Having served in three services over 32 years, I am sure that giving an order to military units to march and fire on civil unrest will not be in the best interest of the local commander. Ever since Kent state, the military has taught the junior enlisted repeatedly about use of force against civilians. This has been effectively proven in both Iraq and Afghanistan and would be more difficult in America by leaps and bounds.

Perhaps the government can compel the photographer to share their bed as punishment for exercising her First Amendment rights. I mean what the hell, if the government can compel you to provide a service to something you find repugnant, the punushment can be repugnant as well.
Freaking lunacy.

The homosexuals will troll for Christian businesses on purpose so they can sue them all and drive them out of business.
...Just like the radical Islamists suing anyone who opposes them.

I bet these rules wouldn’t apply to a radical Muzzie.

"Joplin fan, eh?

Actually, I never heard the Joplin version until a few years ago; but everybody and their brother has recorded that song, from Bobbie Gentry to Jerry Lee Lewis.
That line about freedom meaning "nothing left to lose" always stood out to me though...there's a lot of truth in that.
Kinda reminds me of when George Carlin said, "the only reason we have houses is to have a palce to keep our STUFF"
Lots of folks losing their houses, and having to sell their "STUFF" to eat these days, the obama steam roller is going to keep on pushing until folks will have "nothing left to lose"...then all hells going to break loose.

Is there a fund where we could help pay the fine for them?

The only way we will permanently get rid of this is to abolish the pernicious civil “rights” legislation of the 60’s. There is absolutely NO constitutional reason a business should be told how to conduct their business or who to serve.
