On the radio program of Family Research Council's head Tony Perkins (no slouch in lying about lgbt employment protections himself), King said if gays weren't so open about their sexual orientation, they wouldn't be discriminated against:
Perkins expressed fear that "someone could come in dressed one day as a woman or a man, the next day they come in dressed as the opposite sex" and an employer would be "helpless to do anything about it."
King agreed, saying the legislation opens the door to Christian businesses getting entrapped by the "homosexual activist lobby."
While they reserve the right to keep their personal society and business as they like it, we shouldn't necessarily have to do business or seek socialization exclusively with people like these, and for the most part, we don't. No amount of political or legal action will make our society more free. Rather, it will require individuals to act in ways both creative and industrious to improve their standard of living, while excluding people such as these, and their ideas and business, which might impede it.
