In the US it’s the government’s job

As I said…it’s the job for libs.

@Jezcoe

Equal protection under the law.

Where is that for Chick Fil-a?

A company should legally be free from boycott or protest?

@gooddad409

Oh at this point anything other than ugliness from that community toward any disagreement would shock me.

How would you react to an effort to make it illegal for Christians to vote? Would you take the disagreement in stride?

@conan

Where is that for Chick Fil-a?

They have the same exact protections of every other company

Gays can’t vote? When did that happen?

@AngraMainyu

I appreciate the concern trolling.
You don’t know what I’m talking about? Doubt it. A post like that referring to Jews would have immediately been removed with a ban included. Somehow, imprisoning LGBT people isn’t considered as serious an offense by some.

Fact.

What exactly do you expect? Pleasantries from people who are finally looking at something resembling equality after untold generations of persecution directed at people who want to turn back the clock?

You guys are making my point. Thanks.

Wanting to restrict a right is the same thing whether its restricting the right to vote or to get married.

What is your point?

What I routinely see from people who share your views is this notion that they should be able to peddle their venom as much as they want with absolutely no blowback, either from the groups they are attacking or their allies. That isn’t the way the world works, whether for individuals or for businesses.

[CanadianJudo]

marriage is a right, just like voting.

you want to deny that right to people based on your moral dislike of them.

[GWH]

Wonder why? Rhetorical.

Wonder why? Rhetorical.

Because white, conservative, Christian males are great at self victimization and are basically the biggest snowflakes imaginable.

It is that, and when Christianity was a new religion, Christians were persecuted.
In America, Christianity is by far the largest religion…hard to be persecuted when you have a huge majority.

It’s a totally different argument that has zero to do with each other. And I see first hand how liberals deal with poverty each and everyday here in Seattle with a latte in one hand - “pinkie’s up”, cellphone in the other walking overtop and around the homeless daily.

But they have a plan we always hear

Sarah Sanders was politely asked to leave the Red Hen restaurant by a co-owner of the restaurant not because of Sarah Sanders POLITICAL BELIEFS but because of her supporting and promoting GOVERNMENT POLICY that of separating illegal immigrant children from their parents and holding them in chainlink cages without basic humane anenities. That is what our GOVERNMENT was doing, that wasn’t what the Republican Party was doing. Sarah Sanders stood before the WHITE HOUSE podium and supported and promoted that GOVERNMENT policy, even pretending it wasn’t what had happened, even pretending it was President Obama’s fault.

This is just wrong on so many levels…

First, Democrat congresswoman Maxine Waters openly calls for Republicans to be harrassed out of public places.

Second, Sarah Sanders was NOT treated politely.

Third, It WAS Obama that started the separation policy.

Fourth, any inhumane treatment suffered by detainees was the exception, not the rule or policy of the current Republican administration.

Fifth, any shortage of basic ammennities suffered by detainees was caused by Democrats in DC refusing to adequately fund for necessities, including adequate space.

Sixth, Sarah Sanders is not the only Republican harrassed in public places or chased out of restaurants. There are NUMEROUS examples readily available to see ANYWHERE except the American Pravda, AKA the left-wing mainstream media.

Seventh, it isn’t just Republican politicians who are being victimized by Democrat thugs. There are many examples of regular people, including an innocent 16 year old high school student on a field trip, who have been harrassed and assaulted for nothing more than wearing an “offensive” MAGA hat.

The fact is there is nothing civil or polite about Democrats and the farther left they lean, the nastier they get.

That’s one of the reasons why we like Trump, he doesn’t fold like most spineless Republican politicians. He gets nasty back

marriage also has a deep religious meaning, more to some than others, based on opposite gender relationships

the gay left should try to be tolerant of that

Being a devout Christian (which I’m not) and believing in marriage is between a man and a woman (which I do) does not equate to intolerance of gays, or equate to considering gays being a negative on society.

The rest of us are a bit tired of being lectured about the sanctity of marriage by people who line up to vote for a man who serially cheats on spouses and brags about it.

is marriage sacred?

Nope. It’s a legal contract signed by two consenting individuals.

so is a civil union

It’s a legal contract signed by two consenting adults.

yes, so is a civil union. but that’s not good enough for the “everything is anything to everybody” left

Civil unions never promised all rights associated with marriage. Kind of a separate but unequal.

incorrect. sorry

Dude, you used a wiki entry for the term used around the world. How were Civil Unions treated in the US? My recollection is they did not automatically grant all the rights that marriages did. Further, they were not recognized across state lines like marriages are which is pretty important. Each state could decide on their own to recognize civil unions.

my research shows they granted most “rights” that marriage (whatever that means nowadays) did

if not all

No, they really didn’t. From wiki:

The Supreme Court’s invalidation of DOMA Section 3 in 2013 heightened the difference between marriage and civil unions; while marriage provides federal benefits, civil unions do not.

if not, then the fight should be to make civil unions more like marriage in terms of benefits

but no they push to redefine marriage instead

reason - because that has always been the goal. to contort long standing institutions and culture to apply to their lifestyle

Civil unions were tried/suggested by gay rights groups…it was the “religious” right that shot such laws down as unacceptable. Ok, then…

[thinkingman]

i’d like to see some evidence that proves that

[GWH]

I remember it being the opposite. Civil unions weren’t good enough for lgbt.
