    The market district has me hooked on their grilled chicken and I always spoon out a bunch of grease .. cashier says "what is this?" and I said "Chicken grease".. They always get confused it is soup, broth what.. No just grease.

    Its about a mere three cases, one transgender from a funeral home that should have been a slam dunk in the first place. The other two are about two seperate gay guys that are a little dodgy, Bostock was actually fired after an audit of how he spent county funds, and let me tell you about Zarda:

    "In 2010 Donald Zarda was fired from his skydiving job at Altitude Express. He had told a customer he was gay to make her more comfortable with being strapped together. The woman's boyfriend later complained to the company that she had felt uncomfortable during the experience, and Zarda was fired as a result"

    "The United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York and the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuitruled against Zarda"

    Say you went for a tandem skyjump, instructor told you, dont worry Im gay before strapping you in, how would that make you feel. You dont think thats a little weird?

    And he was initially ruled against by courts in New York, not a bible belt state.

    Unfortunately Zarda died base jumping in Switzerland


    As I said, a mere three cases. Dont disagree with you on Pence being a weirdo. But I think this one is coming from Rep senators in those states that dont have legislation.

    This is one I can see easily backfiring, Trump just lets the media rant for a while, judgement isnt until next year. Then all he has to do is turn around say fake news fake news, the media has been reporting it incorrectly, its just a states issue, has been for the last 45 years, which a lot of the electorate will buy, as they are used to hearing the states vs federal thing.

    Which brings us to the broader question, is the fake news, fake news thing actually going to work. A month before the election next year, he turns around and says, no I never said crazy shit like nuking hurricanes. The media has no video or audio of that of course. He'd be an idiot not to play it that way

    The vast majority of cases never reach the supreme court. So yeah, you'll only have a few. The problem is that it sets judicial precedent.

    The justice department isn't interested in those three cases, it's int rested in the precedent. So when a case reaches the supreme court, it's ruling becomes a precedent. If the supreme court accepted that proposition, states without protections for LGBT workers still could have legal recourse for being fired for being gay, based on the previous interpretation of the Equal Rights Amendment. Once the supreme court rules on it, lower judges have no leeway.

    So yes, while there should be national law protecting LGBT workers, that's often not how our system works. Gay's marriage became legal because of a 5-4 supreme court ruling. Interracial marriage became legal because of a supreme court ruling.

    Texas. Right up there with Liberia and Burma.

    We also all use imperial measurements. Coincidence?

    Gays are part of the military-industrial complex and have deliberately made themselves successful in business, knowing they face stiff opposition, simply due to their sexual orientation. Donald Duck prioritizes his targets, and putting gays low on his list of priorities makes it that much easier to divide and conquer. Never forget, this guy has no real love for even himself.

    The Chick-fil-A moved and was replaced with the taco Bell..

    The Chick-fil-A was blocking traffic too much..

    The taco Bell not so much...

    If I showed you I was just goofy ass location that sits on a hill. The turns are crazy to get in there..stupid place for a fucking restaurant no matter what the name of it is..

    the arby's near here has their order taking box as soon as you pull into the driveway, so the drive through line is literally the car placing an order and one more car, and then anyone after that has to sit in the road and wait.

  19. I like KFC. Their mashed potatoes aren't even that bad, and the biscuits are yummy. I wish one damn restaurant would make really good mashed potatoes, though. It's not that hard, but nobody does it. They're always just tasteless. Does anybody know what I mean?

    Most of the victories for gay rights have been won in the courts. Trump's regressive judicial appointments should take care of those soon--even after he's left office. Saying that conservatives and Republicans aren't hostile to gay rights is simply denying reality.
