Basically bill is designed to where it seems to be targeting LGBTQ+, but gives freedom to deny anyone. What you think Billy Bob gonna do when a black and white couple walks in?



:manny: I keep telling y'all these anti-LGBTQ pushes are republicans phase 1 and we're literally next. Anti-LGBTQ shyt on Monday will be anti-black shyt on Wednesday. Y'all need to get over what people do in the privacy of their bedrooms, shyt isnt a game
Sadly too many black folks think white people will pick and choice which groups to discriminate against. Never been the case. if they are discrimatory against one group they are against all of them.
actually if anything i suspect they are going as hard as they are against gays because they know there will be less resistance from us, but they understand the language in those bills will be the same or vague enough to allow them to use it against us a well.
harder to pass an anti black people law then it is to pass an anti gay law and include some stuff you can use against black people in the wording.

Not Black people's problem
Especially since black people vote democrat in our sleep more than anybody. Somehow people run to us telling us we need to voter harder instead of running to these other groups that have way higher amounts of republican voters with them.

Sadly this is the crux. Whether we like it or not, you cannot support discrimination of any kind because the ultimate goal is to bring back Jim Crow. :francis:
The ultimate goal for the other side of that argument is to make Black people fight everybody else's fight, by trying to tie interracial marriage with gay marriage. Most Black people don't have a dog in either fight.

Problem is that it's our fight whether we like it or not. I hate that but it's the truth. They always try to be slick wit shyt.

Black people have to stop acting like it is their job and only theirs to fight for the rights of other people. Black people struggles have helped White women, gays, immigrants, religious outcasts on and on and on. It is time for other people to fight their own fights.
