    So, a couple of years ago I wanted to get the grips of my Colt personalized with a Pentagram...
    I started contacting different businesses and a couple of them told me flat out that they did not feel comfortable with that design.
    Fair enough.
    So, I moved on to the next, until I found somebody that would.
    THE END

    This. TheGrey stated this even better than I attempted. (Is there no way on here to "Like" or "Atta Boy" someone's post? Asking for a friend....)

    You are clearly missing the point- baking cakes is WHAT HE DOES. It is his form of advertising his business, which is to say that he supports whatever ceebration the baked goods was created for. He's not Walmart; he's an artist.

    The two went past several bakeries to target this bakery. If it was just a cake, why didnt they get one from somewhere else?

    And as far as "religious BS"....I suggest you take a long look at the history of this country and its Constitutional foundations, Ms. Planning-to-be-a Lawyer. Start with religious freedoms. Your dismissiveness of a person's belief- while DEMANDING that everyone not challenge your particular beliefs- is quite telling.

    Well summarized.

    It's a one time ruling based on state law as it existed at the time

    It was / is a case where the "couple" shopped for a baker they could challenge.

    It was also a decision based on the CO Civil rights commission's blatant discriminatory actions towards the baker.

    This that not-so-subtle Fascism that everyone, Liberals especially, should be opposing. Even the ACLU signed on to Fascism in this case. It would seem there really are no boundaries to even the stated Liberal principals that Libs are willing to violate to destroy their enemies--us.

    It's the stuff of much nastiness because when they don't even follow their own rules, the hypocrites can't be reasoned with to allow any other outcome other than violence. It is simply might makes right on a societal level that is begging for escalation.

    It is obvious Libs are creating super-citizens and artificial rights that are superior (only in their minds) to Constitutionally protected natural rights. And using the jackboot of gov to do it. Imagine a 60s flowerchild's reaction to all of this!

    I should also not expect an Islamic bakery to make me a cake with decoration depicting a US Soldier taking a shit in Mohammed's mouth. Nor a cake that says, "Happy 3rd Anniversary/9th birthday Aisha!"

    No, I havent. For two reasons:

    1) I'm not a fan of cake.
    2) If Halal baking is as clean as Halal butchers, there's not enough cipro in the world to make the resultant illness cease.

    Not really. CRS 24-34-601 simply states that a business may not discriminate due to the usual protected classes.
    It says nothing about selective service.

    Example- a business may select that they will not make a sale to anyone in a green shirt. Stupid? Yes, but not unlawful as long as they are not doing so because of "protected class" status.

    BP already touched on this, but that statute doesn't say you can't refuse business to someone because you think they are an asshole.
