SUPPORTERS of gay rights have united in outrage after the US state of Indiana adopted a law critics say would allow businesses to deny service to homosexuals on religious grounds.

“It is vitally important to protect religious freedom in Indiana,” the Republican governor said in a statement.

Aside from setting back equality I don't know how many years, this is just another example of American religious conservativeness gone nuts.

Everyone excludes who ever thy like from their home so why should a proprietor be any different?


you're so right!!!

wouldn't want to catch teh g hey now would we.

 

stupidest question ever - your home is your private sanctuary that nobody has reasonable expectation to be admitted to without invitation.

A business on the other hand is open to the general public and owners usually don't  exclude anyone without cause, and if the cause is their sexual orientation then that is discrimmination.

Re: Why do we allow such Stupidity!!!!

And are you saying that excluding people, for whatever reason, from your home is NOT discriminatory

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Quite right too.  The State should issue store owners with a sticker they can put on their shop window "Hommasekshuls not served here" or better still give the store owners a nice pointy white hat to wear so they can be easily identified.

why yes I am.

I am choosey about who I let into my private sanctuary.

 

I allow family and friends, race, creed, sexual orientation is irrelevant.

I don't alow strangers in, again race, creed, sexual orientation is irrelevant.
