Americans continue to lose more liberties every day right under their nose. In particular, American business owners are gradually losing more and more of their rights to do business the way the say fit. The latest blow comes from New Jersey, where Attorney General Anne Milgram has forced eHarmony to offer dating service to gays and lesbians even though this is not the company’s forte. Milgrram apparently sees a civil right that does not exist, essentially making the case that businesses can not tailor their market to a particular demographic.

From Stan Gendlin (Conservatives with Attitude!):

Anne Milgram, New Jersey’s 57th Attorney General, has decided it is the states responsibility to dictate business models. Milgram has intervened in a lawsuit of a homosexual man suing eHarmony, an online dating site whose match making ability is based on 30 compatibility questions created from research about heterosexual couples, and is forcing eHarmony to offer same sex match making on their website.

When did the state receive the authority to regulate internal business decisions of private companies? How is this legal? Is there discrimination because eHarmony focused their years of research on heterosexual couples and made a business model off of this? I think not, heterosexual couples make up the large majority of couples in this country and thus are a more profitable market.

According to Milgram, this is a civil rights issue! Does that mean she can force restaurants to offer vegetarian meals or vice versa? Can she force Adult Communities to take in younger people? Can she force a Hollywood action studio to start making homosexual comedies? This is absurd.

If you Google homosexual dating, you get a thousand different ways to connect with other single gays. eHarmony, on the other hand is a Christian targeted and promoted dating service. Like I said previously all these lawsuits and legislative pushes are to spit in the face of Christianity, this is not about equality.

Tens of millions were spent by homosexuals over semantics in California, where they have ALL the same rights as heterosexuals through civil-unions.

New Jersey needs an immediate change in direction, I hope the GOP fields someone this year to take us there.

The Founding Fathers never had any intention, nor desire, to see our government intervene in the affairs of men in such ways. We have a court system that is out of control thanks to people like Milgram, as well as judges who ignore the Constitution and precedent and make law from the bench. It’s time we all stand up and take it back by, as Stan says, changing direction and electing people to office who actually respect the Constitution.
