    Only a single person spoke in favor of the bill. Matt Sharp, from the Alliance Defending Freedom, did so virtually from out of state.

    Any group with “Freedom” in the name is pretty much guaranteed to be against actual freedom. Same with Liberty.

      At this point they’ve become euphemisms for Orwellian.
