GOP shows true colors

First of all, I want to thank Indiana’s Republican Gov. Mike Pence, and possibly the majority of Republicans, for showing what they really stand for cloaked in the flowery rhetoric of the religious freedom bill.

In my opinion, they are the epitome of bigotry, misogyny, discrimination and racism. For me, the Republicans represent a party of narrow-minded, self-serving, arrogant, constantly fault-finding and blaming individuals. How can anyone with two brain cells to rub together want to be a member of that party?

I want to express my ultimate thanks to Walmart, and all the other companies who came forward and spoke out against Indiana’s law. It’s about time. Bravo for speaking up. I commend you.
