Republicans... proudly marching into the 1950's
November 17, 2016 at 4:33 pm
I gotta say, this FADA looks really horrendous... it's going to give anyone, anywhere the right to discriminate against others for just about anything.

Of course, you know it will pass. And once it does, how long do you think it will take before some business owners, primarily in the South, start claiming that allowing minorities in their stores goes against their religion? It won't be long before we start seeing "WHITES ONLY" signs again.

..Nobody's saying you have to love gay people Drich, you just don't get to refuse to serve them for being gay. You very obviously do not love gay people.

Did the election teach you nothing....lol? Whites only signs and folks aren't limited by imaginary lines of latitude. You might say that the truly important racists all live north of the mason dixon.....we maligned southerners already know how to deal with our bigoted uncles, aunts, etc... and importantly, we know who they are and have always known....we've never been in denial about it.

Drich thinks that antidiscrimination laws are a mandate to smoke pole.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

That's why I said "primarily." You know down there the good ol' boys are just itching to hang "whites only" signs again, but it will also happen elsewhere. It might even happen here in my town. If the FADA passes, I guarantee it, and under FADA, it doesn't look like the government will be able to do anything about it.

So you think it'll be OK if business owners don't allow fundamentalist Christians such as yourself in their store?

I know, right? Minorities were just fine before the government got involved.

Their base is in a state of literal biological decay. I've looked at the demographics from this election. If only 18-29 yr olds had voted, Clinton would have won 538-0.
Extrapolate this 30-40 years down the line and republicans will be a fringe group searching for acceptance.
On top of that religion is also in decline. Things will be ugly in the short term, but things should look very different in 15 years.

Well, the obvious response to that is to create our own religions. For instance, I have the sincerely held belief that any Christians that discriminate need to be be swiftly kicked in the genitals or else my god will punish me.
Freedom!
