Discrimination and Hate Against Gays not a Religious Right

The Issue

A person has the right to worship, but that does not give a license to spread hate combined with discrimination--which can violate other faith systems.

It should be Federal law that any business or organization that denies services or goods based on sexual orientation violates civil rights, and should be viewed as seriously as denying said services or goods based on ethnicity. Gays including married couples and transgendered should be given equal opportunity in all areas. One example is that an Oregon Judge awarded $135,000 to a lesbian couple because the baker refused to bake them a wedding cake with two brides, because it is a State law to discriminate against gays and transgendered. This should be Federal law.

***If this were legal it would give the KKK the right to burn crosses and persecute Blacks because it's their religious belief.***

"Their landlords can evict them (gays).They can also be denied service by hotels, restaurants and other businesses. They can even be denied credit and excluded from juries."  http://money.cnn.com/2015/06/26/news/companies/lgbt-discrimination/

Please protect against sexual discrimination.

Thank you.
