California Bill Threatens Religious Freedom of Those Who Oppose Homosexuality

Christian schools, churches and others who hold to a traditional understanding of marriage and sexuality would be open to lawsuits for teaching biblical truth about homosexuality or transgenderism

Bill passed:

Quote
AB 2943 bans books, conferences, counseling advocating Traditional views on gender and sexual orientation

The California Assembly approved a bill today 50-18 that tells churches and other with traditional beliefs about gender and sexual orientation that advocating for their views could get them sued. AB 2943, declares “advertising, offering to engage in, or engaging in sexual orientation change efforts with an individual” is illegal under state’s consumer fraud law.

Cannot disagree with Ben Shapiro's rant about this:

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Talk of political compromise is meaningless when one side seeks your silence.

New York magazine’s Jonathan Chait published a piece asking why more disgruntled Republicans don’t punish their party by switching sides...Never Trump Republicans — especially Never Trump social conservatives — were steadfastly Never Hillary and remain (as Chait calls it) “Never-Democrats.” Why?

...It’s interesting, for example, that Chait makes the argument just as the California State Assembly is set to vote on a bill that would actually — among other things — ban the sale of books expressing orthodox Christian beliefs about sexual morality.

Yes, ban the sale of books.

Assembly Bill 2943 would make it an “unlawful business practice” to engage in “a transaction intended to result or that results in the sale or lease of goods or services to any consumer” that advertise, offer to engage in, or do engage in “sexual orientation change efforts with an individual.”

Get out of California.

Let it destroy itself.

And let that be an example to everyone else what happens when the left gets full control of a state.

This kind of totalitarianism is not limited to California, and cannot be contained.

Like all leavening, it will seek to spread and leaven the whole loaf.

That is the nature of that crap.

While I generally agree, there are no defensible lines to be drawn in California.
