15. Bigotry is bigotry is bigotry
Tue Feb 18, 2014, 04:41 PM
Feb 2014

the legislature of BOTH states introduced this. The legislature made up of people who were elected by the citizens. Both states have introduced if not the same bill, one that is similar. You cannot deny that. You can't possibly be suggesting that a bill like this is somehow less bad than the bill when it is introduced another part of the country?

I don't give a rats ass about their culture. We all have different ideas, feelings and culture. So what? Their culture, that you suggest is so much better than other states cultures, has introduced this bill that is condoning discrimination. No matter what their culture is that is what has happened in BOTH states.

By the way, I don't think you have a clue what is going on in Kansas. I never suggest anything unless I know what I am talking about. Sitting in the middle of this I see change happening and it would be a good thing if some of you paid some attention to what others are doing. I wager with my involvement in this state I have racked up more hours and knowledge how to work these things than a whole lot of people who want to tell me what could happen in my state. I also wager I know a whole lot more about the overall trend in my state. I am assuming nothing about Maine. They introduced the bill but somehow it isn't as bad there as it is here? No comparison? How interesting.


Bigotry in any state is bigotry. People who suggest otherwise are a real problem. So your bigotry smells better up there?
