Are rainbow cupcakes... QUEER?.....
just google the reporter and you will see they generally cover the homosexual beat at the newsdesk.
IF this had been a cupcake store WHY would they even need to say this was for a sex fetish party?
I am reminded of South Park, and when they discovered Tom Cruise working at the candy factory as a fudge packer....
You can’t expect them to have the capacity to make a cupcake when they can’t even get the process for creating life correct.....
Wouldn’t rainbow Twinkies be more appropriate?
Be careful!
A gay just might want the Burger King to give him a lube job!
stop insulting bundles of twigs.
“The rights of everyone but the baker...”
Why not? They are just using the same philosophy behind the smoking bans at privately owned businesses. Many a FReeper celebrated those bans, now the tools they established are honed for use in many other ereas of non conforming private businesses.
Media opportunity calculations were performed to determine the store most likely to refuse to make rainbow colored cupcakes, and “Just Cookies” was chosen for the obvious reason.
When “Just Brakes” refuses to perform transmission work on my car I am gonna go on a media blitz ...
Homosexuals are not a 'race' of people, they are people who like to have sex with others of the same sex. It is a sexual preference that is revolting to some, even morally wrong.
Therefore, if a group that engages in same sex stuff and wants to celebrate their lust preference orders cupcakes from a business owner who finds their activities offensive, HE HAS EVERY RIGHT to refuse to support their cause.
Word of refusal will probably hurt his business, but he is standing on principle. Hope we are still allowed to do that in our country.
What homosexuals will never get is that even if they can manage to turn of the instinctive yuck factor so many have in reaction to their sexual proclivities, social acceptance will NEVER help them alliviate their own deep, deep self loathing. They know it, and we know it. That is why they die early. Not society, but the fact that they know it is a genuinely perverted behavior.
they could have just give out Skittles candies and promoted students to “taste the rainbow” (actual slogan)
A bakery is not a “public service”. Its a private business. It serves people who privately seek its services. It chooses its customers as much as they chose to ASK for the baker’s services. One person has no more “right” to demand the baker’s services than the next.
Now, if the baker was asked to draw penises on the cookies, or something like that, I'd refuse because of values. But if the issue was simply a multi-colored cookie, I think they over-reacted.
It's easy to get a lube at Burger King. Just ask for extra mayonnaise. Or no mayonnaise because the illegals and teenagers making the sandwiches often seem to disregard the word "no".
Gee, it never occurred to them to find another bakery.
I smell a setup.”
Go make your own cupcakes!!!!!!!
Go make your own cookies & decorate them as you wish!!!!
As a private business, I have the right to refuse service to anyone I want.
Wonder if they would ship goods across the country?
What is their speciality? Next time I am near that area, I will remember to make a purchase.
They can refuse what ever they want.
IOt is still a private business.
not if the city has a special rights for homosexuals clause in a non-discrimination ordinance.
