LOL! When I see that designation, I assume A NEVER TRUMPER STRIKES AGAIN! I’ll have to be careful in future.

This is the beginning of the end of accommodation laws. There usefulness, if there ever was any, is over. The internet and social media have made such laws obsolete. Such laws are only abused to overthrow other civil rights in the modern era.

One of us is misunderstanding the other. I don’t know which it is.

I completely understand. For the record, ‘jk’ means, ‘just kidding.’ A very useful designation.

There are people who will forgive Trump for supporting an elimination of the debt ceiling and the legalization of illegals...because his DOJ is supporting this baker.

Trump has learned very, very quickly from the GOPe just how dumb Republican voters are.

I’m sure any Muslim bakery would be happy to bake a cake for them.

What do you mean "would"? Don't they "have" to if asked? Or is there selective shakedowns going on?

“forget he’s on our side on the culture wars, on tax cuts and on America being a country”

Is that why he’s a DACA supporter, even alluding to future executive action if the Congress fails?

Is that why he ceded leverage on tax cuts?

This Trump supporter is completely dismayed. Trump is making some decisions that do not comport with his previous rhetoric.

I am saying that the Christian promotion of chastity (which successfully denies homosexuals many sexual conquests) has far more to do with homosexual hatred of Christians than any feeling condemned by Christians.

And I am saying that when they are in groups of like kind they tend to harp about chaste people bitterly. Like the tribe of Benjamin, they deem being denied sexual gratification a great offense.

Thank you for referencing that article reaganaut1. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Patriots, noting that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called LGBT rights like Founding States did with the rights expressly protected by the Bill of Rights and other constitutionally enumerated protections, LGBT “rights” wrongly being legislated from the bench by pro-LGBT activist judges imo, please consider the following question.

What’s worse, misguided, low-information, pro-LGBT state officials who violate Section 1 of the 14th Amendment (14A) by using politically correct, constitutionally unprotected LGBT “rights” to trump enumerated rights like 1st Amendment protected religious expression and free speech rights?

”14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

Or is it worse that the referenced Colorado baker has probably never been taught about 14A, and consequently cannot use it to defend himself from the unconstitutional abridgment of his enumerated rights by the state?

In fact, patriots who value their constitutionally enumerated protections should note that Acts 22:25-29 indicates that Paul claimed his protections as a Roman citizen to save himself from being flogged.

And what’s arguably worse than the states violating 14A, and citizens who have never been taught their constitutional protections, is this imo. Although Congress has the 14A power to make laws to strengthen citizens’ rights against abridgment by the states, during the lawless Obama Administration the worthless, RINO-controlled, pro-LGBT Congress wrongly remained silent while misguided, pro-LGBT states unconstitutionally punished citizens for expressing their faith.

Next, consider that although Trump is accomplishing a LOT as president, it remains that since the uniparty Congress that lets states get away with abridging constitutionally enumerated rights wants to get rid of him, his first two years in office are arguably for practice.

That being said ...

Drain the swamp sewer! Drain the sewer!

Remember in November 2018 !

Since corrupt Congress is the biggest part of the sewer (imo) that Trump wants to drain, it is actually up to patriots to drain the sewer in the 2018 elections, patriots supporting Trump by electing as many new members of Congress as they can who will support Trump.

In the meanwhile, patriots need to make sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting candidates on the primary ballots.

Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.

Patriots also need to make sure that candidates are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed here.

Also, candidates need to commit to making and enforcing 14th Amendment-related laws to prosecute misguided state officials who use state powers to abridge constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech for example, such actions prohibited by Section 1 of the 14A shown above.

Again, drain the sewer! Drain the sewer!

If a pervert baker refuses to bake a cake for my normal wedding that's entirely cool.The reverse is equally cool.

You shouldn't be allowed to deny anyone medical care,an ambulance ride and certain other essentials.OTOH a wedding cake isn't within 100 miles of essential.

Ask any liberal if it’s OK for a fashion designer to decline to design a dress for Mrs. Trump. No doubt, they’ll say that’s fine.

Then ask them if it’s OK for a baker to decline business from a pervert. Let the fun begin!

someone who will bake a cake for their “weddings”. They should not bully people who do not want to get involved.””

That thinking is not part of being a queer. Queers are all about being in your face with their mental disorder—it’s part of what makes them revolting to normal people.
