Can you imagine the signs outside Indiana Bakeries and Flower Shops???





We serve only traditional clients with either familial or hetro-sexual desires.

We serve all clients except the transgendered or those whose purchase possibly includes a transgendered recipient.

We serve all but those of the Popish religion.

Moslems will enter store at their own risk.

December-May romances not catered.

Killers of our Christ shall not get their cupcakes here!

Only Euro-Americans with genetic papers need enter.

No illegal immigrants shall taste our pastries

etc., etc., etc.

(And the Republicans wonder why reaching out to various groups doesn't seem to work for them.)

Suggestion to Indiana DUers, especially ones who own a business: Put a sign outside your doors which reads, "Since our religious beliefs prohibit the tolerance of bigotry, we reserve the right to refuse service to conservative or fundamentalist Christians."

Or, you can hang up this sign: "Please don't pray in our restaurant and we won't eat in your church."

It'll only be a matter of time before they start crying discrimination and persecution.

BUT . . . for over six decades I've seen thousands who love nothing better than to tell others what they should do, how they should feel, etc. I hope you don't full into this category. If so, my condolences.

You wrote 'point taken.', but then you take a jab at me anyway.

You seem to be using "when did you stop beating your wife" in this exchamge with me. Again, what the hell is wrong with you?

6. "Have a nice day! (Unless you're gay)" will probably be a big seller at the local trade shows.

I'm hoping that this backfires intensely on these people. Hatred is a disease.
