But, they committed a sin, by stating that they support thousands of employees and millions of guests, and worst of all they did it publicly.

So much for fee speech.

I hope they don’t move out of the state, I kind of like not paying state income tax.
BS

Let's be honest here.

They were not "supporting thousands of employees and millions of guests" They were making a political statement and cow-towing to a very small minority of ________(fill in the blank) that were opposed to a law that prohibited teaching CHILDREN in K-3 (5-8 year olds) about certain sexual behaviors. Of course, those that engage in those behaviors want them to be accepted as normal even by 5 year olds.

So like the spokesperson for the governor's office stated this morning--"If you poke the hornet's nest. sometimes you get stung"
