Just wondering if anyone has heard anyone pursuing this avenue?

Probably not. Refusing to provide a service for compensation because you disagree with someone’s beliefs or opinions is okay if you’re on “their” side. We all know the opposite doesn’t work too well. On the other hand, NC will NOT be subjected to the no talent libearl POS. They know not, the word hypocrisy.

I thought you were talking about the Cake Boss. That guy loves him some gay marriage, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he refused to ship to NC. That’d be ironic.

Let us have proabort bakers forced to make abortion is murder cakes.

Let us have gay bakers make homosexualiy is sin cakes.

Let us have muslim bakers forced to make Jesus is God cakes.

Let us have the law be forcibly applied to all, equally, if were are going to not allow freedom of asociation.

Otherwise let the 2nd revoltion begin in earnest and we wipe away the current peveted regimes and restore rule of law. They sure as hell will not and theyve had decades of proving they will not.

Actually I was hoping North Carolina would Criminally CHarge him with a Hate Crime as well as Discrimination. They should SUE for Breech of Contract.

Sue on what grounds? Seriously ? A baker was told he could not discriminate on who he provided services to, based on his personal beliefs.

Bruce Springsteen is refusing to provide services to a whole class of people, the citizens of NC, based on his personal beliefs.

If you haven't heard, he's refusing to perform in the state of NC over some bathroom law he doesn't believe in.

He is liberal scum of the highest order. If I hear one of his crappy songs, it goes off.

In N Carolina, a baker can refuse to bake a cake for a gay wedding.

Cakegate hasn’t really hit any serious Federal court review vis a vis 1st amendment freedoms. This wasn’t about supplying generic, or even pre-made cakes. This was about personally inscribing cakes to people. That’s where I would ethically draw the line. If a “gay couple” came to me and wanted to buy a generic or uninscribed cake, I’d tell them that their pretense is foolish, but they are welcome to take the cake and do with it as they wish. But I’d never inscribe, say, “Tom and Mike married today” on it.

This would only apply if he played a concert and excluded certain people from buying tickets. If he gives no concert, then no discrimination. Bakers can do the same.

Why aren’t homosexuals asking Muslim bakers for wedding cakes?

What about Breach of Contract if he committed to playing there?

I think the gays/perverts have a detente with the muslims, that they both go after the Christians first.

Well, as a possible backup plan, the next time the RATs try and tack on a Gay/Lesbian rider to legislation, the GOP ought to add to the rider language that would eliminate tax breaks for any sports league or entertainer that refused to provide services in any state because they don’t like a state law.

I didn't know being a Springsteen fan was a protected class under North Carolina anti-discrimination laws.

I was at the 105th HD bash in 2008 in Milwaukee. His whole concert was an anti Bush speech, over an hour before he even started up playing. Probably a third of the crowd left. Bikers don’t go much for anti-military liberal drivel.

That’s what I’ve been wondering, too. Didn’t he have a contract with the venue he was set to perform in? How can he just say, “I’m not doing the concert after all” with no repercussions?

And back when he first booked the show, men weren’t allowed in women’s restrooms then, either. In fact, most or all of the cities and states he’s ever performed in did not allow men in the women’s rooms. Now all of a sudden it’s a problem.

I guess he also doesn’t care about his fans who were looking forward to the show only to see it canceled.
