New"religious liberty"

Wed, 02/12/20

Gotta love the scare quotes and subtle (not) framing of the issue in this one. At least they included a little perspective on the religious side… sandwiched between how bad this idea is. I hope the bill is successful.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
