The [contrary] interpretation of the fairness ordinance would allow any individual to claim any variety of protected class discrimination under the guise of the fairness ordinance merely by requesting a t-shirt espousing support for a protected class and then receiving a value-based refusal."

Yes and that's exactly what's been happening.

The opinion is unpblished and is of limited precedential value.

It should be used each and every time and built upon. This hooey has got to stop.

You don’t have to provide material support for any political activism.

Good outcome, but good news is dependent on the reasoning.

Wrong reasoning used can be an outrage even if HOO wins.

Unfortunately, this case will stand until a federal court unconstitutionally gets their hand on it.

Trump needs to make these 100’s of federal bench appointments, stat!!!

That’s okay. I’m sure the GLSO can always go to a Muslim owned shop and get their T-shirts printed there.

Were this my business I would merely state that “we can’t fulfill your order at this time because we don’t have the capacity to do so.” Avoid the expense of the lawsuit with the truth phrased such that its completely ambiguous what the word capacity means in this case. Saying you can’t do something because of your convictions is admirable but the legal expense involved in doing so can completely destroy your business - which is ultimately counter-productive.

Take your fagdom some place else. An islamist shop would happily comply, I’m sure.

If your artistic ability or talents would be protected First Amendment free expression....then your choice NOT to use that artistic ability and talent is likewise protected.

A painting is the perfect analogy. Under what possible circumstance could the government force you to create a painting.

If it’s true of a painting it should be true of graphic design, crafts,....ice sculpture....(insert here).

“You have the right to remain silent” => This ultimate expression...you have the right NOT to express yourself even if compelled to do so.
