We got our wedding cakes from them. We also buy a few other various cakes from them through out the year. They will continue to get our business.
Curious how you see that this violates the First Amendment.Originally Posted by Byte Stryke
Newracer you are just quoted to get the Statue and this rant is not directed at you.
I'd like to see this one go to court and maybe we'll get an opportunity to modify a law that purchases "rights" for "protected groups" at the cost of another's innate rights. I can't make a cake out of a box mix but if I did by God I'd sell it or not sell it to whoever I choose.
Their "right" to purchase a widely available product from one particular location that clearly does not want their business is not a right at all and should be afforded no protection that restricts the rights of another to conduct business as they see fit. How is this a bit different than businesses that restrict concealed carry? They have the right, it is their business after all and I have the right to patronize their competition.
I discriminate against thugs, gang-bangers and punks, I won't sell them a damn thing. Folks are free to practice pretty much any deviant or anti-social lifestyle they choose but I don't agree they are all good for our society and I don't have to support them in any fashion despite some touchy-feely-everybody-is-pretty law to contrary.

Since when is it a civil right to make someone bake you a cake? Unless it's your wife...
Whatever happen to the right to refuse service to anyone?
This

You still can as long as it is not based on disability, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, or ancestry.
I never understood this. If a person doesn't want to serve "your kind", why would you want to give them your business? I would rather know up front what kinds of people a person doesnt want to serve, and make my business decisions accordingly. And if a business owner feels like limiting their potential client base, that's their decision.
If that man's religion says he is to have no part in homo weddings, then the government cannot force him.
Just as the Catholics don't have to provide control as Obamacare says.
He did not refuse service to them based on their sexual orientation, he refused service to a ceremony that dies not exist in his religion.
