They showed up in their finest work attire, which took, likely, 3 or more hours to put on.
You know nothing of respect.

No you should never show up looking like a clown for government functions, acting like one is standard practice for republicans though.

I don't really think it would make a bit of difference if they showed up in the finest suit and tie ever made. You can't sweet talk a bigot by dressing nice and presenting a logical case against their illogical beliefs. FWIW I'm not saying all republicans are bigots or anything, but the ones behind this bill definitely are. I grew up in an extremely rural area and have been around these types of people all my life, hell there are several of them in my family unfortunately. Most of them need no other motivation than "gays make me feel yucky" to start calling for bans and worse. From my perspective, it wouldn't matter if Jesus himself showed up in a gleaming suit of gold and testified against this bill. It wouldn't change the minds of the people trying to pass it.
Edit: spelling
the law should not be applied by how people look. If they treat the law like that, it will get repealed. So actually in the long term it might be better to psychologically push them into making a mistake.
