Trump's First Amendment Defense Act Would Be 'Devastating' for LGBTQ Americans

[Ol’Otis]

They didn't dog out Harlem tho

 

[Bea__13]

Good

This will allow businesses or hospitals to sue the government if they interfere with their right to discriminate

Only a matter of time before they pass another "religious freedom" bill to discriminate against blacks and other minorities

I wish death upon anybody that voted republican

It would never go that far.


Sexual preference is where it stops.


Indifferent about that

HOLD YOUR OWN NUTS HOMOS, DON'T COME FOR OR CRAWLING TO BLACKS

I don't give a damn. LGBTQ issues =/= Black issues.

They need to take a number and wait their turn.​

You think this ends at gay people?

James Baldwin, Langston Hughes, and Bayard Rustin want a word with you

 

[Premeditated]

There are plenty of black LGBT

so??????

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

I mean, why go to places that don't want you there?

This.

From what I read, it's fair.

There are genuinely religious people out there that feel a certain way about homosexuality. If they don't want gays in their place of business, capitalism will sort them out. On the other hand, why the hell would you want to be in their place of business as a homosexual anyways?

im gonna have to read into this

if "devastation" = you have to piss in the mens room if you have a penis, then

ehh, not really. there arent that many fags

but thats what i dont understand either. you have these religious christians saying they dont want to bake your cake. why the fukk would you INSIST on forcing them to bake it? why not take your business elsewhere

Fair enough, but there tends to be enough allies of gays that will get a place shut down... Homos got pull.

 

[Boolean]

those fakkits were black first tho, sucking dikks was an after thought when white supremacy is a concern

i have no respect for christians, so i coudlnt care less if they get shut down if they think jesus is gonna be mad at them for baking a cake

but then when it comes to trannies in the wrong bathroom, that is NOT an issue i'll support them on. no one is telling me that my ten year old daughter has to piss with some 30 year old man in a dress shyt is disgusting

i very rarely agree with the religious right, but this is one of those issues

 

[feelosofer]

This is a backdoor to discriminate against other minorities, I get that you guys feel the LGBT community has not been the most supportive of Black causes, but will bite us in the ass too, if it passes.

 

[jadillac]

this won't pass. this is just Trump needing to appease his base by putting this "defense act" out there. But it'll get shot down.

 

[Uncle Kingpin]

They want the freedom to prevent others from expressing their freedom of 1st amendment right of speech and expression?








I'll never respect or support the gays, but if they can discriminate against the gays, what will stop them from using this law to discriminate against blacks, hispanics, and other minority groups? Private businesses already have a right to refuse service so I think they want to apply this to public (i/e/ federally funded) organizations.
All they will have to say is I discriminated him cuz he looked like a faq, not cuz he's colored
