NOM Has The Arizona Sadz
From an unsigned post published today to NOM's blog:
Yesterday, Governor Brewer of Arizona vetoed the "Religious Freedom Restoration Act," a bill similar to one stalled in the Kansas legislature. The rejection of these pieces of legislation by conservative politicians is very disappointing. If there’s one thing we've learned over the years from witnessing the redefinition of marriage in several states and in other places around the world, it is that there is an inevitable conflict between the genderless marriage regime and the conscience rights of those who believe in marriage as the union of one man and one woman. Wherever marriage is redefined, the story is the same: florists, photographers, bakers, caterers, social hall owners—anyone who runs a business that caters to the celebration of nuptials—these individuals are forced to choose between their deeply held beliefs about marriage and the prospect of being forced out of business by onerous lawsuits claiming ‘discrimination.’The post concludes by directing NOM's supporters to demand a national version of the bill that was vetoed yesterday in Arizona.
