Andrew. you are on the right tract — if one studies Dean smith proposal it is clear that they wanted to force acceptance on all sections of society.

Would that mean that the religious zealots and extremists can be held accountable for discriminatory action such as non service to gays?

Andrew Bolt is a moron. On any given issue, he forms a very predictable far-right view then inserts the old buzz words about the topic in an effort to be controversial.

But in so many cases he presumes with zero evidence that looking out for the human or civil rights of one group is somehow impinging on the rights of everyone else. It’s his basic error on this issue today.

Ordinary folks will never notice the LGBTI commissioner because they don’t do homophobic things. Bolt will do homophobic things so he can then whinge about being on the LGBTI commissioner’s radar. It’s like his section 18C conviction, when he wrote a column asserting specific allegations against specific people so that he could not use the usual 18D ‘fair comment’ defence, then when he got (predictably) convicted in court he used that to convince the Liberal Party to drop section 18C altogether.

Screwing him over on that deal was something Tony Abbott did which I actually cheered. Hilarious.
