UPDATE: In the latest twist in the AZ anti-gay bill passage, three GOP senators have now had a change of heart and are urging Brewer to veto the bill. It would seem that this should be the nail in the coffin for the measure, but in this state, who knows?

They think that the bill will allow businesses to refuse gay people on every service based on an owner citing religious reasons. Of course this is not true at all because every case would have to through a court and be reviewed , but thanks to the liberal media and gay activst propaganda, many people are very misinformed.
This is why most people should not be talking about politics. They don't think for themselves or do their own research. Most people just let people on TV or elsewhere tell them how to feel and think. Hell I bet that most people here didn't even read the bill.
The bill is simply protecting the Religious Rights of business owners. As seen in the case of the Oregon Bakery and how the gay mafia destroyed them, bills like this are completely necessary and should be made mandatory in every state. Religious Rights are protected the Constitution too.
Uh, I was for it before I was against it, until I run for re-election, when I will be for it again!!
They underestimated things for sure. The reaction to this bill has been overwhelmingly negative in AZ. Everyone from the businesses to the churches are condemning it. I haven't heard the LDS church come out against it yet, but that may be coming and, of course, that would be the end of it right there. When SB1070 - the illegal immigration bill that made headlines. passed there was broad support. Maybe they figured it would be the same with a bill aimed at gays.
BTW, Brewer is out of state until tomorrow, so the controversy should rage for at least another day. So far, the legislative leaders are refusing to bring the bill up for reconsideration. That could change if more defect. These guys might want to have this one back.

Correct , thats why i was wondering how this was anti gay .
This bill is so that owners CAN NOT GET SUED because they dont want to serve someone. I think its a great bill since it seems like today everyone trys to sure for whatever reason they can.
I wonder where the outrage is for the " no shoes no shirt no service " ? Can liberals answer that.

Putting aside the ludicrousness of promoting the religious freedom of business to discriminate against a class of people, this will be bad for business in AZ. There will be organizations and groups who will choose to take their money elsewhere. Look at what happened when AZ said no to Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday - the NFL pulled Tempe's Superbowl hosting and put in in Pasadena.
This bill just proves how extreme and out of touch the Republican Party is.
Please explain and what the bill does exactly.
