Seems to me that there are huge corporations who do just this. If you're going to target the LGBT community and say they are putting pressure on companies, let's be real. Corporations have paid lobbyists on their staff who constantly send lawmakers gifts and take them places, all so the big corporations can get those easy tax breaks and laws that favor themselves.
Show me where the LGBT community is paying lobbyists money to "circumvent due process". Due process has to do with an individual's rights under the law.
Due process:
1. As an individual you have the right to a fair and speedy trial.
2. You have the right to be heard in front of a jury of your peers.
3. You have the right to be considered innocent before being found guilty, via that fair and speedy trial, in front of a jury of your peers.
