Can Mississippi be forcibly removed from the country? We don't need Saudi Arabia as a state. They should just be their own country if they are going to act like such savages.

We'll just vote them out and let Puerto Rico in so that we don't have to change the flag.

Yeah, you'd have to be a fundie nutjob to actually support this. Fucks over non LGBT people too.
a government clerk could refuse to issue a marriage license to a couple because one person had been previously divorced;

a taxpayer-funded adoption agency could refuse to place a child with a happy and loving family because the parents lived together before they were married;

a taxpayer-funded organization that provides shelter to kids who have suffered child abuse could turn away a pregnant teenager;

a counseling group practice could refuse to see a mother and her teen who is experiencing severe depression because the woman is unmarried;
a counselor could refuse to help an LGBT person who called a suicide hotline;

a fertility clinic could refuse to treat a veteran and his partner because they are not married;

a car rental agency could refuse to rent a car to a same-sex couple on their honeymoon;
and
a corporation could fire a woman for wearing pants.

Fuck that state and the backwards ass rednecks who supported this "law"

I don't get why shithole states think that restricting business sales is gonna do anything for them in the long term. Oh hey, let me just cash my morals at the bank so that I can reinvest in my business. -_-

It is to protect businesses from having to do what they do not want to.

If a business wants to lose money based on belief; another will gladly accept the job.

In other words; it makes the business model a more capitalist model.

No, it doesn't. Pure capitalism doesn't have protectionist bullshit laws.

To be fair, the laws in place to begin with were 'protectionist' laws. These laws only push the ability to pick and choose consumers.

You know I hate huff po as much as the next guy but you're really reaching if that headline bothers you. They're obviously referring to American legislation, not ever in the history of mankind.

Even if they're referring to American history worst is still ridiculous. Gay sex was illegal in several states until just like a decade ago.

Fuck I hate journalism today. You read the title, the subtitle and the first 3 paragraphs of a story and you still don't know what the fuck the story is actually about.

Awful, though. Awful legislation.

No, to be fair, you had a bullshit point and just need to admit it.
