Last week gaming convention Gen Con threatened to move future conventions out of Indiana after a controversial "religious freedom bill" passed allowing businesses to deny patrons service based on religious grounds. Worries were strong that it would be used to discriminate against same-sex couples and transgendered folks and what do you know, that's exactly what happened.*
Naturally, this received a ton of backlash with several entertainers, including Parks and Recreation actors Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally, boycotting the state in their tour.
As such, Indiana has amended the law in a clarification bill signed by Indiana governor Mike Pence. Under the new law, businesses won't be able to discriminate against individuals.
