Well that narrows the NFL's choices now doesn't it?
Hmmm. Fifty less nineteen - in the arithmetic system I use, that's 31 states that the NFL could consider. I'd say they probably wouldn't feel *too* hemmed in.

OK. Please cite a US law for us - any law at all - that actually discriminates against christians.

If I knew in advance that a client of mine was a religious nut, I would charge him double and send half the funds to Planned Parenthood. (The problem is knowing in advance...I guess Google searches would help with this.)

What we have now is a tiered system where the government has its favorite protected classes that have more rights than others do. If someone told me they wouldn't bake me a cake because I am white or bald or tall I wouldn't throw a hissy fit over it. I would find someone who wants my hard earned cash and have them make it. Guess that's what happens when you have parents that taught you to be an adult and mature not an infantile child that these crybabies whining over a bakery or florist or t shirt maker refusing to make their cake,floral arrangement or shirts for them is.

Oh and I am not expecting the corrupt governor to sign it. He whined about a pro gun bill that allowed college students to protect themselves on campus so he is just another RINO.
black people in the 1960's should have just found restaurants that would serve them and not whine about it

If you run a business for the public you have no right to discriminate against that public based on your religious beliefs...it's a slippery slope and the next thing you know it'll be against someone's 'religion' to bake a cake for a black or Hispanic person.
That is basically what trump supporters are salivating for. They hope trumps regime can deliver on it. Make America Wasp Again.... Ahhhh the good old days when Catholics and gays and blacks and Asians and Jews and Hispanics and women could be openly discriminated against. They can taste it.... They long for it and now it's OK to openly state it. I remember the signs in the south. NO BLACKS NO JEWS NO IRISH.

Nor do religious groups have the right to dictate business law.

Great point. One should note that those claiming religious persecution are all too eager to exclude those who share their Christian beliefs. I have been to one too many churches in the south where the preacher starts demonizing northen liberals... At that point I get up and walk out. I guess my region of birth and political point if view makes me less of a Christian. Scary stuff
