As things evolve I recognize that there may be a need for a new law once in a while, but 40,000?

Take CA for example. They want to recognize and teach kids about the contributions/accomplishments of gays and lesbians. If a person accomplishes something worth recognizing, then recognize it. Of what importance is their sexual preference?

So some woman gets a new job as the National Financial Analyst for a large corporation. She was courted and stolen from a competitor because her contributions the bottom line were huge. She is introduced, her abilities are applauded, and oh ya she's a lesbian you know. I don't get it.

I heard Happy Hour was being outlawed in Utah..... Hard to understand how a government can regulate how a resturant prices it's food and beverages at a certain time of day.

Utah: New laws make any daily drink specials illegal, essentially banning happy hour. :wow: . :wow:

I'm glad I don't live there !!. :grin:

Happy hour has been banned in MA for a longtime now to protect us from ourselves.

Same in Indiana, drink specials must be all day not for a specific time period. They claim it promotes binge drinking before the time cut off. MM

To hell with all 40,000 of 'em.
I'll stick with my current plan of following the original 10.

I sure hope you can stick to your plan. Us CSR folks will be happy to recognize your accomplishment of course we will have to know if you're gay or lesbian to properly do that. :smt043

We are a society of who you are instead of what you contribute. Conservatives are to blame for "outing" and liberals for "in your face". The liberal media always wants to make a point about sexual preference like it contributed to the accomplishment.

As for the 10 that's a losing bet. We can't keep any of them which is why Christmas and Easter are important dates.
I will try to keep the 2 basic laws. Share the gosple and love my brother as myself. If I can get these 2 down the rest will fall into place.

I don't get it.
FYI... If you are "gay" or "lesbian", you are not following the original 10.
