Got it. Really healthy worldview you've got over there. Clearly grounded in reality and not paranoia.

Try reading the post again without the hatred and paranoia you project others to share clouding your thoughts. My point was simply that is wasn't a threat to boycott lead by gay people.

If it was a gay group talking about it instead of business competitors, then it should be taken more seriously.

You don't think gays work for these 'competitors', and that they aren't making such a statement on their behalf?
Take this development lightly at your own peril.

It's just really pathetic that we need the influence of outsiders and business interests to influence our leaders to do the right thing.

Georgia voters have been thoroughly neutered. It's all about what the money guys think.

Yes, it still seems that you are right. That plus the numbnutz impulse once in the voting booth to simply select the choice that has the "R" by it out of sheer habit.

In fairness, that is just as likely to happen if the letter is a 'D'.

No this lead by politicians pushing that stupid discriminatory bill that shouldn't exist in the place. They're pushing knowing it discriminatory and knowing it will cause a backflash.

Wow. Just, wow.

If a clearly intelligent person such as yourself can be an apologist to such hateful and damaging policy, it just confirms to me that the old Regan/Romney Republican Party is indeed dead.

Time to replace the R with a T.

You mean like Muslims?

Hard to take anything coming from Hollywood seriously considering the sexual misconduct, rapes, and vast amount of sexual predators (both male and female) that have been doing these things for decades and covering it up.
