This spells it out a little more in the beginning of the video. Much better than the way the news media framed it.

I have a lot of LGBT friends here in CT and this constant cycle of debate and re-debate about gay rights issues can be very emotionally and mentally difficult. I'm sure Malloy's motives were geared towards sending Indiana a message but also comforting the folks here in CT.

Dare I say I was... proud of him!?! lol

So, now that Indiana has passed a new law trying to address the issues, did Malloy let up on the travel ban?

I completely agree that this law is absurd. But that's because I believe ALL religion has no place in government. I absolutely hate when right spectrum politicians do things that make me defend people such as Malloy.

However, I'm not going to ignore the fact that if this were about Muslims discriminating against people, The Left (including Malloy) would applaud them for being "so strong willed in the face of abundant adversity".

Also pretty hypocritical that Apple would publicly shame Indiana, and then turn around and negotiate a major deal with Saudi Arabia where gays are stoned to death. hmmmm

Malloy is still a bias pig and piece of crap, only gives a damn about his own agenda. His supporters still hasn't answered why he is addressing indiana's controversial law only, but does nothing with other state's similar controversial laws?

Why is he worry about something and creating a distraction, while the state has many issues to address? Piece of crap governor.

Yes, I'd love to see the reaction on the left if a muslim bakery were to refuse a gay wedding. The hypocrisy of this whole thing reeks to high heaven.

I really don't know why you think liberals are in love with Islam. I'm guessing Rush told you that. Another silly, completely false, right wing meme.

I believe that Muslims are free to practice their religion like everyone else. I have no more or less interest in Islam than any other religion.

I'm sure most liberals on here would agree with me.
