Here's the right wing theocratic fascist who promoted the bill and says that people and businesses can just take themselves somewhere else if they don't like it.

This has become a national epidemic.

1. Right up until these new laws are overturned as unconstitutional

In the meantime, folks like our friends in the North Carolina* and Mississippi legislatures will pass their mean little squirts of bile, endangering many of their own citizens and providing succor to the most irrationally violent people they can instigate. Then they can fundraise off of scared people by complaining about the courts legislating from the bench when judges rule that society is supposed to work for everyone, not just the bigots hiding behind their crosses and their bibles.

*By the way, notice how North Carolina introduced, passed and enacted their little hate crime all in one day? Don't feed me that bullshit that there isn't enough time on the legislative or congressional calendar to pass something. Same thing happened when federal funding to run airports was about to expire on the eve of yet another congressional recess. Faced with the prospect of having to wait at the airports for hours, Congress got emergency funds released toot fuckin' sweet.
