Indiana

So is it me or should there be a little more outrage about what happened in Indiana? The public comments from most organizations, SalesForce and the city of San Francisco aside, has been mild at best. Words and phrases like "we may" or "considering" or "might in the future" all seem like weak tea to me. If I'm Pence, mights and maybes don't mean shit to me. They are what they are, political cover. Talking about what you may or may not do 3 or more years from now mean nothing.
DEMAND REAL STATEMENTS ABOUT WHAT THEY PLAN TO DO TODAY.

Frankly even just the threat of pulling them is enough to get people's attention.

But I stand by my point that mights and maybes dont mean shit. Take a stand and "No, we will not be coming to Indiana" and then seek bids from sites in other states. Anything less is is just playing politics and CYA.
