  1. Enough throwing our tax dollars away. In fact, pull all funding for the “Human rights commision”. Isn’t that NAACP redundant?? What a joke and the chin scratchers under the golden dome will think it’s a great idea.

  2. Our civil and criminal courts are supposed to be the government system that steps in when people treat each other unfairly. The human rights commission has always been a redundant and BIASED way of dealing with thorny issues of human relations, putting people with a social worker and activist mentality in place where there should be a judge or jury. Years ago they ruled against a family who owned an inn who hosted weddings, who because of their deep Catholic faith declined to host and PARTICIPATE IN a same-sex wedding and were found liable by the HRC. Subsequent court rulings in other jurisdictions such as with the Colorado cake baker sided with First Amendment religious protections. The HRC decision in that case was flawed since it determined that the discrimination was based on orientation. The discrimination was based on the EVENT and being forced to participate in it, NOT on the individual’s sexual orientation. DEFUND this travesty.

  4. The answer for failure in most progressive societies is, “Give us more money.” That doesn’t work too well.

  5. Ironic a construction company has deplorable housing for the guys that build housing. I wonder what their projects look like.
