1. Good question

[MANative]

2. Haven't heard anything.

BTW - in case you missed the post on the LGBT Civil Rights group, I've created a Facebook page. The address is www.facebook.com/equalityforallactivism. Let me know if you have any ideas or want to be added as an admin. I think I'd need at least an email address to do that.

5. Thanks MANative. Great idea, I'll check it out.

Appreciate any grassroots effort to speak to positive civil & equal rights of LGBT & all who suffer at the mouths of Bigots.
The fact that they legislate bigotry under the guise of "religion" means we, who oppose strongly, must never allow them any more forward motion.

I want all States who have and are about to pass laws of bigotry to see & hear what they are up against.
It is our democracy and we need to take it upon ourselves to keep it JUST.

Federal dollars & Tax Exemption MUST be lawfully considered when States and businesses legislate hate, bigotry & discrimination based on religious ideology

9. I posted a whole bunch of ideas

three hour and forty-five minutes ago. Replies 0, Records 0, Views 117. DU is an echo chamber and a deaf one at that.

12. Deaf dumb & blind my friend.

Plenty of good we can do besides spend our days arguing against RW ooze .
Absolutely appreciate your approach & I will be visiting your page regularly.
We are in it till the presidency is ours & the GOPBillies are diminished.
Carry on..

14. If you can use it, by all means run with it

I know this sounds extremely cliche, but we need to declare war.

[misterhighwasted]

16. Oh Yes..It is war & the salvation of our America.

Critical effin stuff we are dealing with & Nov 2016 is the deadline.

3. Even if she did, the media may not be reporting it

4. of all the people to hold accountable for an Indiana state law

the junior senator from Massachusetts doesn't seem like someone that would come to mind naturally. And yet this is the second time I've seen this come up at DU.

[Lochloosa]

6. My first thought.

[davidpdx]

15. The DU Double Standard

See my sig line for another amazing one.

24. As a resident of Massachusetts

I feel compelled to brag that she's our senior Senator.

Regardless, I don't care if she has put out a statement on this as she's supportive of gay rights, and while this law has gotten a lot of attention, isn't yet doing any proven harm, especially since it doesn't go into effect until July. Warren is most focused on things like Wall Street reform where harm has already been done.

I don't say that to minimize the possible impact of Indiana's bigoted law, but right now it's not something I would expect every politician to put out a press release or twitter/Facebook message about.

7. Yes. Warren said it's almost as IGNORANT as the Clintons' "1993 Religous Freedom Restoration Act".

We don't need more shit from the Clinton dynasty.

10. If you don't know that those laws are different

then you frankly have no business posting about this subject. First, the law Clinton signed which was authored by Ted Kennedy, did not extend this right to anyone but people (no corporations, no non profits). Second, the law Clinton signed required the government to be a party to the suit while this one doesn't. That means that if person goes to a store that is privately run, the owner refuses to serve them, under this law BUT NOT THE ONE CLINTON SIGNED that person would have no right whatsoever to damages if the person who refused service did so for religious reasons. Again, either educate yourself or don't post on this subject.

21. Nailed it...

11. Her name is Elizabeth not Liz

we would, justifiably be outraged if a poster posted a thread did Hil Clinton do x y or z

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

23. Noted, but I thought she went by Liz, if not then I wont use it

[LynneSin]

13. Should we start a thread about ever single Democrat senator to see their stance?

Really?

That's pretty obvious.

And she prefers Elizabeth.

Here's food for thought. If you think that one day you'd like to get Elizabeth Warren supporters to support your candidate it would probably help if you didn't piss them off like this. You attract more bees to honey than vinegar.

Just saying.

[misterhighwasted]

17. Getting petty. But I expect just that when a point is deemed pointless

[RiverLover]

19. Oh wow, did she announce she's running & we should expect national coverage of her views

on all prominent national issues??

Sweet.
