WORLD NEWS BUREAU - With the passage of bill S.B. 1062 by the Arizona legislature has come a torrent of breathtaking distortions and outright lies by the left and LGBT proponents.
Forum comment sections are awash with indignant outrage over a law they claim would allow Arizona business owners to discriminate with impunity against gays (and presumably other perverts).
In order to cut through the lies, here's the truth about this bill, although be warned, truth matters little to liberals, and obviously not at all to gays.
The following from The Christian Post - Issue Analysis: Arizona Bill Does Not Give Businesses License to Discriminate Against Gays
1. If Gov. Jan Brewer (R) signs it, the bill, S.B. 1062, would make some modifications to a 1999 Arizona law called the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).
2. Under current Arizona law, if a business wanted to discriminate against gays, they would not need this bill to be passed to do so. It is not currently illegal for a business to deny service to someone because they are gay. Some cities in Arizona have ordinances against it but there is no state law against it. If business owners in Arizona wanted to deny service to gays, they could do so in most of the state under current law.
3. Even though business owners across most of Arizona (and much of the United States) have the right to deny service to gays, they are not doing so. Opponents of the bill claim it would usher in an era of "Jim Crow for gays," in which gays would be denied service at businesses across the state. If business owners really wanted to do this, though, they could already be doing it. The bill does not make that more or less likely. Business owners do not want to deny service to gays. This is not because they fear government sanction. Rather, it is because: 1) Their religious, ethical or moral beliefs tell them it is wrong to deny service; and/or, 2) the profit motive - turning away customers is no way to run a business.
