interested in you, or do you discriminate against some of them?

    Do you think we should abolish age-based restrictions on the consumption alcohol and cigarettes, as they are a form of state-mandated, age-based discrimination?

    Do you think the US military should allow physically and mentally handicapped people to enlist in order to avoid discrimination?

    Should the black panthers and other private ethnic organizations be forced to admit KKK members to their ranks?

    Of course not, but he'd definitely be busted. He'll just stay in the closet about his cheating so that it's not everyone elses business. Something another group should reconsider.

    At the rate progressives are moving, it won't be long before it IS two gay brothers going in to order a cake for their wedding.

    The problem with it is the fact that they went overboard with overkill. Making several Yelp sites depicting the pizza place with gay photos and gay memes and horrid reviews... It doesn't get much more childish and immature than that. And there were a few posters here laughing it up, joining in on the immaturity. It just goes to show the level of maturity we're dealing with when it involves gays or their "allies."

    Pfffft . . . eventually the nation will be nostalgic for the time when it was only two gay brothers in to purchase their wedding cake. Before the Left is done with this nation it will be mandated by P.C. law that one has to prepare a wedding cake for a Man and his significant other billy goat. "Baaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Means no . . . baaaaaaaaad human!"

    it's already getting that way in terms of labeling everything "bullying"


    if my kid refuses to play at recess with your kid.... it's "bullying"

    I'm sorry your child is socially awkward... but that shouldn't obligate my child to play with yours if he doesn't want to....


    I wish I had known that someone not wanting to hang out was deemed "bullying" I was bullied by all the pretty girls back in highschool, apparently... lol

    You probably know that better than anyone here.... since you are a teacher (not ignored).

    But I have heard of that very thing happening myself.

    The PC left is an F'ing joke.

    while I have never liked the man/animal comparison, I do see being forced to have to not only tolerate the adultery lifestyle, but I must also celebrate it or be publically shamed when asked if I accept the lifestyle....

    Kinda like these kids were shamed when they dared to say they didn't believe you were born gay, and that it was environment that influenced the lifestyle...

    I haven't dealt with it as much as my wife has.... She has a kid that licks his desk, "accidentally" falls out of his seat during testing, etc.... the kids can't stand the child, but the father insists it's because the school allows bullying

    It is clear to me that many of my fellow Americans have no clue as to what homosexuality is and what it is exactly that makes a person a homosexual. In the interest of clearing up some really rather large misconceptions, I have devised this simple test.

    1. You are a male homosexual if you:

    A. Love your brother. B. Are a really nice guy. C. Are creative and like musicals. D. Are afraid of asking out a female. E. Willingly put another male's penis in your mouth or anal canal.

    The correct answer is E.

    2. You are a female homosexual if:

    A. You are a really nice girls PE teacher. B. Live in a house with another female. C. Are not asked out on dates with males. D. Like cats and holding hands in front of the fireplace. E. Willingly have other females sexually stimulate your vagina.

    The correct answer is E.

    If you selected answers A-D on either question, then you are ignorant or kidding yourself.

    Homosexuality is an act. It is not a physical trait like skin pigmentation.

    It is not "just about love". It is a behavior. No male is born with another male's penis in his mouth.

    How many of us love others but feel no sexual attraction.

    This is all about their sexual perversion and that explains why so many homosexuals have to have many sexual partners.

    That is SO gross, yet SO true... I really like when they resort to "When did you find out you liked girls?"

    That's been the natural attraction since the dawn of man.
