Columbian editorial writers
For three consecutive years the Washington state House has approved by wide margins a bill that would ban discrimination based on sexual orientation in matters of housing, employment and financial transactions.
The idiocy of this position is blatant: where other classifications are obvious, such as race or gender, the issue of homosexuality, which has no more place in the public mainstream discussion as a basis for classification then does the issue of heterosexuality, is no more worthy of protection then the issue of height or hair color.
Where does it stop? Is this a matter of public conduct.... or private conduct? Does this enable anyone to engage in any public activity anywhere without fear of career accountability?
The next time you hear a democrat sniveling about how The Columbian is "too far right," remember this little vignette.
