Oklahoma City’s multimillion dollar taxpayer funded shopping area a great place to get shot with your family, or shot and killed if you prefer. Good job. If you are going to break the rules to make your point, this is one admirably civil way to do it. Arguably this was a “publicity stunt,” but so are most of the daily speeches by politicians running for office, and they’re often quite hateful and destructive these days, unlike this protester. I’ll let others speak here, first there is this, and also then there is that. Both statements are both reading. I would like to add something, though, that I think has been under-emphasized in these last two weeks. There is a legal distinction about discrimination when it comes to public accommodations. If you put up a sign, or hang out your shingle in a way, and open your store or sell your services to the public, you cannot discriminate. Obviously, over the years the list of what categories of customers you must serve, versus who you can throw out, has been shifting. At one time, women were barred from many “public” establishments. For decades after that ended for the most part, racial minorities had to come to the back door of restaurants, or were barred completely, or had to enter movie theaters through a separate entrance and head to the balcony. What happened in Arizona (and is still happening in other states) is a last-ditch attempt to legalize treating anyone you don’t like for “religious” reasons (but let’s face it, it really means “people that I think are gay”) the same way. But we’re talking about public accommodation, and the issue is settled. You can’t do it. Now, how long ago was it that the issue was settled? I will put it this way, when you watch this scene, who do you think is in the right here and who is wrong? What would the sponsors of the Arizona bill say? We know what Rand Paul would think. If you used Yahoo video chat between 2008 and 2010, they still have your pictured stored in spy agency headquarters apparently. They were capturing/snapping images every 5 minutes during Yahoo chats. Was this “peeping tom” data shared with the United States? This should become a regular feature, it could become a trademark. This is what it’s really like in Putin’s Russia. Systematic kidnapping, assault against, and intimidation, loss of employment, done against anyone perceived to be “gay.” The word “bullying” is completely insufficient to describe what’s going on here. The Putin government is fully aware of these activities and even sometimes directly involved in encouraging it, because the reason for the “anti gay propaganda” laws is not just to cynically build support for the government in a fairly homophobic country, but to recruit and increase the number of pro-government thugs like these people, who are completely comparable to the gangs who attacked students who did sit-ins in the late 1950s and early 60s. This is an international nuclear disaster and it is time for international intervention before it’s too late. Oversight from around the world is needed, like it was after Chernobyl, to prevent a deadly coverup that could kill thousands with radiation that is ignored and swept under the rug. And appropriately harming those who voted for it. The latest on an incredibly under-reported and suspicious case. Why did the FBI kill Ibragim Todashev? Texas is a very big state and like Oklahoma, they wrote their law so broadly it invited legal attack. A ban in any form is unconstitutional, but this made it much easier for the judge.
