No, it really isn't cause for outrage. Laughter perhaps, but not outrage. Preaching in public is and should be legal, just like any other form of free speech. There's no reason why a business can't preach. However, it might get kind of fun should they hire a Jew, Muslim, Hindu, or atheist, who refuses to put the labels on for religious reasons. I'd love to see the reasonabe accommodation suit.
RRRR . . . (heavy sigh). Dammit, Jenny . . . you're right.
I hate it, but you're right. Just like Hobby Lobby can paint Bible verses all over their walls, and print out verses on their receipts . . . it's a private business, these breathing piles of shit can do whatever they want, as long as they serve every customer equally, and don't discriminate with their employees.
Dammit. But if those verses WERE from the Koran, the building would have been torched by now. It's not right. It's just not right.
But yeah, you're right. Now I feel a little silly for starting this thread. Sorry folks.
