He and others like him will continue to be targeted. It’s high time he moved out of CO. It’s become a liberal cesspool like CA.

I believe that’s already been tried and the response was, “We reserve the right to refuse service for any reason”, which was accepted.

The left is immune to such a tactic.

“Correct. So why haven’t conservatives done the same .... targeted a woke bakery and demanded a MAGA, white pride, or all lives matter cake?

Why?”

Why haven’t you?

I believe the scam has a name: ‘Crazy money’. Kid gets disability checks from Social Security until age 18. Doesn’t have to be autism, any kind of crazy will do the trick. Kid is totally out of control in school, gets diagnosed, ka-ching!

These MFs will keep targeting this bakery until they drive him out of business as a “message” to anyone who defies the agenda.

He said requiring Phillips to create a cake with a message contrary to his religious beliefs amounts to forcing him to say something he does not believe, violating his right to free speech.

At a more fundamental level, these cakes represent artistic expression, and forcing someone to make a cake is forcing someone to say something or express something they don’t believe. The freedom of speech is includes the freedom from compelled speech.

Technically, transgender people don’t even exist. They just take hormones and mutilate their privates to fulfill their delusions.

This is clearly not one of their “standard” cakes. It’s a “special order”. I would say of course...and charge them up the Wazzoo. Then explain that all special orders are individually priced to insure a generous profit margin because it requires time away from normal activities.

AKA crazy checks. As in my keed gets $800 a month. And more than one crazy keed, then mama is eating lobster and steaks with her boyfriend twice a week.

Charge them up the wazoo, with payment in advance for all complicated cakes. The gays and trans-loons will take a hike. And look for someone else’s bakery to victimize for a payday.

It’s the gay-trans version of the ghetto lottery

The fight seems to be over the custom decoration.

Why not just bake beautiful, generic cake designs and hand the customers a bag of plastic letters to write whatever message they want after they get home?

“We don’t do custom decorating” seems to cut off the entire debate.

Not the same.

Correct. It’s just lipstick on a pig. Or surgical and chemical self mutilation. You are still, and always will be, what you were when born.

This is just insanity and is celebrated purely because it is against Christianity. It is demonic.

The other reason is that it is viewed as a HUGE growth industry for the medical industry. It’s all pure evil.

That’s always been my contention, too. Religion has nothing to do with it. There is male and female and you can’t change your DNA. I’s simple science. Why should I be FORCED to participate in your “so called transition”. Take your business elsewhere.

To: RandFan; All
Thank you for referencing that article RandFan.

The referenced election year article doesn't mention 14th Amendment (14A) protections, correction welcome, from state abridgment of constitutionally enumerated personal rights.

The article didn't mention 14A because its author is probably aware (clueless?) that the very corrupt, alleged election-stealing Democratic and RINO controlled Congress is stubbornly refusing to do its constitutional duty to make laws that discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, freedoms of religious expression and speech in this example.

In other words, it's actually up to Trump's red tsunami of patriot supports to rescue Jack Phillips from corrupt federal and state governments by electing Trump-endorsed MAGA candidates to federal and state offices in November who will help to support federal bills that strengthen constitutionally enumerated rights, and kill state bills that weaken such rights.

Insights welcome.
