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.
When someone claims it is unfair to claim Trump is acting like Hitler just remember Jews were not mass murdered when he first took power. It started by Hitler demonizing all non "pure" Germans, discrimination laws, denial of service laws, laws denying property and business ownership and calls for mass deportation. Night of broken glass

Someone should start a business, and discriminate against Christians when FADA is passed. Then watch them cry about it.

Meh, they -already- complain about that sort of shit. You don't even have to discriminate, just disagree, or fail to kowtow.

Hmmmm....it's working for me.
How about this. Yeah, man. Now check out Luther Perkins on the Telecaster. The '50s were the greatest.

I've sometimes wondered about the reaction I'd get if I moved to the Southern US and started a practice where I had a sign up saying, "No Christians".

Usually that's one of the select few instances where the market takes care of itself. There aren't enough bigots left to keep a business sustained. Usually, as past events show, normal people react with disgust and steer clear of the particular shop. Remember that bigoted bakery? They went out of business after refusing to serve gays. So go for it, I would say. It probably creates openings for more deserving shop owners.

Nah. They wouldn't cry about it. They'd probably boycott it anyway.
