    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.

    I feel this business was targeted. The same thing happened in denver 10-15 years ago with the ADA. Alleged disabled people would target restaurants saying they did not have good enough access for wheel chairs, restrooms not up to snuff etc. Even though the city signed off on their remodels. What happened? Frivolous lawsuits the business paid rather than drag it out in court. The Rev jackson's rainbow coalition does the same thing only on a larger scale. Just wait the storm front hasn't hit land yet.

    The way I see it, he didn't refuse service based on their sexual orientation, just based on the request (he did say he WOULD make them a cake for birthdays, etc... just not for a gay wedding)

    He could even argue that a gay wedding is not legal in Colorado, so he does not want to participate in an event that could be considered illegal.

    but I like the "I refused based on them being immature assholes" argument, too.

    ETA: the "pair" of customers has the right to call for a boycott, too... I don't deny them that right. The also have the right to go pout and whine about it, too.
