Not even those who claim to love liberty the most are standing by religious freedom today.

In a recent interview with the Washington Examiner’s Tim Carney, Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson derided federal laws protecting religious freedom, saying that it is the federal government’s job to prevent discrimination.

When asked if groups that have moral and religious reservations about participating in same-sex wedding ceremonies could be exempted from anti-discrimination laws, Johnson quickly answered in the negative.

“Look. Here’s the issue. You’ve narrowly defined this. But if we allow for discrimination — if we pass a law that allows for discrimination on the basis of religion — literally, we’re gonna open up a can of worms when it come stop discrimination of all forms ,” the Libertarian said. “The problem is I don’t think you can cut out a little chunk there. I think what you’re going to end up doing is open up a plethora of discrimination that you never believed could exist.”
