She claims that denying service to homosexuals is no different from denying service to blacks. That's arguable, but Jack Phillips never denied homosexuals the right to shop at his bakery or buy his products. He simply refused to custom-decorate a cake in celebration of a homosexual "wedding." That's quite different from not allowing a paying customer into a store to buy a product (or the use of a bathroom).
She then shrieks in outrage that someone might equate forcing a Christian to publically celebrate a homosexual "wedding" with forcing Jews to make cakes with swastikas. Has it ever occurred to her that Mr. Phillips has exactly the same right to take offense at homosexual "weddings" (or anything else he see fit to) as she has the right to be offended by swastikas (or anything else she sees fit to)? Of course not. With the politically correct, it's always the totalitarian attitude of "my values trump your values, so accept me prejudices or I'll call you a bigot!"
Israel will be 50% Orthodox by 2030. The Backward will either go out of business, or they’ll hire Orthodox reporters.
