The notion that there is a “jihad against Christians and their religious freedom” is itself irrational, ignorant, and a lie.
From the linked article:
“And I believe that the subset of the gay-rights movement intent on destroying their business and livelihood has done more harm than good here...”
This is also a lie – no one is “intent on destroying their business and livelihood,” the author of the article is a much a liar as the OP and most others on the right concerning this issue.
Such lies being contrived and propagated by conservatives hostile to gay Americans is what in fact is doing harm.
In addition, This issue well represents the dishonesty and hypocrisy of most conservatives.
What has happened to the restaurant is exactly what conservatives hostile to public accommodations laws advocate: that a business with a policy of discrimination should be 'regulated' by 'private market forces,' not government compelling a business to accommodate a given class of persons. Such businesses, conservatives hostile to public accommodations laws tell us, will be 'put out of business' by the good people of the local community refusing to subsidize the business' racism or bigotry, or the business will change its policy to avoid going out of business.
Of course, this notion is ridiculous, naïve, and completely unfounded, but this has nonetheless always been the conservative response in opposition to public accommodations laws.
Now that this is indeed happening to Memories Pizza, what conservatives have always argued for, conservatives cry foul.
Yeah its all made up. There arent groups of Muslims massacreing Christians all over the world like yesterdays 150 death one where they singled out Christians. ...never happened.
