Says state, same-sex couple can demand home, savings as damages
A judge in Washington on Wednesday authorized the personal ruin of a florist whose Christian faith prevented her from promoting a same-sex wedding and who was sued by both the state and the homosexual couple.
Officials with the Alliance Defending Freedom confirmed that Benton County Superior Court Judge Alex Ekstrom granted a summary judgment in the case against Barronelle Stutzman, so the case wont proceed to trial now. It had been scheduled for March 23.
It was Ekstrom who said last month that Stutzman personally was liable for the claims against her, placing both her business assets and her home and personal savings at risk.
The judge ordered that the state and the homosexual plaintiffs, each of whom filed lawsuits, could collect damages and attorneys fees from Stutzman.
The message of these rulings is unmistakable: The government will bring about your personal and professional ruin if you dont help celebrate same-sex marriage, said ADF Senior Counsel Kristen Waggoner.

lets wait til the dust settles.....let these creeps enjoy their ill gained rewards against a good woman loved by her clientele....let them choke on their gains...
they can vote him out but then our leftist governor will simply put him on a higher court...hell, maybe he’ll end up on the SC
I say let them go after her....take every penny...then lets make this a big media blowup...Hannity, Levin,etc should pull out their entire media arsenals to display the evilness shown here...
he will NOT be on my donate to list.....whoever runs against him might...
Huge, unapologetic liberal, and an absolute idiot on top of it all. During the election literally every single newspaper in the State endorsed his opponent, except the one in Olympia.
That’s right, even the Seattle Times wouldn’t endorse him.
WA state, being the bluest of all the blue states, ignored even the advice of fellow travelers and elected him.
Boeing and Amazon and Microsoft are all big employees....unions at least at Boeing...and even though these guys have fantastic wages, they want insurance to keep getting it....vote rat....they'll tax everybody else to help you out...
also, the governors of this state and their rat underlings always always give Boeing huge tax advantages.....and they give the indian casninos the best of everything....
it pays off in contributions and votes...
indeed, will the liberals start a war if we let them?
I should get paid for this :)
After all, it is artistic license, no?
This is what happens when govt seizes control of everything. You lose your freedom. We have to transform the govt.
I’d prefer homosexual faggots and communists be stopped from destroying this nation.
I really don’t care how it’s done, as long as it’s done effectively.
This crap began with the Civil Rights Acts many Freepers love to crow some GOP voted for
No discrimination
The level of evil in Judge Alex Ekstrom and in the two homosexuals who filed this meritless lawsuit is staggering. These people disgust me.
It's called economic warfare....you go against what they desire they will take you out not as the mafia did in the street...but via your very livelihood. Obama's been doing this throughout the EU and other countries to get them to bend to his will.
Smart call. I lived in WA from 1992-2014. After the 2012 election in which WA voters approved sodomy and drug addiction, I made the decision to leave. Those two initiatives tell you all you need to know about WA's immorality. Also, rats consolidated power several years ago with all mail voting, a tactic more recently rammed through by CO rats. WA is lost. As soon as one its major employers leaves, it will become an economic hellhole in addition to the moral hellhole it already is.
That’s absolutely horse honkey. The law protects everyone, or it protects no one. This isn’t a one way street.
Just because it is like that in America, does not mean it is like that in other parts of the world. In fact.......
No. A small minority has hi-jacked our nation through “victimization” and “tolerance”, but not one real American is willing to bruise their knuckles to knock evil to its knees.
