I think it's time for someone to force the issue: have someone get an order refused on religious grounds, take them to Court and either have the law overturned or prove it's the catalyst for discrimination that Pence denies it is.

(16,236 posts)The baker that refused to make a cake for a gay couple's wedding is out of business. I think little places are going to falter under this. And they employ more people overall, I would guess, than a big chain like pro-birth/anti-woman Domination Pizza. Tolerant businesses are likely to flourish. I just don't think we can apply Bigot Chicken philosophy to this. But it is all unfolding yet.

(93 posts)I did see a earlier version with about 46 pictures. Refreshed, down to 10 pictures, but no gay porn as far as I can see.
