    Protests In Indiana

    I'm sure this will be the beginning of many...

    http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...indy/70596032/

    INDIANAPOLIS — Thousands of people gathered in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday to protest the passage this week of a controversial "religious freedom" law that critics say could allow discrimination against gays and lesbians.

    The protesters chanted and held signs as they marched from Monument Circle to the Indiana Statehouse to express their displeasure with Republican Gov. Mike Pence, who signed the legislation Thursday.

    "No hate in our state," "Whose State? Our State!" and "Fix the bill" were some of the chants heard in the background at the rally.

    An unidentified State Police trooper estimated that as many as 3,000 were in attendance at the height of the rally,

    ...

    On Saturday, Angie's List CEO Bill Oesterle said he will cancel the company's plans for a $40 million expansion of its Indianapolis headquarters because of his opposition to RFRA.

    So tell me...how much does a wedding cake worth? Is it worth $40 million plus?

    Excuse me, but there is that little clause in the US Constitution that allows the free exercise of religion, something that scares the crap out of the Left. And no, Christianity is not something that is to be left "at church or in the home".
    IT'S JUST BORIS!

    IMHO that law is a giant step backwards for the US. You conservatives are always talking about signs of the end of the US as we know it well here it is. The founding fathers are all spinning in their graves.

    Maintaining religious freedom is NOT the beginning of the end...the totalitarian views of the left are closer to that...

    Sanctioning discrimination is indeed the beginning of the end. Rember when the Nazis sanctioned discrimination against Jews?

    It's a moot point @Boris The Animal, sweetie.

    The SCOTUS will ensure equal right for gays in a little over two months. Enjoy these last fleeting moments of homophobia, my dear Boorish.

    Exclamation

    Let's now all of us just sit back and watch Indiana implode and spiral downward as businesses start to leave that state and new businesses that wanted to go there will now do an about face and pledge not to ever do business there.
    Let's see how much care and compassion Trump and Republicans show for their fellow Americans to truly help them out in their time of need.

    Let's start the count to see if Trump comes through on the many things he promised to do for Americans. If he doesn't, along with a Republican Congress, then what's his and their excuse?

    And ensure further persecution of Christians in the US. The SCOTUS is dead wrong about this, HowAIDS.

    hey TB, I notice in your signature you support one party rule. Say, how well did that $#@! work in your homeland of Soviet Russia?
