    Well, there you have it. I thought this would happen. I will never set foot in that state, nor spend a single thin dime there, nor purchase anything made there, if they make anything there.

    Damn. I've only been there once since my grandma lives there. Looks like I won't be visiting NC anytime soon.

    See what happens when you vote Republican? Meanwhile here in Michigan, our idiot governor signed a law today that allows adoption agencies to flat-out refuse to place a child with a gay couple.

    The more people disagree with them the more extreme they become. They claim to champion the Constitution, but it when it comes to their religion, they walk all over it.

    Pat McCrory ran as a pro-choice moderate Republican. This isn't the first time he's had his vetoes overridden. He's tried to keep the rabid state legislature in check, but time and again, they've gone over his head.

    Hypocrisy at its worst. They just don't want to accept that everyone has equal rights and that it shouldn't be their decision. :dry:
