In Arizona, Businesses Are Legally Required to Participate in Homosexual Celebrations
03 14 , 23:31 Filed in: News
Arizona Governor, Janice K. Brewer vetoed a bill that gave business religious freedom. The bill would have insured that business will not be subject to penalties for refusing to participate in homosexual activities. All over the country businesses are being sued for not taking part in homosexual celebrations.
According to the Times, businesses have been sued for the following:
New Mexico, a photographer declined to take pictures of a lesbian couple’s commitment ceremony. In Washington State, a florist would not provide flowers for a same-sex wedding. And in Colorado, a baker refused to make a cake for a party celebrating the wedding of two men.
Arizona had a chance to prevent the above in its state by passing a bill that would allow business to exercise their religious believes and not participate in homosexual celebrations. However, the governor vetoed the bill.
America is said to be “the land of the free”. Unfortunately in Arizona, the freedom to practice your religion is not one of them.
