Both Atlanta and Decatur have laws.. They are, the last time I checked, in Georgia.

Tom loses all cred with this assertion. You simply can not fire anyone without serious repercussions for anything other than job performance. I have been a supervisor for over 25 years and have fired easily over a hundred employees. Even in NC...which is a right to work state...you MUST have evidence of poor work performance to fire someone. You can do it ..but...you risk getting hauled in front of the EOC. Take my word for it...YOU BETTER HAVE YOUR SH!T TOGETHER if you are dragged before the EOC for a hearing. I have....and it is not fun.

Not only law, but there would be such protests if someone were fired for being gay the business involved would have to offer some type of "peace offering" to the gay community.

Maybe Tom is referring to Cracker Barrel or Chic-fil-a both of which have evangelical roots. To those businesses if they are willing to give up income from gay patrons it is their choice. But even these companies don't fire people for being gay, it's when the flames start to burn and a gay employee wants to make a political statement, more or less, again pushing the GAY AGENDA, they may be fired because the flaming GAY AGENDA is definitely not in keeping with these companies image.

On a side note...I have supervised several non hetero males in the last 25 years of work. I have never had a problem surface out of any of them and they were some of the best employees I ever had.

This is wrong on so many levels.
First these are fictional characters and no mention of any sexual orientation has been made. The Gay community and their agenda forced their own values on these fictional characters, surely two men who are roommates must be gay.
Next the target audience for Sesame Street is something like 3 to 7 year old kids this age should not even be forced to consider sexual identity. It seems as though the GAY agenda is okay with stealing the innocence of childhood entertainment with a SINISTER agenda.
The decision to teach about sexual identity should be left to parents at least till children are in middle school.

By the logic that makes Burt and Ernie GAY the following inferences could be made about other children's shows:

Into Bestiality
Shaggy, after all when Fred says let's split up Shaggy always makes sure he's with Scooby
Elmer Fudd, how many times have we seen him kiss Bugs Bunny

Pedophile
Barney after all he's an adult that only hangs out with children for fun

Polygamist
Fred he always makes sure Velma and Daphne are with him, at a minimum he's a swinger

You are completely insane.

No that isn't what you want, because if it was you wouldn't be on here complaining. There are more than a few churches that will perform marriage ceremonies for gay couples. You've been very clear, you want the tax incentive and state benefits that come with marriage.

You position isn't about love, it's about money. At least have the intellectual honesty to admit it.

How does 'no legal recognition' gain a US visa for the husband of a Gay man?

If you cannot live in the same country as your partner, how can you build a lasting relationship?

When you answer that question, I'll move on to barriers to Gays being able to live their lives in peace that come from marriage inequality #2

And then we can continue, one by one, all the way up to #1700.

Uh, Cracker Barrel DID fire someone just because they were Gay. My favorite recent story is how the Forrest County (Hattiesburg) Sheriff's department fired a prison employee because he called the police after being the VICTIM of a domestic violence dispute! In GOP held Collin county (TX - Plano), a Gay man was fired employment with the County Government because he is Gay.

By the way, I as a Gay man, cannot fire someone because they are evangelical. Why can evangelicals fire persons because they are Gay (They can and DO in many states)?

And then we get into pay discrepancies. If a company pays as a part of their pay package, the health insurance for the straight partners of employees but refuses to do so for Gay ones, then that is prima facie discrimination. And it carries a real economic cost. And that is WIDESPREAD.

What do workplace behaviors have to do with Children's television? Seriously?

This is way the gay pride movement jumps the shark. I could give a fat rats behind what you do in you bedroom. That's true of some random Bulletin board poster and its true of a coworker.

If the opportunity arises I'll be sure to let you know my beliefs but I am not going to start ignoring and insulting you.

When you decide your agenda includes my kids... well that where I'll start shutting you off and go against anything else you say.

First, read the entire thread. I'm just responding to misinformation.

My agenda doesn't include your kids. My agenda includes MY kids. But if taxpayer funded childrens programming includes opposite sex couples then its not unreasonable to have same sex couples as well.

TV should show reality. And we are a part of the American reality. Its not shoving it in your face to have programming that reflects that.

Gentleman? Never been saddled with that 5 dollar word.

I know several gay people in Augusta. All of them have jobs. For the record, it's not gay people that "most" people have a problem with; it's the ones that act like damn morons. The ones that DON'T want to be treated equal, but with exception. If you want to be treated normal, the best way to do it is to ACT normal, and no, that doesn't mean be straight. You're gay. We get that. Nothing is going to change that. ...but damn, do you really want to be depicted the same way those idiots in those parades look and act? Do you go to work in that ****? If you want to be treated normal, act like you have some damn sense. You don't see straight people looking at those hedonistic idiots at Mardis Gras as "normal". The ONLY thing that I have a problem with is hospital visitation and survivor benefits. I think you guys should have that. If my buddy gets hurt, the only way his partner of 20+ years could see him is because we have a friend that's an administrator at MCG. As for marriage or civil unions, no, I don't support them for the same reason I don't believe in government-sponsored unions for straight people. Namely, because, in a nation of individuals, it's not their f'n business.

BTW, I don't live in Augusta. I live in Evans. There is a difference.

Links to stories? Also it certainly sounds like your standards which fit the GAY AGENDA protocol would force churches to employ gays and pay same sex benefits. If organizations choose not to offer benefits to same sex couples they should have that right. As far as health insurance Obamacare will have everyone on single payer system soon enough so it won't matter.

I call fabrics on this....prove it.

His whole shtick is that they don't give benefits to a man's boyfriend thus, not equal pay to a married man. Of course he should be comparing single men of straight or gay orientation. They are treated equally as neither get benefits for their girlfriends/boyfriends.
