Indiana and Arkansas Religious Freedom Law
 
It has begun.....

Indiana's Memories Pizza Reportedly Becomes First Business To Vow To Reject Gay Couples

****ing *******s.

I think it's hilarious they think any gay couple would hire a f*cking pizziera to cater their wedding. Idiots.

Mike Pence has made a lot of enemies in Indiana because of this law, and rightfully so. Please believe the majority of us here find it deplorable as well. The whole #boycottIndiana thing makes me sad because I do like where I live, most of the time, and don't want people, likely artists too, turning away from the state because of RFRA, but I don't say I blame them.

The immediate backlash is proof positive that the majority thinks these laws are complete and utter BS. Nothing more than politicians catering to the evangelical vote. I can see Arkansas but was surprised that the bible thumpers carried that much influence in Indiana.

Our state's legislature is a republican majority. Governer Pence is a spineless prick. The two combined is terrifying.

I mean just look at this ****:

So how do they figure out whether you're gay or not? Not all of the gay guys prance around like Freddie Mercury. Do they have you take a survey or something? Tbh I wouldn't really want to serve to Christians at my store so my I should move to Indiana.

That's why the common example being given by challengers of the bill is that of a gay couple planning their wedding or something to that effect.

I'm not sure if freedom for religion includes freedom from religion either. IMO atheists have just as hard of a time in work enviroments and don't always feel comfortable in making that known to their employer. I don't believe in god but I'm sure as fakehell not going to disclose that information to the people I work for.

I'm pretty sure that freedom of religion counts for both freedom of deciding your religion and freedom from others' religion.

If the law were introduced to persecute Christians (legitimately for once, not just when they like to whine about it), there would be riots in ****ing Indiana.

Well, if this is a law that literally allows good ol' discrimination, I'm against it. It's 2015 after all.
