Devin Harris has also said that the Mavericks, including owner Mark Cuban, have been very supportive.

According to CBN News, Texas lawmakers saw a need for the bill after a same-sex couple in Michigan sued the state because two Christian adoption agencies denied them opportunities to adopt children.

“I really have not faced any discrimination over being gay so calling the agencies and being told that it’s our policy not to place kids with same-sex families was pretty hard to hear,” said Kristy Dumont, one of the plaintiffs.

In Zanwrua village, 62-year-old Agado Aura recounted how he and his wife narrowly escaped death.

 

“Myself and my wife were still sitting in front of my house chatting at about 11 p.m. in front of my house when the attackers came,” Aura, a member of St. Peter’s Catholic Church in Tafigana but a resident of Zanwrua, told Morning Star News. “We could not go to bed early, because the previous night a village near ours, Tafigana, was attacked by the herdsmen. Suddenly, we heard gunshots from the eastern part of the village. We ran into some of the nearby rocks close to my house and hid…
