If only they'd sold it as "workplace violence protection act"

and spun it as allowing discrimination against legal concealed carry permit holders, and introduced by someone with a (D) in their title. Then it would have been the Greatest Legislation Evar and anyone pointing out that it could be misused to discriminate against SSM couples would have been told they're "paranoid" and been bullied to silence.

Even if the exact same legislative wording was used, the Internet Outrage Hype Machine would have been mum.
