Unfortunately, it will probably cost you anyway. The state will get less money, that's all there is to it. If Republicans gerrymandered Indiana, Indiana should have fought back hard. These states that are pulling these evil stunts, one after another, are all Republican. Right wing blogs are all cheering Pence right now. They've been hating the gays something fierce and this gives them a weapon. You should see some of the things they are saying.
Seacove--I agree with all of the above. I have another post on here that pretty much says the same thing. If voters would wake up and "follow the money" I think they would be scared by what is going on here.
I've seen a couple of the blogs--they sicken me.
My personal hope is that Pence runs for President and is soundly defeated. State law does not permit him to run for governor and President. (Although his cronies tried to pass a law that would let him do so.)
I couldn't find anything in the bill that specified anything about "gay" or "homosexual". Can someone tell me exactly where it appears in the bill?
There are federal laws that make discrimination based on race, religion, age, sex, disability illegal.
What is left? I don't see too many people fighting against blondes rights or lefty rights.
Indiana got their butt handed to them in the SSM fight and now feel the need to do something to get back.
Can't wait for the Somali Muslim cab drivers to refuse service to anyone with dogs or alcohol under this new law.

Everybody and nobody. With the myriad of conflicting religious views, beliefs and practices, this quagmire of discriminators discriminating against each other is going to be a laugh riot.
If a business is refusing people I highly doubt I would refuse to go there. I mean if they offer a product or service that I really like of a certain quality. Just because someone got refused won't have any effect on me.

I wish they were required to post the groups or people they will not serve.
Exactly. Someone posted there was an effort to require them to post signs on who they would refuse but it was defeated. Isn't that convenient? They want to deny service but don't want anyone to know who they denied service too. It's completely one-sided and secretive.

They are a paranoid group for sure.
