San Francisco prides itself as a tolerant place, but it is closed off to one thing: Indiana.

On Thursday, San Francisco Mayor Edwin Lee, a Democrat, directed all City Departments under his authority to bar publicly funded travel to the Hoosier State.

The decision followed Indiana Republican Gov. Mike Pence’s decision to sign a “religious freedom” bill that critics say effectively sanctions discrimination of LGBT citizens by private businesses.

“We stand united as San Franciscans to condemn Indiana’s new discriminatory law,” Lee said in a statement.

“San Francisco taxpayers will not subsidize legally-sanctioned discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people by the State of Indiana.”

Though San Francisco is a famously LGBT-friendly city, the mayor did not mention in his announcement the 19 other states that currently have similar religious freedom acts on the books.

This is so freaking funny.

Why should anyone try to use religion to deprive others of equal rights?

Why not?. You liberals use racism to deprive people of equal rights. I speak, of course, of affirmative action.

Not me, nor any other American Christian...aside from our Lord, that is.

Which is why we won't be attending homo sacrilegious festivities on demand...even if we are business owners.

Where do you suppose your own hate and intolerance is getting you? Hell would be my guess. Going to church every week doesn't get you off the hook either.
