Does this mean Trump can fire Pence?

The Log Cabin Republicans are standing behind Trump, party before all else.

Absolutely shameful.
I really wonder how history will look back at this time period in our country.

The freedom to discriminate is central to the GOP.

Next on the agenda. Firing if you are non white

Who supports this here?

 

[Wuzup101]

I really can't believe that this is still going on in this country. What's really annoying is that, even if you don't believe / support whatever group for whatever reason, they aren't doing anything to you. Leave them the fuck alone and let them live their lives as they want to.

Hey, remember when Trump lied that he'd be the most LGBT-friendly President ever?

 

[Moonbeam]

Paying attention to what Trump says is a form of masochism in my opinion.

Its cute how every two days they tell us they are the party of Lincoln.

well they do have a point...after all back in Lincoln`s day there were no gay people...lolol

 

[cytg111]

I got questions. Cause the reverse must be true also then.
Sorry you are just too straight, we have to let you go.
Its just a blanket permission to fire anyone without grounds?
Or does it state a "correct" sexual orientation?
Also, are non cis persons required to wear an arm band in public? You know for straight ppls safety so they dont catch the disease?

This says it all -- This definitely says it all...….

Er, sexuality != sexual orientation

That said, this wont get to SCOTUS.

How much of a hateful piece of shit do you have to be to put out effort to advance this piece of shit argument?

We'll...not all of them. Didn't a chairwoman or former chairwoman resign in protest?? I can't remember her name, or I'd link it.

Yeah and fuck her too for holding out this long in the first place.

I"m sorry. It appears that you are confusing this country for the USA.

What about the deep religious conviction that all these pervs should be stoned to death? Does that count for nothing?

He just mistook LGBT for Lettuce, Bacon and Tomato, which he is all for. He mixes everything else up, why not BLT?

 

[SMOGZINN]

That is interesting. What exactly do you think sexuality means then?

Hasnt this been discussed ad nauseum on this forum?

Not that I can recall. We have argued about the difference between gender and sex, but I'm not aware of many conversations about sexuality verses sexual orientation. I didn't even know that anyone though of those as different things. In fact the dictionary definition of 'sexuality' is "a person's sexual orientation or preference." I'm not aware of any definition that would not include that as a basic part of it.

I'm not being contrary here, I'm actually wondering where you were going with that. I was honestly not aware anyone thought of them as different.

Ok. We'll i know for a fact you're asking to find yet something else to argue with me about. You honestly don't give a rats ass what my opinion is. So let it be.
