Arizona....

 

 

Lot of talk about the so-called anti-gay bill in Arizona.

 

 

Weird situation since I can see both sides of the argument.  Cue the left- oh my god you are full of hate, bigotry, etc.  Ok- are we done now?  Here goes:

 

 

First off- nobody should discriminate against anyone.  White, black, straight, gay, who the fuck cares at this point?  Really- I can't believe people actually get upset if gay people want to get married.  Like you really have so little in your life that would bother you?  Grow up.

 

Now for the bill itself- I'm sure 99% of the people that are posting on Facebook about it, etc. haven't read it.  It doesn't say gay once.  It doesn't say you can discriminate against gays.  It says that you have a claim not to serve someone if it is against your religion.

 

That being said- you know that some stupid hick would use this and try to deny someone service.  And you know a couple looking for attention would try to go somewhere in hopes they are denied.  Wouldn't have been good.

 

But isn't bad for the owner to refuse service?  Wouldn't they be vilified?  Lose business?

 

I don't think you should give anyone a license to promote discrimination.  BUT....I don't think the government should be allowed to tell a business who they can and can't serve.  It's a slippery slope.  You don't want the government intruding into your life like that.

 

So hopefully common sense can prevail.  If someone comes in your restaurant and you don't agree with their lifestyle who cares?  Seriously.  There's nothing in the Bible about going to Hell for serving a gay couple a ham sandwich.

 

And if someone had a place that didn't want me there I wouldn't go.  Take your business elsewhere.

 

But I'll tell you this- the NFL should stay the fuck out of politics.  Threatening to move the Superbowl?  Please.  Your league employs drug users, women beaters and murderers.  Clean up your own mess first.
