I think we should boycott FFXI while we are at it. I don't like the direction the game is going. I'll show them I'll unsubscribe that will turn the game around !

It will never cease to amaze me how people rally around hate.

And it will never cease to amaze me that the people frothing at the mouths on the other side of the fence don't realize that hate is the very thing they're using as a weapon against it.
While I will admit some people do take it too far but fighting against an unjust action is not using hate as a weapon against it.

This country is not made only for the religious and should not be governed as such. It does not infringe upon a persons personal beleifs. I don't get how serving at a wedding is any different than serving them in general either. Do you draw the line when you see a gay married couple walk into your establishment? The whole thing seems ridiculous anyways.

So using death threats is perfectly acceptable as long as the cause is just? Shitting on this family in fact such a cause?

The only way this works is that everyone has a right to refuse service per if it violates their beliefs.
Did you not read my post? Or are you like politicians who like to ignore the whole to focus on the most outrageous action and then double down on that?

No death threats are not ok. According to you though they should be as long as there are no actions taken. I mean wasn't it you yesterday that was talking about how all speech is protected? You can spew hateful speech but appearantly if its against your cause then you like to play the victim lol... Talk about hypocrisy.
Again you didn't comprehend anything I wrote, my point was I can call you names, I cannot incite violence or make threats. Everyone accepts these exceptions to "free speech".
You don't think someone calling another person a *** in spite isn't threatening? You think that someone on the receiving end of that kind of hateful speech doesn't incite fear in the recipient.

You're not for free speech nor do you understand your rights provided to you by the constitution. You're another person that would just like to do what they think is theirs to do and damn everyone else.

Do these people deserve death threats or are they even necassary? No. Honestly it hurts the cause more then it helps. Is it ok for people to avoid this establishment like the plague now and make it known why because of the business practices of the establishment? Most certainly.

And you are a person who wishes to enforce your will onto others, forcefully if/as you deem necessary.

What's your point?

Scaring someone isn't threatening them. If it were then free speech would be based on the feelings of those hearing the speech not the words of the speaker.

What is the specific threat conveyed through "***"?

I don't get why you guys have a problem with this anyways. If a company came out and said it was pro abortion and then people who were anti-abortion came out and said they no longer wish to support this business publicly or posted on Yelp would you have an issue with it?

Nope. If the business was shut down due to intimidation and threats sparked by a sensationalist, cherry-picking media, then I would be in full support of the company, though. I condemn such tactics when they're coming from my side of the fence too. It's a novel idea, you guys should try it sometime.
When did I do any of that? Have I threatened them? Have I said they should be shut down? I've personally said idc if they refuse and to let the blowback sort it out.

As KN said to me thanks for lumping me into something I was not a part of.

That's not how it works in any case and that's a silly example.
So, it's perfectly ok when you create a hate-filled argument to fight "injustice" but when it is used against you, "that's not how it works" and "it's a silly example."

Sure, whatever bub.

Who said I have an issue with this? Notice I have been very quiet about the whole issue?

Thanks for lumping me in there bub.

I'm just pointing out the hypocrites as they are.
No. Some of them are hypocrites not all. Not everyone is a crazy loon sending out death threats to this establishment. Here you are judging the whole by the few.

Many have not used hate filled rhetoric to make their case and not all of the hate filled speech has been from the same side.

I apologize for seemingly lumping you into the group as well.

I never said anything about the people making threats or the business refusing service or anything of the sort. Again, I have been very quiet on the main issue at hand.

You said that you were pointing out their hpocrisy. Not all of them are the hypocrites you label them to be. Even donating to a gofundme page isn't hypocritical.

Fighting hate with hate would be hyporcritical hence the not everyone is a loon.

I've never really dealt with higher functioning autism. It's been the opposite, the ones who are overly sensitive and pick up emotion where little exists.

They didn't say they were changing the law yet. All they've said is that they are working on clarifying what the law actually is.

Arkansas didn't get theirs signed into play because Walmart told the governor not to.

Georgia stopped theirs because an anti-descrimination ammendment was added and they wouldn't pass it like that.
