And further, any business owner who would turn away a paying customer is a moron
How do you enforce a ban on bigotry?
You can use the force of government to make a shop owner serve someone he doesn't want to.....but that doesn't stop bigotry.
All it does is create more animosity towards big government while violating someone's religious rights and right to their own labor.
And while I agree a shop owner who refuses to serve someone based on their sexual preferences is not making a sound business decision, that decision should be theirs to make.
It's that freedom to be ignorant thing I mentioned earlier.
The market will provide a solution without the need for government forcing them.to provide their labor against their will.
Country had reached a crossroad with the election of Obama.
Politics as you knew it ceased to exist.
Every issue was existential. A struggle between socialism and capitalism, a fight to the death of America.
Essentially a political war.
Until that is settled, compromise is a thing of the past.
As obama said, elections have consequences.
To see the rift, recall how obama warned the scotus about obamacare, that they should not circumvent the will of the people as represented by their elected legislators.
Then, without media criticism, isued EOs, and federal regs to circumvent the people's representatives.
the emphasis is on the lack of media criticism. That silence by the media is the greatest tragedy to befall America and the reason we are now in desperate political times. Consider alos the democrat party has been hijacked by the extremist socialists, using the good repoutation of demcrats legacy to hide behind. the democrats, as we knew them, could easily be called a thrid party.
the republican swamp creatures are the beau bergdahls of the decade.
To realize there really is only 1 political party.. when we saw them attack the tea party to prevent it from growing and gaining support.. When we saw them buy the democratic nomination. When we see John McCain, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and the FBI turn on conservatives from day #1 When we see our government Deny "We The Peoples" Vote thats called a Dictatorship or " The Government Party" "BASIC Income/Communism"
Quit listening to all they're Propaganda its put into play to Divide us all.. This is the United States, Not the Divided States...Its all a smoke screen to prevent Americans from finding out the Federal Government has committed Treason and is in Collusion with Iran.. The Federal government uses the Iranian Government to Commit Terrorist Acts around the world..

I think FC is satirizing the right-wingers on here. You know, the who post polls with nothing but loaded answers. The only possible answers being the ones that, to the poll-writer's mind, are the only possible choices.
OOPS, sorry FC. I read a few more posts on here, and it seems that truth is indeed stranger than fiction.
Yeah, I know. But I was just being honest. What about schooling fees for families that have more than ONE child? Unfortunately, most Americans want as much free stuff from the government. And those with children actually think that they are doing society (and me) some big favour by having kids. And also parent mistakenly thinking that all that's needed to raise a child properly is having them in a school. Meanwhile, all I see around me are poorly raised children.
And it is a huge and unfair burden for society to have to pick up the tab for dealing with special needs children... as the cost of dealing with them is hugely expensive. One day, when we find out the cause of what makes kids dyslexic, autistic or having ADHD, we need to sue the pants off of those companies responsible and make them pay for schooling for these broken children.
