Topic: You See The Political Reason Southern Miss Can't Play Stony Brook In Baseball?

To my way of thinking this "political football" should not affect a three-game college baseball series.

Anti gay , I still don't see where its an anti gay law . I guess its the way its presented to get that segment of the population worked up into a hissy fit.

It makes it legal to deny services based on sexual orientation, doubt services will be denied to heteros , that's why it's anti gay..not sure who you're referring to as having a "hissy fit"

“I just hate losing the three home games,” USM head coach Scott Berry said. “I’m sure it’s going to cost us for sure. That’s three gates and everything that goes into a game day in terms of revenue.”

Because baseball is such windfall for college athletics.

Its denies services to "gay couples" not based on the generality of sexual orientation and that is why it's "anti-gay". And while the term "hissy fit" isn't exactly a PC way to put it, it does happen more often than not instead of just going down the street to another cake shop thats perfectly okay with making a wedding cake for gay couples. Not that I agree with that particular stance but I do think private business should have the right to refuse business from anyone, gay or otherwise that should not be infringed upon because some got their feelings hurt and wanted some money in a lawsuit. Just as ridiculous as the claim some AA circles are making that cops are singling out blacks and shooting them for no reason other than being black. Like they have morning meetings and discuss how many black people they are going to go after for the day.
