>>No, his appointments aren't in line with what he said. They're more in line with Pence's extreme right-wing agenda.

If what you fear turns out to be true, I think people like MA and KG and BF will be on your side. But for now, clearly burning and protesting hasn't achieved anything and nor will the Wisconsin recount achieve anything except putting those good people to considerable inconvenience, so there's no choice but to wait and see. Those who plan to squall incessantly should expect the door to be closed on their racket. Wouldn't you do that?

>>I'm talking about basic civil rights, like not being fired from your job for being gay; like being able to visit your spouse in the hospital and having control over what happens if your spouse can't make those decisions; like being considered the parent of your child. The people Trump is appointing oppose all that.

I have a question for you: if a Catholic doctor declines on religious grounds to participate in anything to do with abortion, are they haters of women or discriminating against the rights of others? Should the state be empowered to force their participation?

What about an order of Nuns that objects on religious grounds to a healthcare plan that includes contraceptives? Should they be forced to comply?

What about a small Muslim bakery that doesn't want to cater for a gay event, quoting passages like Hadith 38:4447 when challenged? Should they be called hateful with the state empowered to force the bigots to comply?
