Leaders cave into LGBT lies and agenda
Betrayal: In Georgia, turncoat Republican Governor Nathan Deal just vetoed an extremely modest bill to protect pastors and churches from having to participate in same-sex 'weddings' and give some minor protection to religious schools from having to hire someone who openly opposes their religious beliefs. Deal ignored dozens of examples of discrimination against people of faith that have occurred across the country and instead adopted the approach advocated by LGBT extremists that any accommodation of religious objections to gay 'marriage' amounts to "discrimination" against gays and lesbians. Deal and the extremists demand that every single person, religious organization and small business in Georgia agree to personally participate in a same-sex 'wedding' ceremony if asked, regardless of their deeply-held religious views.
Backlash: It is now clear that LGBT extremists and the left will accept absolutely no dissent from the orthodoxy they wish to impose on the country and they are prepared to utilize cultural and economic threats to get their way. In Georgia, the head of the grossly-misnamed Human Right Campaign demanded that Hollywood studios and production companies threaten to withdraw all television and movie productions from Georgia if Governor Deal signed the legislation protecting pastors and churches from participating in same-sex ceremonies. Within days a who's who of Hollywood weighed in with statements against the legislation including Walt Disney Co., MGM, Sony, Lionsgate, 21st Century Fox, Discovery, Time Warner, CBS, and NBC, among others. Corporate America had already been working against the legislation for weeks and a group of giant businesses under the name Georgia Prospers was successful in stripping the legislation of most of the most important legal protections that are needed to help small businesses and other people of faith. Nonetheless, the NCAA expressed their concerns about "discrimination" and the National Football League went so far as to suggest that the legislation would damage the ability of the state to again host a Super Bowl. Activists suggested that this legislation could cost Georgia billions of dollars in revenues as companies and events withdrew from the state.
Remember, all of this manufactured outrage was over not forcing pastors and churches to participate in same-sex "weddings" that violate their religious beliefs.
Meanwhile the situation in North Carolina has sparked similar manufactured outrage from the wealthy and the connected. LGBT groups have labeled it "blatantly discriminatory" and "the most extreme bill of its kind in the nation." Just as predictably, corporate America and the sports industry immediately followed suit with American Airlines and Wells Fargo speaking out against the legislation, and the National Basketball Association hinting it might move the 2017 All Star game out of Charlotte. Plans for public protests and boycotts are in the works.
All this because lawmakers in North Carolina do not think it is appropriate to subject girls and women to being confronted by biologic males in intimate facilities like bathrooms, locker rooms and showers.
The situation we are facing is a clarion call for us to rise up and fight back like we've never fought before. We cannot allow corporate bullies and the cultural elite to destroy to social fabric of this nation, stripping it of common sense and essential principles guaranteed by our constitution.
