NASCAR joins backlash over Indiana religious freedom law

[jc456]

"This is bad." Isn't very convincing even from Apple.

"We're closing down every Apple Store and manufacturing facility in the state. We will no longer do business with Indiana or anyone or thing from there." Makes people shit their pants.

I see so punish the people.

If the people are being punished because of their government's actions, it's the peoples job to elect a new government. Apple, or any other corporation, can move into or leave any state they want for any reason.

Unless of course you are a Samsung dealer.

If the people want to be free of the gay mafia it is going to take more than a law.

It'll probably take all you knuckle heads have, like the KKK and the Aryan Brotherhood....

Nah. Let the muslims deal with them. They like doing so. Just don't stop them.

So you are now allies with the Muslims?

Isn't it liberals who say that when one enemy is fighting another enemy it's best to just let them take care of one another?

Gays are every bit of the enemy of Christians as muslims arem

A couple observations, if I may.

1) Oh dear God are you stupid! Flailing around trying to associate what you seem to think is the worst thing in the world (being Muslim*) with what you seem to think is another of the world's worst things,( being homosexual) If you had a clue, it would be easy to explain, but you have plumbed the depths of utter stupidity and any explanation on anyone's part would be tantamount to casting pearls before swine.

2) Anything else you have to say on this or any subject is taken with a tractor trailer load of salt. Due to your history as one of the dingbats of the first order, your opinions may safely be disposed along with the daily refuse.

*more on this bit of idiocy later

typical leftist view, the hell with those who are not the majority again. See, as I've continued to say, the left does not like the minorities.

I can't wait for conservatives to start saying they're boycotting NASCAR.

Remember when ESPN fired Rush for his silly remarks about Donovan McNabb?

Limbaugh s comments touch off controversy - NFL - ESPN

That lasted about 40 seconds....about how long it took them to throw Romney under the bus when he lost.

I don't watch ESPN because of their PC attitude. And Rush Is Right about the PCMFers..

I'm sure they miss you.

They won't miss me but they'll grieve for my money.

They've got plenty of their own. Nobody misses you...nobody ever has.

Suuuure they do! I followed NASCAR since 1949 when they were almost penniless till recently when they're Really Big Business. It's all about money and there are millions of Christian fans in the South. Let's wait until their voices are heard.

Apple's job is to provide their customers with the best products to suit their customers' needs ... Not necessarily to decide the politics of any given state.
Where I see no reason to suggest that they cannot move their corporate facilities to whatever location they desire ... That doesn't mean that their political stance should overshadow their responsibilities to their customers.

To suggest that Apple should involve themselves in division politics in order to make politics more important than the services they offer ... Would qualify them as a lobbying organization or agency more than a business.

Violent Christophrenics may benefit from electroshock, although there is a 20 percent chance that they may turn out like the warped young men and women that we see at Pat Robertson’s Regent University. Ultimately the family members of a Christophrenic may benefit from participation in a support group, the most effective of which is Cranky Relatives of Angry Puritan Prigs (or CRAPP).

I said let us wait to see what NASCAR fans in the South say. I've talked to around a dozen since the announcement. And yes, the money is the prime motivator.

Bill Clinton singed the same law into effect back in 1993.
Where were you mindless partisan bigots back then?

Exactly the same? You sure?

 

[Camp]

I think it is interesting that corporations or institutions would use their power of the purse to pursue pointless division politics in order to present the image they care about the irrelevant. It seems to me that it would go further to threaten withdrawal if Indiana does not establish "sexual orientation" as a protected anti-discrimination class ... Than to withdraw as a knee-jerk response to provisions not supplied in the text of the legislation ... In order to run and hide from accountability as far as actually accomplishing anything worthwhile.

.

I think it's great when businesses consider the local climate before opening up offices/moving there.

Like if Roe were overturned and states got to vote on women's civil rights...you'd have states that kept Roe in tact and states that overturned it. The thing is that if you're Bank of America or Wal*Mart and you want to transfer a female to a state that outlawed Roe...you may not be able to entice her to take a pass on civil rights in the interest of managing a branch or store. It not only makes the playing field unlevel for the people involved, it makes the playing field more treacherous for businesses who now have to consider the local ordinances.

The real hilarity behind the Indiana law is that religious freedoms are not under attack. The law was needless and Indiana stands to lose tens of millions of dollars for something nobody needed or wanted outside of the political class.

Businesses will be vary weary of setting up shop if they have to recruit people from out of state, educated people aren't and don't want to brig their families to that type of environment

That type of environment... Like the entire USA, which has the same -federal- law?

No it doesn't. Stop listening to that conservative radio crap. They are misleading you and making you sound foolish. The federal law is not the same as the Indiana law. The federal law does not include interactions between private business and customers. That is the whole point of the controversy. Indiana law is allowing private business to interact with private citizens and determine if discrimination is justified or not. It will take a law suite and years of litigation to determine the legitimacy on a case by case basis.

Umm Apple's only job is to make a profit. They can take whatever stance they want. Most corporations have already taken a pro gay stance. Some, like Chick Fil A, have taken the opposite stance. It's up to the people to support ir not support them.
