I vote we move it all to Chicago. Instead of backwoods Indiana. All the proponents of the Indiana Right to Religious Freedom law can simply have economic intercourse among themselves with diminishing profits. and fade away. while we all go build better things somewhere else.
Playing at United Center in '16 makes sense. Hope it's available. Or come on up to the twin cities!

Could you stupid liberals leave politics out of sports, please? Fight for your beliefs based on the merits. Quit trying to leverage every last popular thing to get what you want.
Thanks for the consideration....3 2 1...

Why should a business owner be forced to participate in what they believe is a sin? Why would a gay couple want to force a baker or florist to make them a cake or furnish flower arrangements for their wedding? There are plenty of businesses that will take their money without a fuss.
This isn't about discrimination. It's about forcing society to accept a lifestyle that a very large portion doesn't.
For me, I don't give a crap what you want to do in your bedroom. Just leave it there. And if I was one of those bakers or florists, I'd take the money and let them wonder why the cake tasted like poo.....LMAO!
First, business owners who refuse service based on something like that are really dumb business people. Second, Indiana is going to lose a ton of money thanks to this law as several major corporations are planning to move their business elsewhere. You might not think it's about discrimination, but a few really big businesses certainly do.
I disagree. The businesses that have said they would "consider" leaving, are making statements based on national PR. The law in question has been on the books in Indiana for 20 years.
As for business people doing business based on their religious principles, well it's been going on for a very long time and been very prosperous for a large part of this country. Can you say Chik-fila? Winner winner chicken dinner. They know how to beat the rabble rousers in this game.
OMG you liberals have a mental disorder. Screw the bigotry you have against the religious, right. The heck with the constitution because your belief is only the correct way to think.
Gee let's let a kkk member inter a black owned baker and demand he decorate an image of a hanging black person. Idiots!

Don't wanna turn this into a political topic on the bball board, but Gen Con is likely to leave which is a $50 million business for the state and Salesforce has pretty much stopped business in the state. I would also bet this law will cost Indy from hosting another Final 4 in the near future (aside from next week obviously).
That's all I'll say for the sake of the rest of the board not having to read political banter.
This is my last reply on this. This again is the liberal mafia at work. Their are at least 31 other states with some type religious freedom laws and I'm sure no one even new. Why? Because it is not anti Gay. Get over it faciasts.
WHAT???? Let's put it this way. No "liberal" anti-religious person has showed up on doorstep and tried to convince me that atheism is the way to go. However, in the last month I have had both Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormon missionaries come to bother me at my house and on my own personal property. I don't think any of us are proposing to throw out any documents and especially not the Constitution.
However, it appears your documents may tell you the correct way to think and they also apparently tell you how to think for the rest of us as well.
Do you think Chik Fil A refuses service to people that it considers "sinners?" Like I said... stupid business practice.
Remember when a very large portion didn't accept African-Americans? Yeah, to hehl with civil rights!
Yes it does. But all discrimination isn't outlawed. Where persons have no choice, race, creed, gender, etc are fine. Who someone chooses to have sex with shouldn't fall under this category, IMO. Sexual preference isn't something you can look at someone and know.
It never ceases to amuse me how religious folk like to pick which sins are greater than others. We should all have to fill out a sin questionnaire before business transactions just to make sure we're pure enough to buy goods from someone.
Didn't honor your father or mother back in 1992? No soup for you!

You all realize there are 19 states with religious freedom laws, including Illinois, so I guess Chicago is out. And there is a federal religious freedom law. The hyperbole surrounding the Indiana law is a joke.

Homosexuals aren't a protected class in Indiana, which makes this law different from the other states.
Not remotely true. You can't watch any program today without some liberal shill pushing their evolutionary religion on you. Evolution is a state sponsored religion and no one asked the rest of us if we wanted to fund that fraud. No matter what anyone's opinion, Life will never ever be able to create itself. Ever.
As for this law, it's not the least bit bigoted....unless yr a brainwashed liberal. If some Klansmen walked into a T shirt store and told the gay owner that he wanted 1000 shirts that says "All gays should be shot", shouldn't the owner have the right to tell them to go pound sand??? Or should he be bullied, like those lesbians did to that bakery that forced them to close (way to go HomoNazis) because their values would have been compromised? Those two could have went to any other bakery but they didn't. Their goal was to screw over people that these lesbians were intolerant of. If those two idiots hadn't pulled that crap, then maybe this law wouldn't have been necessary. As for the hopelessly corrupt NCAA, they can go hang w/ their liberal agenda crap.
Save it. If you don't have believe in God, what you're really saying is that you believe that Life created itself which is a mathematical and scientific impossibility. You have FAITH that Life created itself, making you VERY religious.
