Arizona , you have got to be kidding . Your ignorant lawmakers have passed legislation which would condone businesses' discrimination against gays based on "religious beliefs" ? Did someone say "Jim Crow"? This homophobic new law would effectively allow hatred, racism, bigotry, discrimination and much , much more based on some catch-all, self-serving ,contrived religious belief !! Someone wake me from this bad dream.
If enacted, this would send Arizona back to the "witch-hunting days". I can see it now. I hate blacks. Religious belief. I hate Jews...Religious belief. I hate women...Religious belief. I hate gays...Religious belief..I hate Italians...Religious belief..I hate men with long hair...I'm covered, religious belief. The Law, which has a zero chance of surviving a constitutional challenge, is despicable and obviously flawed on its face. IT'S GOTTA GO.
First off, every person(no matter what , must be treated equally). Secondly , religion is not a justification for hatred or discrimination. It doesn't work that way. You can have any religious belief you want as long as it doesn't impose upon another person's "rights".Religion doesn't give you the right to hate.
Frankly, I could go on and on. But, there is one word that could put this whole fiasco to rest quickly and indefinitely. VETO!!!!!
