snipp.... I do think that the fact that nobody credible has even tried to reverse anti-discrimination laws is evidence of the difficulty. snipp...
But attacking anti-discrimination laws? Consider the company one would have to keep in such an endeavor.
snipp...
If the religious right in this nation cannot stem the tide of forcing bakers and photographers to participate in homosexual events--and all evidence is in half the States they can't--then I just don't see how we can reasonable expect to roll back existing anti-discrimination or ADA protections. That isn't to say something unforeseeable can't happen in the future that changes this. But for now, it looks to me to be unforeseeable.

corporations, government officials, universities and prominent newsmakers have come out staunchly against the measure.
More than 100 top executives from major companies, including major Charlotte employers like Bank of America, have signed a letter opposing the “anti-LGBT” legislation. The NBA, set to host its All-Star Game in Charlotte next year, has also said it’s against measure. Some
states and cities are banning government-funded travel to North Carolina.

i'm sorry mate you were saying anti discrimination can't be overturned...of course it can be done as you are watching it unfold before your eyes ~
this is after only been two weeks since the idiot savant signed the legislation and the great citizens of this country are screaming bloody h3ll about it and with what the governor and legislation understands ~ loss of tourist dollars and other revenue...
interestingly as there are yet another 40+ names on the cite of cities, universities, and private individuals who i didn't take the time to extract...
if the cause is just, the american people across the country will rise up and speak out...
but yet the small minded grassroots firearm entities just keep their egos engaged pushing their own agenda within their little fiefdoms and you get OC w/permits or nothing like FL.
to assure equal time...yes there are those who are encouraging the governor he did the right thing but i believe you will discern the $$$$$ being taken away speaks the loudest...
ipse
to prove the $$$$ wins...the GA governor changed his mind on signing his approval on a similar legislation.
