Arizona votes to punish gays, but should have protected
 all of us from having to patronize or to serve those whom
we don't like or whose lifestyle with which we don't agree.

Worth Considering

Being a gay libertarian gives me a freedom to think outside of the box imposed by leftist, militant homosexuals and those Bible humping Fundamentalist Christian gay hating pieces of dog crap.

I understand the Right's desire not to have to serve those whom that they don't like.

Businesses should be free to decide whom they want to employ, whom they want to serve, how much they want to pay their employees, and by all means should be able to decide which morality they want to support and which to tell to go take a hike.

As a gay businessman, I shouldn't be compelled to work with breeders.    I find nothing more repulsive than a brood mare who already has hatched four or five snot factories who is now obviously had a load pumped up her snatch that took root and she's ready to offload another varmint.

I should be able to bar such gross displays of barnyard social grace from my place of employment - and the offspring should be kept as far away from me as possible lest I find a decent recipe in the "Modest Proposal" cookbook.

It is such a heavy burden for straight people, particularly Fundamentalist Christians, to have  to deal with men who love to suck cock and women who consume vaginal and mammary secretions.    It is also quite illuminating that only your sensibilities can be offended and should be pandered to.

I would like to offer an amendment to this bill, seeing that it approves of selecting out populations you find offensive and seeking to provide cover for not having to deal with those folks.

I think that anyone who consumes tax dollars who has any child they can't support should be made to go get her cunt lips sewed up and/or to get sterilized.   And to prevent the father from having a sequel two minute performance with the same results, I think his nuts should be cut off and sold as furry (or not) dice to be hung from a rear view mirror.

As for children, since I'm not popping them out, I should be excused from their educational expenses.   You can divert my tax dollars to the arts, thank you very much.

As for all religions who think they should be able to escape taxation, I think it is now your turn to contribute.   Let's tax you at the rate of Apple Computer and levy all of your property as subject to property taxes.

I also should be able to tell polyester water buffaloes with who bring along proof of their ability to do internal horizontal seminal harvesting to get the hell out and to go take their business elsewhere.   Their offspring are noisy and often ill mannered - they cough and chew with their mouths open - and spill things.   Sometimes they barf and have not yet been trained to use the facilities.   Unclean barnyard animals aren't allowed in stores so I should be able to bar two legged ones from mine.

(CNN) - Arizona's Legislature has passed a controversial bill that would allow business owners, as long as they assert their religious beliefs, to deny service to gay and lesbian customers.

The bill, which the state House of Representatives passed by a 33-27 vote Thursday, now goes to Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican and onetime small business owner who vetoed similar legislation last year but has expressed the right of business owners to deny service.

The measure has drawn criticism from Democrats and business groups who said it would sanction discrimination and open the state to the risk of damaging litigation.

"With the express consent of Republicans in this Legislature, many Arizonans will find themselves members of a separate and unequal class under this law because of their sexual orientation," Anna Tovar, the state senate Democratic minority leader, said in a statement. "This bill may also open the door to discriminate based on race, familial status, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability."

In a letter to Brewer on Friday, the Greater Phoenix Economic Council urged the governor to veto Senate Bill 1062, saying the "legislation will likely have profound, negative effects on our business community for years to come."

"The legislation places businesses currently in Arizona, as well as those looking to locate here, in potentially damaging risk of litigation, and costly, needless legal disputes," council President Barry Broome wrote, adding that four unidentified companies have vowed to locate elsewhere if the legislation is signed.

He added, "With major events approaching in the coming year, including Super Bowl XLIX, Arizona will be the center of the world's stage. This legislation has the potential of subjecting the Super Bowl, and major events surrounding it, to the threats of boycotts."

The bill is being pushed by the Center for Arizona Policy, a conservative group opposed to abortion and same-sex marriage. The group has justified the measure on grounds that the proposal protects people against increasingly activist federal courts.

"As we witness hostility towards people of faith grow like never before, we must take this opportunity to speak up for religious liberty," the group said on its website, asking people to contact Brewer and urge her to sign the bill. "The great news is that SB 1062 protects your right to live and work according to your faith."

Cathi Herrod, the center's president, told CNN on Friday, "The Arizona bill has a very simple premise, that Americans should be free to live and work according to their religious faith. It's simply about protecting religious liberty and nothing else."

Herrod said the bill's opponents are "showing unbelievable hostility toward religious beliefs."

"America still stands for the principle that religious beliefs matter (for) something in this country, that we have the right to freely exercise our religious beliefs," she said.

But Robert Boston, a spokesman for the Washington-based Americans United for Separation of Church and State, told CNN the legislation would "fling the door wide open to discrimination, not just against gay people, but basically to any class of individuals that a religious fundamentalist decides he or she doesn't want to deal with."

He added, "A woman who is pregnant out of wedlock, for example, 'Well, out the door, you don't get served in my business.' "

The Arizona legislation was passed as conservative states work to counter laws legalizing same-sex marriage. Arizona voters approved a ban on same-sex marriage as a state constitutional amendment in 2008.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona called the bill "unnecessary and discriminatory."

"What today's bill does is allow private individuals and businesses to use religion to discriminate, sending a message that Arizona is intolerant and unwelcoming," the group said in a statement.

Some Republican legislators have defended the bill as a First Amendment issue, while Democrats dismissed it as an attack on gays and lesbians.

"We saw it with Russia and the Olympics," said state Rep. Chad Campbell, a Phoenix Democrat, who voted against the legislation, according to KPHO. "I mean, hey, I'm not sure if Russia is any less progressive than Arizona now against gay rights to be quite honest with you."

Monica Jones, a Phoenix resident, agreed: "Think about what this says to the rest of the country. We are not Russia. We are a first nation. And, as Americans, we have civil rights."
