GG Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 17 hours ago, LABillzFan said: The problem is that as a staged, targeted hit on a small business owner, it promotes the hypocrisy of the left with little accountability. The left is trying to make a point. The challenge is that the point they SAY they're making and the point they really ARE making are two different things. They SAY they're dealing with a bigot because he refuses to do everything the left wants him to do for a homosexual. This baker, in fact, creates product for many gays. He chooses not to partake in the ceremony, and the left simply finds that unacceptable. But again, understanding this is all staged, ask yourself: why does the left go after the Christian baker, but not the Muslim baker? Why is it always a Christian baker in these staged events? Too bad John Adams Franklin Quaker abandoned these shores and can't defend his theory that these issues won't snowball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Anti-Discrimination Laws Are Wielded against a Shelter for Battered Women https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/08/anti-discrimination-laws-used-against-battered-women-shelter/ There is a concept in Judaism that unnecessary stringency, even in the pursuit of positive goals, can have negative effects. This is similar to the idea of unintended consequences. A recent incident involving a women’s shelter in Anchorage, Alaska, illustrates how, taken to an overzealous extreme, even a sincere attempt to protect the dignity of some can cause tremendous suffering to others. In that case and others, self-righteous bureaucrats have distorted anti-discrimination laws to persecute religious and traditional Americans. On the night of January 28, 2018, an employee answered a knock on the door of the Downtown Hope Center, a women’s shelter that provides a safe place for battered women and those who have escaped sex-trafficking. She expected to find another woman in need of a safe place to sleep. Instead, she found a biological male in a nightgown. He was drunk and appeared wounded. The biological man, Timothy Coyle, who identified as a transgender woman, Samantha Coyle, had gotten into a fight and been ejected from a nearby homeless shelter. Sherrie Laurie, the director of the Hope Center, told Coyle that he could not stay there, but she provided him with cab fare and sent him to the emergency room for treatment. Coyle returned the next day, and the Center again informed him that it could not admit him for a number of reasons, including his arrival before the shelter opened for new admissions that day. Coyle responded by filing a complaint with the Anchorage Equal Rights Commission, under a statute prohibiting discrimination in public accommodations. Yes, you read that right: A man sued a women’s shelter, claiming that it was legally required to allow him to sleep among the women it housed. This case highlights the way in which zealotry can go awry. The attempt to defend one group, transgendered individuals, is undermining attempts to protect the safety and dignity of a second group — vulnerable women. more at the link: .

In the case of Alex Jones, they are trying to inflame his popularity and drive more people to his channel. (because he's controlled opposition, they'd rather make a martyr of a cut-out like Jones who pushes disinformation than make a martyr out of an alternative news source that pushes real information) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who's feelings might be hurt. People who hear him say that Sandy Hook was faked, and get upset by it. Seems to me that the problem there isn't Jones, as much as it is people who get offended by him because they somehow forgot that crackpots shouldn't be taken seriously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
