I thought that too.
Just make ugly cakes for gay marraiges. But someone does to make a stand good on him for doing it.
Whooee!
I like that!

“Find a gay owned flower shop, for instance and order Nazi and KKK themed floral displays. Let’s see whether or not they enforce the law in this case.”
It wouldn’t accomplish anything, because the KKK and Nazis are not “protected classes” under the statutes. You can refuse service to them all day long and nothing will happen.
You must be young
I admire your defiance but that logic invites more problems
I just had a great idea. If I had been ordered by the gov. to make a homo cake. I would have done it and then placed two weiners (hot dogs) sticking up in the middle of it. Then I would have had photographers waiting to record the happy couple when they saw it. The photos would have gone straight to the interwebs.
am I mean?
No different really from a scam couple who engineers a fake fall in a grocery store so they can extort them. The key difference here is that the law is a party to the extortionist scam.
By liberal “logic” Nazis in full regalia could march into a Jewish-owned bakery/print shop/sign shop/etc. and order the owners to make or bake them items for a Nazi rally. The owners would have to obey. So what if it violates their consciences. Liberals have decreed that nobody has the right to obey their conscience. Nazis have legal rights. They cannot be turned down....or so say the liberals.
This is absurd.
what next forced to make a cake
“for the woman I cheat with”
a cake for human animal sex?
This is no different than refusing to bake a cake with an iron file for prison escapes. Baking it may not be a crime, but delivery is the crime.
Also, you do not need ANY religion for find this BEHAVIOR disgusting or objectionable.
Wow, that was an easy bow and scrape, walk away answer.
“It won’t work anyway” so let’s bow and scrape to the new American Fascists.
Could a Nazi sue a Jewish sculptor for refusing to make a sculpture of a Heir Hitler standing on the throat of a sterotypical hasidic jew?
I am with you. I have refused business (in some cases without explaining why), and I have charged double or triple for people I didn't like (liberals), but I have never delivered anything but the best possible product I could produce within the specified time and budget constraints.
[ Jack is my baker. If you knew Jack, as I have for nearly 20 years, you would know he would never purposely make a bad cake. He is proud of his “art” and does an incredible job. He has made me everything from foot long Macaws, to motorcyles, “drunken” tulips (21st birthday) and peacocks. He is a good kind man and does not deserve the treatment he is getting. I have a feeling that Jack will be teaching them a thing about tolerance. ]
This is the thing that the leftists don’t see, they are undermining a person’s artistic integrity in the name of “feel good fascism”...
Hell that is an awesome term to describe most Liberal Control freak Policies.... “Feel Good Fascism”....
It would be one thing if the Baker made uniform loaves of bread and then refused to sell one of the many loaves to someonhe because they were gay, but custom cakes IS AN ART and as such the owner is an ARTISAN!
The Democrats hate Artisans...
I absolutely agree with that.
Plus, the liberals lie that businesses and organizations do not have principles that they operate by.
Didn’t Mozilla fire its CEO over a donation to a pro-marriage group?
Do I honestly think that the Shady Lane Vegetarian restaurant will sell me a pure beef hamburger?
These people are dishonest as well as being wrong.
LOL. And the boss probably knew it was b.s., too.
If you know him personally, please communicate my support for his courage and Faith. The early martyrs suffered this kind of persecution and their steadfastness inspired a thousand generations. Mr. Phillips is a latter-day martyr to political correctness and perverse thuggery.
He is to be admired.
“Wow, that was an easy bow and scrape, walk away answer.”
No, it’s a factual answer. The statutes are designed a certain way so that they can’t be used the way you proposed. If you don’t like those facts, take it up with the people who wrote the statutes, not the messenger who informs you of those facts.
Sell a cake to the KKK that says “Obama is a ni r”. And see if he has to do that.
This country is bowing down to 2 to 3% of the people while telling the majority to walk away from their religious beliefs.
