Indiana Gov. Mike Pence thinks Hoosier’s religious beliefs are under attack Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Pence defends the Indiana law which says the state cannot intrude upon a business owner’s religious belief by requiring him to serve members of the LGBT community. Weddings R Us. We reserve the right to refuse service to people going straight to hell. The Governor cites the Hobby Lobby Supreme Court decision in his argument supporting the law. Corporations are People. He forgets that at one time religious beliefs were used to discriminate against interracial couples as well … Virginia is for loving. $. Maybe someone will jog his memory.

Les Cathos Integristes. Contre le theatre. Charlie Hebdo. 100 coups de fouet, si vous n’etes pas morts de rire! So now the shock of the murders has turned to questioning Charlie Hebdo’s satire. Some cartoonists and writers have described the cartoons as anti-Muslim, blasphemous, offensive and bigoted. The 2009 firing of a cartoonist who wrote and anti-Semitic column has also been mentioned … First of all, I am not a big fan of bathroom humor. Secondly, and more seriously, it’s a valid discussion to have about why the divisions between people are so deep and our political discourse have become toxic … However: That is not what we should be talking about now. The only question we should be asking is: Do we condone threats or violence toward individuals because of what they say or draw, regardless of how offensive the words or images are? NO. Because what happens once we get beyond the easy images to condemn? What?? And who makes that decision? All people must have the right to express themselves without fear otherwise we risk losing all our freedoms.
You answer it. No, you answer it. I’m not going to answer it … You answer it. You’re Chief Justice. Ring ring ring ring. Well, somebody needs to answer it. Why are we always being pushed to accept new gadgets? Maybe it’s some kind of warning system. I bet it’s a camera.
