Decline service vs. decline to create messages
editA phrase in the lede paragraph that once read "permitting business to decline service to LGBT customers" was changed to read "permitting business owners to decline to create messages or participate in events they disagree with including same-sex weddings". In my view, both of these statements are factual. I made an attempt to synthesize them. This attempt has been rolled back a couple of times. I'd like to open up a discussion with Beckyblake33, and anyone else interested, about the most accurate wording here.
Thanks, Jno.skinner (talk) 23:24, 22 October 2019(UTC)
- Seeing no comments on this, I've used the phrase "permitting businesses to decline serving LGBT customers" which is taken directly from a source, which I've added a citation to. I am still open to talking about the best phrasing. Jno.skinner (talk) 21:25, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
Hey, Jno.skinner I know we've gone back and forth on this several times, but I've looked and I really can't find anywhere on the NFA website where they've advocated for declining service to LGBT customers, so it's not an accurate statement to include in the organization's summary. Unless you can find it somewhere? Beckyblake33 (talk) 20:23, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response Beckyblake33! You raise a good point that the source's claim says it is based on the NFA website, and if the website does not contain that information, then the claim fails verification. While it does appear NFA has lobbied to allow business to continue decline service to LGBT customers, a new independent source would be needed to support the claim. Sorry for taking our your good-faith edit; I now understand your reasons better.
- You have also removed the claims that "NFA policies include permitting displays of religious affiliation in public schools, opposition to no-fault divorce and LGBT employment protections." Do you have some objection to the sources of these claims? Jno.skinner (talk) 03:38, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
Hello Jno.skinner, I didn't remove LGBT employment protections. It's in the third paragraph. I couldn't find a source for your claim that the NFA opposes no-fault divorce. Please add it back in if you can find one. Finally, I'm not convinced that the NFA advocates for religious affiliation in public schools. They were silent about Erdman's LB73 in 2019 and LB36 in 2021. I don't think you can list it as a policy agenda if they're not testifying on legislation that permits displays of religious affiliation in public schools.
