I have no doubt that was a big part of his calculation. Do you have any evidence to support your contention that it was the only part?

No.

And neither does anyone else as all signs point to the mountains of cash that threatened to walk if it proceeded.

Of course he may have contemplated 'what would Jesus do in this situation', but there is nothing indicating that was the case .....

Most notably, the NFL on Friday threatened to block Georgia from getting a Super Bowl if Deal signs the bill into law, while the NCAA, Atlanta Braves and Atlanta Hawks issued statements of their own

Yeah, and maybe they learned something from their experience with segregation.

Not saying money didn't play a big role. Just saying that denying somebody could have other motivations is pretty much the definition of nihilism.

And nihilism ain't even a philosophy. It's a cheap excuse for being lazy and hopeless.

Yes indeed! Segregation not in Georgia or Alabama... but in the Democrat Liberal (racist) Northern State of Connecticut!

I love the one comment against it pointing out that they have left out black woman.

Also love the bit at the bottom about how the school mascot (a wolf or husky) promotes rape.

Don't forget Boston, the dead-last city in the U.S. to desegregate its public housing.

Yup... Democrats one and all!

And the Democrat Elite that destroyed the Boston School System with forced bussing.

No matter... the Democrats are gentrifying all of Boston's neighborhoods and pushing the poor into the sh*tty old mill cities surrounding Boston. The Liberals will soon have it white and liberal as they always have.

Actually, that'd be the courts, but don't let me (or the facts) stop you.

Ay-yup.

You expect me to support or defend the Baw-stun Dumbocrats, you're barking up the wrong tree, in the wrong forest, on the wrong planet.

But as I said, don't let that stop you.

Oh dear... Oh dear... I forgot you are from Oklahoma and know very little of Judge Garritty from Lilly White Liberal Wellesley, Mass. You know very little of the lilly white liberal suburban activists from their lilly white neighborhoods that fought to keep Blacks Students in Boston instead of being bused to their lilly white schools. The creation of METCO to prevent the mass busing of Boston students to their towns.

You sort of are already doing that. Sneakily of course.

OK, now I'm confused. You seem to be saying that the librul commie Democrats "destroyed the Boston schools" by imposing busing, and then that the librul commie Democrats opposed busing.

Request clarification.

What more proof do you need that I really really am a lawyer?

The bill was specifically aimed at preventing persecution of individuals who out of conscience will not provide religiously oriented services to homosexuals.

There have been several cases of people who provide wedding and banquet services refusing to cater to homosexual 'marriages'. Some have ended up with fines of thousands of dollars.. some have been forced out of business rather than compromise their faith.

This law did not allow a restaurant from refusing to serve someone it deemed to be a homosexual.. it did protect them from celebrating something they deemed completely inconsistent, in fact an abomination, to their beliefs. This means the veto is an attack on Freedom of Religion.

The Governor totally capitulated to corporate intimidation. We all know how utterly amoral and gutless Corporate America (and Canada) are... pandering pathetically to any organized lobby without regard to the moral worth or consequences of its cause. These are the same corporate piggies who moved their plants to Free Trade Zones with enslaved inmates and left their own American employees jobless.

I hope the Georgia Legislature musters the votes and courage to stand up to this outrageous attack on liberty.

EXACTLY! ... except for the commie stuff... that's you acting all tardish.

They supported busing providing they weren't bused to their lily (thanks) white liberal adjoining suburban schools. They wanted Black students bused to other sh*tty schools in other poor BOSTON neighborhoods.

They pretty much said to the poor white people of Boston...

Schools in minority neighborhoods in Boston are sh*tty, so we have to take your kids and bus them across town to these sh*tty schools and then we'll bus the black kids to sh*tty but not as sh*tty schools in your neighborhoods. We expect you all to behave and accept this BRILLIANT idea.

In the meantime... so our lily white liberal towns that abut the city of Boston don't have to accept any black children en masse or have to send our white children to sh*tty Boston schools we will create a COMPLETELY racist program called METCO. This will allow us do-goody nimby liberals to accept certain select black children, in other words... GREAT HS ATHLETES, into our schools and be able to control the numbers of blacks that will be sitting next to our kids.

So the poor Democrats in poor democrat neighborhoods were upset that they had to get their first to 12 graders up at 5:00AM to get their 6AM bus across town to their new even sh*ttier school! And the rich liberal lily white Democrats got to call them all racist because they now had METCO and finally some really great running backs for their HS Football Team!

Ah, that clarifies it. Thanks.

I know, you expected me to defend the "limousine liberals." Sorry.

But you can always say I'm doing it "sneaky."

By the way, I did commit suicide. But I got better.
