An Iraq war veteran in Michigan canceled his order for a cake when he discovered the bakery’s owners were Muslim, one of the owners told Fox 17 West Michigan.

Zeinab Mohamed, who co-owns the Sweetcakez bakery in Grand Rapids with her husband, Javon Borst, said the wife of the buyer sent a message to them that read:

"Hey actually we're going to order our cake somewhere else my husband just found out your Muslim. And I'm not against it but he is because he was in Iraq fighting for our country against your people. He even changed his new doctor because the new one he was referred to was Muslim and he just said some things and said he doesn't feel comfortable having you make our cake. I'm so sorry."

Just you watch...They'll have to accept the cake and pay for it, or they'll go to jail.

Bullshit. Another hoax to drum up sympathy. Muslims are known liars.

A small breach of contract will be limited to routine damages for same. Which in this case would seem to be tiny.

That would never pass.

First they would force you to buy a cake. The next thing you know they’ll be making you buy other stuff - like health insurance.....

If that should transcend the ordinary effort to keep promises short of involvement in sin or something that is literally impossible, this is news to me. Don’t make such a promise a second time.

My bet is this is yet another HOAX complete with poor spelling, poor grammar, and poor punctuation.
Besides, what is it with local bakeries getting all the exciting and controversial action these days? LOL.

People cancel orders for things all the time, for a whole host of reasons, and the business cancels them. Happens to me.

Had a customer in Somerville, NJ that was a survivor of the Bataan Death March. Always made damn sure that I rented an American car when I flew in to call on him.

This just screams hoax. What wife writes to a business about her husband stating all this?
