Arizona Senate approves the 'Be a Bigot for Religious Freedoms' bill
Oh, Arizona...
Yesterday, their Senate voted 17-13 to pass SB 1062, a silly bill that gives religious groups the right to be bigots in the name of the Lord. Basically, they will be able to discriminate against LGBT people.
This bill also allows folks and businesses to refuse services to other folks or organizations that challenges their religious freedoms. This bill was fostered and pushed by the Christian Center for Arizona Policy and GOP state senator, Steve Yarborough.
Interesting when you think about it. This man is thinking this bill will protect God, by allowing folks to be assholes to others. So Christian like. Hopefully, this will completely fail, but the nerve of folks like Steve is very interesting.
