I know... long time, no posting. I've been a bit wrapped up in Spring!! Oh, it was a very cold winter, and I'm loving this that we are having now... you know, when it isn't snowing. Yep.. it snowed on Tuesday. There's no escape! But, the crocusses are blooming, the daffodils are blooming, and Spring just might be here, finally??
Found this great post on http://ragingprogressive.tumblr.com/
Mississippi recently passed a law allowing businesses to deny LGBT people on religious grounds, but some business owners aren’t having it. Hundreds of businesses throughout the state are displaying these stickers in their windows to demonstrate their commitment to equality. It’s part of “If You’re Buying, We’re Selling,” a campaign by Equality Mississippi and 30 local businesses to combat harmful effects of the religious freedom bill. Yes, yes, yes. Mississippians, look for this when you shop. (via The Advocate)
I want things to be taken a step further. I believe we need truth in advertising. Truth in to whom the business caters.
What I would like to see is for all businesses to have to place one of these stickers, either one, in their front window so everyone can see. That way, the buying public can make informed decisions on where to spend our money. If these so called "religious objections" are so real, then be proud of what an asshole you are. Don't wait to surprise your buying public, put your money where your mouth is. Maybe in some areas, people would actually prosper with this tag in the front window. But, I would hope that the public wouldn't generally support any business operated by a bigot.
hugs.
