    HR 1592 includes overreaching language that will result in absurdities in enforcement. Must a business owner be forced to hire and retain an employee whose appearance or behavior drives away customers? This bill represents a “trojan horse” tactic by radical elements that will inevitably result in unjust application of legal enforcement mechanisms. It must not pass.

    Wow, Feb 19th. You really are stupid. This is a hate crime bill and has to do with bodily harm done to another person, not a who-you-can-and-cannot-hire bill. What the hell does it have to do with hiring and retaining an employee? Nothing, you moron.
