Proposed religious law changes

[Jazzy]

Indiana's Republican legislative leaders have unveiled changes to the state's new religious objections law that has faced criticism it could allow discrimination against lesbians and gays.

The amendment to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act released Thursday prohibits service providers from using the law as a legal defense for refusing to provide services, goods, facilities or accommodations. It also bars discrimination based on race, color, religion, ancestry, age, national origin, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or United States military service.

A conference committee must discuss the proposed changes to the law, and both the House and the Senate will need to approve them before they can go to Gov. Mike Pence.

Pence called for changes to clarify the law Tuesday in response to an uproar fueled by discrimination concerns.

Okay, so what does this law actually accomplish?

Unless someone can explain it to me, I see it as nothing more than politicians coming up with a bill, & when the uproar becomes to much for them to bear, they amend the bill to where it really doesn't do anything, and they will proudly say that all this non-productive work that accomplished nothing is a sign that democracy works.

Your thoughts?

So it's a law that can't be used in its own legal reasoning. Okay.

I was against it anyway, for obvious reasons, but this is just fucking stupid.

 

[WHO IS SERAFIN]

I am not sure what they have changed in the law yet? But the word pussy comes to mind because tyranny of the minority makes this guy shake like a little girl.

What obvious reasons? To be able to practice your belief and run your business without tyranny.
