You do realize it's because this isn't news, right? He can't actually deny anyone a permit and would be sued. This is playing to his base.

Ok, I guess. It's not because someone is sued that it doesn't make the news. If something is scandalous, and trust me the other way around would have been more than scandalous, I believe it would have been viral.

Ok, let me rephrase this for you.

A governer denounced Chic-Fil-A's president's words, citing that he won't get a permit in some specific part of his jurisdiction. Governor's words are denounced by the ACLU. Liberals agree that denying permits would be unlawful, even Jon Stewart of the Daily Show (our God).
 Where exactly is your problem?

By "other way around" you're referring to Oreo, correct? How is it that one company is defended by Republicans in a statement, and Oreo is denounced, yet both time liberals are in the wrong. Tell me that. We really can never be right. You have no idea how frustrating it is that we're always in the wrong according to your party.

@bold. Lol, that's exactly how I feel. I feel like the Christian position is always in the wrong.

I'm not familiar with the Oreo case, I'm not sure what happened there all I know about it is that they promote gay rights. Other than that I have no idea so I haven't used any other info in my PoV.

@Where my problem is, it lies in the fact that in a hypothetical scenario, at step 1 (Governor's words are denounced by the ACLU), I would expect the news to be all over it had the Governor been Christian opposing a pro-gay agenda, that's really all I'm saying and I'm basing it off the sensationalism of the media when it comes to resistance to the pro-gay agenda.

It's all I'm saying, and correct me if I'm wrong but this far I have little reason to think so.
