[Vision2020] Prediction/pin drop

[Paul Rumelhart]

I believe I mentioned that people have the right to do business with 
whom they wish.  I'm not calling the authorities on these people.  I'm 
merely explaining how I hate this kind of thing.  Of course people are 
free to target a religious group with their boycott merely because they 
disagree with them.  And I'm free to stand up and tell them how bigoted 
they are being.

Yes, freedom is great.

What's next?  Women-owned businesses?  Businesses owned by the disabled? 

The ironic thing is that their fight is not with these people.  In their 
world view, they are some of the masses that have been deluded by those 
in power in that church.  So why hurt them specifically with this boycot?

Paul

Why do people I normally respect cloud their thinking so much on this 
one issue?
