Mono I'll take the bait and comment more than most will read. I think we can all agree that discrimination for stupid reasons is stupid. Regardless of level of stupidity that falls on every persons own opinion and value system.
And you see this law isn't about discriminating against people as much as it is about protecting people from frivolous lawsuits because they didn't respect others peoples beliefs or values in private establishments. In another way its prevention from discrimination on a minority. It is sad that the state is taking preventative measures at all but after the precendent in the OR cake case it seems they feel it is warranted. I don't think it's totally warranted, but the courts are full of morons and trials by todays jurys are scary. Ha a person running for judge tried to stiff my company money before. Such good judgement.
And everyone has different values. Like I would think you would turn down Donald Trump from building a flyer for him. Or at least discriminate monetarily by saying sure for 100K or whatever you felt was a good amount. To force your values on another is wrong. People need to grow up accept reality isnt a big safe space ( i was called faggot on my run today, i think because my shirt was orange ). If a person turns you down, don't be pissed and think u have a special right to their labor, just move on be an adult with a more sensible value system.

- entirely on the wishes of one group who wants to openly refuse service to another based on their sexual orientation and christian values and ethicsmonospaced
- Now, we can argue all day about whether this is true or not and won't get anywhere. Just two viewpoints, fair and out there, and mostly contradictory. Peace.monospaced

- AND I totally agree, due to the HYPER LITIGIOUS nature of the USA, businesses are more worried about protecting their asses than anything. It's rhetoric.********
