Fuck the baker and his religion.

I think this^^^

Quote from: SciFiAuthor on February 26, 2014, 03:08:17 AM
But what happens if we frame this as a Palestinian baker that won't make a wedding cake for an Israeli Jew? Or vice versa? Do the rules change?

Answered this^^^^

What the hell is a ''Murican''?


It's what those who speak British call rednecks. (in a suitable accent) Athens is a good starting point, but it can stretch south too.

But there's no irony in that..

That's the same tired, old narrative that all big government liberals present. It is not a zero-sum game.  The answer is not absence of a government, but rather, a much smaller less intrusive government.

Only I'm not a big government liberal; Only some Americans (and certain African and Middle Eastern citizens) decide a person's opinion based on who they voted for.

This isn't about government though, it's the NFL perhaps deciding if they'll make the commercial decision to have the SB in AZ.

That would be an anarchist, so no, I'm nothing close to that. I'm saying that you can write 1,000, 10,000, a million laws and you will still not solve every problem of mankind. Do you think you can? Where does it stop?

We have way too many laws and are way to quick on the draw to write them. At this point, whether you like it or not, whether you know it or not, you are a felon. You have violated some law, somewhere, at some time that could jail you. It could be a choice of an orchid you have out in the yard, or spilling a can of oil or some other chemical while you're working on the car. It's simply a matter of whether a prosecutor wishes to go after you. It's like that in all western countries. Our legal systems cannot be condensed to a book. The require a library full of thousands of volumes, perhaps more.

Well, you tell me how that's acceptable. Hell, tell me how it's even intelligent to do that.


I agree, we do have far too many laws. And yes, it's the same here too. But in the forlorn hope that a great many of them will be repealed anytime soon, what is the answer?

If the law passes then the marketplace could decide if it will get repealed. Gay companies like Starbucks and Apple could refuse to do business in AZ.

No!!! They should be made to do business in AZ. Together with the advertisers of the Superbowl. What will be funny (I think it hilarious), to see who blinks first. If it is played in AZ, let's hope Janet Jackson doesn't get re- invited and her malfunctioning wardrobe (Number 1 in the 'All time toe curling and professionally outraged euphemisms' award).

If the government stayed out of peoples business, this would not even be an issue. Why? Because every state would be exactly the same.

Exactly the same in which respects?

I don't think they actually advocate extermination, rather I think they usually claimed tactics of terrorism to preserve their status quo. Selective lynchings and all. Same thing the Islamic world does today, actually. It's complete bullshit, I'll be the first to say that and I don't give a shit what color or orientation someone is. That said, who says what idea is right and wrong in society? Do you really want the government doing that?

How about we do it, as the people. We seem to get along better if we do it on a person to person interactive basis, rather than passing a law against this person or that person, or that idea or this idea.

Do you think that all laws should be scrapped and government disbanded and just allow the population decide amongst themselves what is right and wrong?

I think it would come down to the contracts in place.

Oh, that's easy. If the NFL have terms and conditions in place for the contracts (and I would think they have), then they can say that AZ state law has precluded those T & G's being fulfilled. The NFL would not say they will avoid AZ if they weren't sure they could legally-unless they've employed really stupid lawyers.

Quote
“Our policies emphasize tolerance and inclusiveness and prohibit discrimination based on age, gender, race, religion, sexual orientation or any other improper standard,” NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told USA Today. “We are following the issue in Arizona and will continue to do so should the bill be signed into law, but will decline further comment at this time.”


The Arizona Super Bowl Host committee released a statement saying it disagreed with the bill and its impact on Arizona’s economy.

“On that matter we have heard loud and clear from our various stakeholders that adoption of this legislation would not only run contrary to that goal but deal a significant blow to the state's economic growth potential,” a committee spokesperson said. “We do not support this legislation.”

Stakeholders, read: Advertising revenue. AZ Superbowl won't be touched with a barge pole. Business choosing who it wishes who to do business with I guess.

Quote from: FightTheFuture on February 26, 2014, 02:20:12 AM

It's really very simple. Any private business owner should be free to decide with whom he chooses to do business. It's none of the government's concern.

Neither should it be a big deal if the NFL chooses not to hold the Superbowl in AZ. Or would the government be forced to make them do so?

Quote from: SciFiAuthor on February 26, 2014, 02:11:30 AM
So let's make this more interesting. Should a black business owner have the right to refuse business to a Klansman?


Not if you believe that comparing a group that advocates white supremacy and the extermination of black people with sexual orientation. But which fool would do that?

Its a step back for basic human rights. Whats next? Are they going to refuse service to someone because of the color of their skin?

Possibly; Or those advocating women and children having equal rights. The bible says a lot things, a great deal of it would be illegal if practiced today. I wonder if all fairy tales should be given equal rights and given equal credence in law? Ireland has a great deal of their law inextricably tied to the Vatican..The same brain washing, some here accuse the gay lobby of practicing.
#27225
Easy answer. NFL (IF it chooses) doesn't play the Superbowl in AZ. There are a few dozen states to choose from.

Wait...I thought he said he saw NAZI era tanks on the moon......so they upgraded?

Well of course. When Churchill, Eisenhower and Stalin carved up Germany and the distribution of NAZI scientists (ssshhhhhhhh, it's sensitive to NASA): The moon also took delivery of new Russian tanks..

I'm more interested in Hoagland's newly found "Dutch boy formation" found in the taintal region of Cydonia

proof positive Mars was once inhabited by androgynous lilliputians

What news on the discovered Martian crop circles? In the fields behind the apartments.

Of course they want to hide it! The Mooninites are clearly using Soviet Cold War Era equipment... Think of the fallout! The moon is a Soviet Satellite (literally) and it has fired on Apollo 13! Interstellar War with the Soviets in space!!!!


Now you're just exaggerating...deliberately. I saw the film and Tom Hanks brought it back fine.. I don't why Jim Lovell was on the deck of the aircraft carrier when they were recovered: I think he was a NASA Schill and got himself in on the mission.

Yeah social justice is for assholes


I didn't like the film because apart from the Skyline, I thought the rest of the plot cried out for 'Give me more depth'.. Jodie Foster was dire, and I can imagine she looks back at that as one of her darker moments. I thought the South African accent was too thick from Sharlto Copley, and I chuckled thinking that some might ask their companion "Which part of Europe is he from?".

The Social justice message was a worthy one, and had the 1984 esque overtones. BUT: District 9 was for me one of the most involving, powerful, disgusting, uplifting, heartbreaking, wonderful, disturbing films I think I've ever seen. It might be unfair to compare the two, and Blomkamp set a high bar, that would always be difficult to get level with, let alone surpass. But I honestly waited for Elysium to get on with it and ask me questions like District 9 did.

2c supplied.

No your missing the bigger picture! Clearly the Mooninites have surface to air capabilities to protect their glass domes on the dark side!!!! The first Apollo missions made them realize how vulnerable they were. Apollo 13... Not a mechanical error... That damage was caused by Mooninites AA fire!

Eventually the AA sites became so many that we had to call off the last two Apollo missions because it was suicide to fly over the Mooninite missile launch sites!! You just have to look at the data!


I can accept all that. It can't be anything else; I just wish Richard (C) Hoagland had said it, then I'd sleep more soundly, assured an expert had confirmed the astonishing data. Scientists just want to hide all this data.

I wasn't aware of crops on the moon.

That's because 'they' don't want you to know. Hoagland has the data.

Looks like someone took a Sat image of a SA6 sam site in the desert.........


That's a scurrilous thing to think and say! Heretic. Hoagland says it's on the moon, on the moon it jolly well is if he says it is..


So there.

Haha! Well, I'm not sure I am convinced, but that deserves a drink.


It only deserves a drink if a) you've had a skinful already b) You're convinced that crop circles exist on the moon*.. Your round I think.. ;D


*In someones mind, the moon is really a lush fertile paradise reminiscent of Kirk's ex missus making Genesis.

To everyone that says we haven't used the term "vaginas".

All I can say is, you aren't listening with any discernment. Of course we don't use the term outright, we are sensitive to the fact that some of our listeners may be offended. That being the case we use euphemisms. Trust me when I say that every word uttered on the show is a euphemism.

So the next time you listen, just think, vagina vagina vagina vagina.

Incidentally, what am I listening for? What noise do vaginas make? Can we have Vag hits, the greatest sounds?
