WHAT THE...?

Remember the last post? The one where a digression occurred that included mention of the Muslim bakery being allowed to refuse a gay customer's request to bake a wedding cake v. the Christian bakeries being fined heavily for the same thing?  This is NO joke!

What the *bleep* is happening here???  Did you read/hear the whole story?  Not only were they awarded damages for being fired over refusing to perform a job they sought out and were hired for, but the EEOC, who is a division of the Federal government fought on their behalf for their religious freedoms!  When did it become OK for the Federal Government to take sides?  Every freedom loving American should be up in arms over this!

The author's opinion is this:  When an organization is a publicly traded company or is owned/operated by a governmental entity, then the company can't refuse service.  However, if the company is privately owned, they should be able to stand behind their Constitutionally guaranteed right to act within the bounds of their religious convictions!

The two drivers were hired by Star Transport, LLC, knowing they would be required to deliver alcoholic beverages.  Star Transport, LLC is not a publicly held entity, therefore, when they fully disclosed the nature and duties of the job to the applicants, the applicants should have moved on to another position if they had objections to the requirements.  The drivers did not do this.   They accepted the positions and then stood firm on religious grounds.  I get that IF they DIDN'T know.....but they knew.  And then they lose a job they have a moral objection to because they refused to perform their duties that they knew about but signed on for anyway...and then sue!  Maybe it's their retirement plan?  C'mon!!!

And then there are the Christian owned/operated business that are also not publicly traded or owned who are not afforded the right to stand on their convictions and are singled out and penalized. Where is the EEOC for them?  In a quick google search I found a handful...florist, baker, farm and pizza parlor.  And you know well that where you find a few there are many more.

Careful....we are on a slippery slope and the Liberals are throwing more and more oil onto the path before us.  We must vote in representatives who will stand up for the Constitution and its Amendments.  If we don't, we are going to be unrecognizable as a free country within our lifetimes.
