This is a YouTube video arguing as to whether or not businesses should be obliged to serve people in the LGBT community. Paul Joseph Watson (whose dark, sardonic humour never ceases to make me laugh) was the one who made it.
I think there were references as to whether or not Christian businesses and/or charities should be obliged to do things for such people (or anyone else opposed to the concept); including a Christian bakery that was accused of discrimination because it didn't want to bake a cake for a gay wedding.
PJW then asserted that it would make good business sense to oblige them (or in his own words, it would be a 'dumb thing' not to do so), otherwise there are many other businesses who would if one doesn't. I agree with him there (though I don't necessarily think it is 'dumb', but if they hold that belief as 'sacred', then it is their right to do so).
However, what I think is wrong is that the US has become such a dictatorship recently that so many businesses are being caught out for not pandering to the LGBT community.
And the same is happening elsewhere - in New Zealand, for instance, NZ Charities Can Now Be De-registered for Not Agreeing to Same-sex Marriage. A lot of innocent people will miss out on the help of those charities because of the petty-mindedness and vindictiveness of a select few.
Not only is it unfair to businesses and other organisations, but it also wastes the court's valuable time, and that of both the plaintiff's and defendant's time and money when there are more important issues at stake.
So, to the LGBT community, here's a thought: Go to another bakery what *will* cater to your needs; or better still, why not bake your own cakes.
More recently, a doctor (presumably a family doctor and paediatrician) expressed her concern over child welfare, including the sexualisation of children via the Safe Schools Coalition - she was concerned the scheme might teach kids (including those in primary school) things they might not need to know). Some very vocal members of the LGBTIQ+ community (the list is getting longer) were calling for her removal as a doctor and for her licence to practise medicine to be revoked. One of these day, one of their children might just need her help and she might not be around. That is what I find dangerous (and not in a 'dangerous faggot' Milo Yiannopoulis kind of way either) :/
A few mothers also were concerned for their own kids coming home and asking them questions like 'what is a clitoris?' Or telling them them that their teacher showed them how to use a dildo :/
If that doesn't ruin lives, then I don't know what does :/
Anyway, that is my story and I am sticking to it :D
