Michigan House passes bill legalizing religious discrimination

But guys, the gays can just call a different ambulance if the one they get is too homophobic. It's the magic of the free market!

Hospitals don't allow ambulance workers to decide things like that based on their personal beliefs. Would this bill prevent hospitals from firing workers who refused to serve gays? If so, the bill itself is a restriction on the free market.

As you indicated in your original post, specific performance is just a type of remedy, not a cause of action. Its availability or unavailability in specific types of lawsuits has nothing to do with this Michigan bill. The bill would  prevent gay couples from bringing discrimination-related suits seeking monetary damages or any other type of relief.

What monetary damages exist, other than someone wishing to impose punitive measures? If someone causes actually monetary damages, it will be related to another contractual/criminal concept, not anti-discrimination.

The only thing this bill does is stop the judiciary from improperly enslaving citizens for political gain or under political duress. Specific-performance made sense during the civil rights movement to eliminate segregation. There is no segregation of homosexuals, and specific performance is not a proper remedy in most instances.

Everyone wins when the legislature restricts the judiciary's powers of specific performance.

The only ones that win when you legally allow discrimination are bigots.

I suppose you also believe that the only ones that win when you legally allow bigoted speech are bigots?
