HRC At Work Again

Filed under: BS Patrol |

Unfortunately, I’m not referring to Shrillary here…
This time in New Mexico: I swear, any time I hear the words “Human Rights Commission” I equate that to the Spanish Inquisition. Convert or we’ll kill your means to make a living:

An evangelical Christian photographer was brought before the New Mexico Human Rights Commission after she declined for religious reasons to photograph a same-sex commitment ceremony.
When Elaine Huguenin of Albuquerque, N.M., declined in September 2006 an e-mail request from a lesbian couple to photograph their ceremony, one of the lesbians responded by lodging a human rights complaint with the New Mexico Human Rights Division, the state agency charged with enforcing state anti-discrimination laws and sending cases to the commission to be adjudicated.

If a lesbian couple wants to have someone photograph their ceremony, why couldn’t they just go to another photographer who would have no problem with it? Oh NOOOOOO, that’s only common sense, and you simply can’t have that in any way, shape, or form these days.
