The Great Gay Wedding Pizza Controversy:Update

You gotta wonder just how petty and absurd things are going to get over this whole Indiana RFRA law.
I get the feeling that ABC sent out a email to all of its Indiana affiliates demanding that they find some example of a business who not only approved of the law but makes clear that their religious conscience would keep them from serving a "gay" wedding.
Well ABC57 found one in a small town.

RFRA: Michiana business wouldn't cater a gay wedding
WALKERTON, Ind. - A small-town pizza shop is saying they agree with Governor Pence and the signing of the controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
The O'Connor family, who owns Memories Pizza, says they have a right to believe in their religion and protect those ideals.
“If a gay couple came in and wanted us to provide pizzas for their wedding, we would have to say no,” says Crystal O'Connor of Memories Pizza.
She and her family are standing firm in their beliefs.
The O'Connors have owned Memories Pizza in Walkerton for 9 years.
It's a small-town business, with small-town ideals.
“We are a Christian establishment,” says O'Connor.
The O'Connor family prides themselves in owning a business that reflects their religious beliefs.
“We're not discriminating against anyone, that's just our belief and anyone has the right to believe in anything,” says O'Connor.  
So, when Governor Pence signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act into law, the family was not disappointed.
“We definitely agree with the bill,” says O'Connor.

Pizza?
Who in the hell has catered pizza at a wedding reception?
As always the leftist media is making much ado about nothing in order to advance an agenda,making news instead of reporting it.
Makes you wonder how hard they had to look in the entire state to find this one little business in this one little town to get this "story".

Ah here you go.
Forced to close because they hypothetically refused to cater a hypothetical reception for a hypothetical "gay" wedding.

From the Left-Wing theater of the Absurd

Left-wing loons shamelessly pandering to an incredibly small percentage of the population, this is beyond stupid.

School Told to Call Kids ‘Purple Penguins’ Because ‘Boys and Girls’ Is Not Inclusive to Transgender
A Nebraska school district has instructed its teachers to stop referring to students by “gendered expressions” such as “boys and girls,” and use “gender inclusive” ones such as “purple penguins” instead.
“Don’t use phrases such as ‘boys and girls,’ ‘you guys,’ ‘ladies and gentlemen,’ and similarly gendered expressions to get kids’ attention,” instructs a training document given to middle-school teachers at the Lincoln Public Schools.
“Create classroom names and then ask all of the ‘purple penguins’ to meet on the rug,” it advises.
The document also warns against asking students to “line up as boys or girls,” and suggests asking them to line up by whether they prefer “skateboards or bikes/milk or juice/dogs or cats/summer or winter/talking or listening.”
“Always ask yourself . . . ‘Will this configuration create a gendered space?’” the document says.~snip~
And as always the superintendent pompously sits there and tells parents basically,"who cares what you think?" and then tries to claim they don't get involved in politics or gender.Like denying it makes it rue.
You know it's way past time to demand that schools simply get back to teaching reading,writing and math. It hasn't happened in so long I don't think they know how any more.
The only answer is to wrest control of schools away from the federal government, who are joined at the hip with teachers unions and the democrat party, and giving control back to the local school districts.
Until then the none stop indoctrination of our children will continue.
