People who throw around political terms like "fascist" and "communist" should at least know their correct meaning, especially when they are journalists.
Tammy Bruce is a popular conservative radio talk show host who happens to be gay.

That is how the court ruled. It was over building retail stores. The court got that one very wrong. The sad part is what they got in the end was a parking lot. They took people's homes and got a parking lot.

What is becoming noticeable is your refusal to mount some sort of counterargument. And no, "the conclusion is completely wrong"" does not count as an argument.

If Christian schools want government funds, they can play by government rules. Give to Caesar that which is Caesar's as a very smart guy once said.

P.S. The people in every state rejected it, even in California, until liberal lawmakers had to defy the will of the people. That's your fact for the day.
Democrats have learned to use the supreme court to make law.

I think another point of that article is that those activists do not represent the views of all those for whom they presume to speak, in this case gay people. The author of this article is a gay woman herself, and expresses the disgust for the activists' behavior that I'd think most others feel towards that behavior.
