It seemed to be when black people were on the side of butthurtedness.
Yup. Live like anybody else, among everybody else, get married, have kids…
If they’re the only wedding planner in town, it sure does. If their example inspires every other wedding planner, and every other businesses in town to follow suit, it sure does. If it participates in a climate where even EMTs use these laws to refuse to help gay people, then it doubly fucking doodly sure does.
I assure you, it is still legal to butthurt people in many ways on the basis of their race.
And the courthouses are open to all gay couples in states with legal gay marriage. I’m sure the gay wedding planner industry will be burgeoning.
And the company can be sued, and Dancer will win. Even with this law in place. A) It’s a corporation, b) getting your life saved is a compelling interest of government.
BTW, the fault goes to the media for intentionally misrepresenting what these laws do. Those bigoted paramedics got their false information from false reporting.
Bullshit. The PARTY industry is another matter altogether.
Okay, so if you don’t like gay marriage, don’t get gay married. guess that slogan’s defunct now.
I don’t know why it was so hard to just admit that infringing on people’s beliefs was the plan all along and that we’re going to go a lot farther than this.
Yikes.
First you use “illegal” as a noun (in the 2016 GOP candidates thread in Elections). Now you’re putting apostrophes into possessive pronouns.
It’s almost as if you WANT people to conclude that nothing you have to contribute has any value.
I get it. Rights are whatever liberals say they are. They abandoned the “People have 1st amendment rights” about 10 months after Citizens United when actual people started contributing big bucks.
That’s why liberals will always be a tiny, loud minority that huddles into enclaves like this one. They have a long history of using whatever tactics are at hand to win. Say anything they need to say, make any deal they need to make, and then renege on it as soon as the time is right. All promises have an expiration date.
Oh, and BTW, here’s something for you:
Illegal Definition
adj. adjective
1. Prohibited by law.
2. Prohibited by official rules. an illegal pass in football.
3. Unacceptable to or not performable by a computer. an illegal operation.
n. noun
1. A person who is not legally authorized to live and work in a country.
The thread for conservatives to try and argue that liberals suck is further down the list.
Every post you make in this thread, adaher, simply adds (at least) one more to the number of Stupid Ideas present.
We should all be able to at least agree that RFRA-type laws are not stupid Republican ideas. The original one passed by a huge margin and Democrats won’t have the cojones to amend it for quite some time.
Show me all the dictionary entries you like. Anyone who USES it as a noun perforce signals a willingness to view and treat people as things; and forfeits any right to have his political opinions respected or taken seriously.
In other words, my first complaint wasn’t with your grammar. It was with your morals.
See if I ever agree to cater YOUR parties. 
Even your idea that we should all agree here is stupid, most of the Democrat organizations, human rights and even several religious groups are not amused.
a) liberals do not get to decide what our language is to be.
b) They call themselves illegales on occasion. Oh wait, is that a thing that only they can say to each other? It’s so hard to remember the rules. Oh wait! I don’t have to obey any rules! Liberals don’t have the power or the right to make any rules! Oh, I love the Constitution so much.
Doesn’t reduce the validity of what I said. It’s still true.
No, you’re right, it doesn’t reduce the validity of what you said. It’s an interesting debate to have. Where you go wrong is in thinking it’s a truth, when it’s not. It is just as moral to call someone illegal as to call someone a doctor, or a convict, or an athlete. Their presence is illegal. Some say they should be referred to as undocumented, but that’s actually false. They are usually documented. The documents are just fake, compounding the illegality(and turning their civil violation into a federal felony). There are many situations where we conservatives bitch about PC-ness when we shouldn’t. This isn’t one of them. “Illegal” is a fair desciptor for a class of people who are present in this country in violation of our laws. “Undocumented” is false. So until you can come up with a nicer descriptor that is actually accurate, you don’t have much of a moral leg to stand on. Sensitivity is a wonderful thing. Lying in the name of sensitivity is not.
“I’ll be there, Ma. Wherever an oppressed. job creator struggles to let his money’s voice be heard, I’ll be there, Ma…”
So the rich don’t have rights because they need them less?
The rich don’t have more rights, you simpering twat.
We agree on that. At least we did in the first months after Citizens United. Then things changed. You’d think that one’s interpretation of the 1st amendment wouldn’t change after just a few months. No wonder liberals complain about following outdated interpretations of the Constitution! Their interpretations change on practically a weekly basis!
Some countries lead the way in human rights, while others struggle along, and yet others work actively against human rights. Pity that republicans are holding your country’s social development back.
“Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission is a U.S. constitutional law case dealing with the regulation of campaign spending by organizations.”
Do you need help with dictionaries, adaher? I’ve underlined a few words to help you get started.
I guess it’s true that SDMB is “to the left” of comments at right-wing blogs, YouTube, etc., but anyone who thinks this is a “liberal enclave” is so far out-of-touch as to be a joke. I guess adaher gets his knowledge from Fox, Washington Times, etc.
