La Cage aux Jim Crow: The New Bill That Would Shut Gays Out of Society
This shocking new New Hampshire bill that would allow business to refuse service to gays is basically neo-Jim Crow.
The House judiciary committee of the New Hampshire state legislature convened to discuss a bill that would allow businesses to refuse accommodations, goods, or services to gays getting married. New Hampshire legalized same-sex marriage in 2010, though with the caveat that churches and other religious groups could refuse to participate in same-sex ceremonies. The new bill would take that rule a step further, allowing a bakery to refuse to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple, for instance.
NOT NEO JIM CROW AT ALL.
wrong as all hell, undoubtedly.
because a hallmark of jim crow was state sanctioned physical violence against and murder of black people. i.e. lynchings. remember, the fire hoses and police dogs, etc? that.
good, i love y’all. but this is messy.
Augh, we don’t need to appropriate shit to fight this! Bad white LGB, bad!
