Ya, I've heard talking head cons whine about how this was supposedly unconstitutional.  Same guys who claim that stuff that isn't specifically named in the Constitution has no Constitutional protection.

I guess it's OK for the left to use the power of Government to punish people for using their 1st Amendment freedoms.

I believe it's ok for a city official to have the right under  our beloved Constitution. to tell a company they are not welcome and block them from building. Because they are discriminating against a segment of their Community and the community doesn't want that kind of religious discrimination. Kentay

Get a clue. There's no discrimination going on. Just the President of the company expressing his personal opinion.

Sure looks like you support discrimination, when you can't even recognize it when it's in your face. Kentay

In other words, you don't believe in the First Amendment.  But we already knew that, didn't we?

Do you support the First Amendment right to hold and express discriminatory opinions?

Yes i do, I just don't support any businesses that discrimination against a segment of the society I live in and I think officials have that right to block any public business that discriminates for a civil society within a community. Do you?

What does the First Amendment say about officials blocking businesses based upon the opinions of the owners?

kentay, why are you climbing out on this limb?  If it weren't for the First Amendment, Rahmbo would be denying permits to Romney supporters.

STFU with your propaganda.  You have no clue what is written in the Constitution, why it is in the Constitution or what I it means.  Your stance on the issue bears this out.  Here is what the man said.  Your job is to show where he is discriminating:

Quote

[/size]
[/size]That is not discrimination.  It is only discrimination if he acts on it.  According to that what group is he discriminating against?  Gays work for that company.  Gays are served there.  So it isn't them.  Is it divorced people?  People who live together out of wed lock?  People who have kids out of wedlock?
[/size]
[/size]For you to support the mayors in this shows you do not understand he constitution nor do you feel it is beloved.
[/size]
[/size]
A reminder for kentay:
I fully support going back to ALL, that says ALL THE CLINTON TAX and spend policies that led to the economic boom in the second half of the 90's.
