So she was fine selling flowers for 9 years to him when she knew he was ghey?? Hmmm

What’s the problem with that.

It is possible that the fag was buying flowers for his mother’s birthday, or a sick friend, or something similar.

She didn’t refuse to sell flowers to him because he was gay. She refused to have one of her arrangements be a part of a gay wedding. She doesn’t hate the person, but she refuses to endorse the perverted ceremony.

There's no “hmm”.
Flowers on display in the window or coolers are offered for public consumption. Floral arrangements for a wedding require a private contract of services for a private function. That is a participation in that private function.

Forcing someone to serve in a private capacity is slavery.

If you’re gay and you want to buy one of my Christian-themed quilts I will sell it to you.

If you want me to make you a Rainbow Flag quilt then I won’t.

See how that works?

She can’t refuse to sell him flowers, and besides she was dealing with an individual. When it came to being a part of his wedding, that was her line.

Stutzman said she “draws a distinction between creating floral arrangements — even those designed by someone else — and selling bulk flowers and ‘raw materials,’ which she would be happy to do for Ingersoll and Freed.” But she said she believes that “to create floral arrangements is to use her ‘imagination and artistic skill to intimately participate in a same-sex wedding ceremony.’”

This is the unfairness of modern civil rights legislation. If someone in a protected class requests a service, no matter what, you aren’t allowed to refuse.
The Colorado Civil Rights Commission in the same week said Masterpiece Bakery had to make the homosexual wedding cake, because homosexuals are protected per civil rights legislation, but homosexual businesses could refuse jobs for Christian traditional marriage groups because that was their First Amendment right.
