So what's any of that got to do with faggots in Oregon trying to run a business out of town?
You're on the wrong thread.

A Gresham bakery that refused to make a wedding cake for a same-sex couple, prompting a state investigation, shut its doors.
On Sunday, KGW stopped by Sweet Cakes by Melissa and found the bakery completely empty. All counter tops, display cases and decorations were gone.
Hanging in the window was a sign from the Oregon Family Council that read "Religious freedom is under attack in Gresham."
As first reported in Willamette Week, Sweet Cakes by Melissa posted on its Facebook page, “This will be our last weekend at the shop we are moving our business to an in home bakery. I will post our new number soon.”
In January, Laurel Bowman said Sweet Cakes by Melissa refused to sell her a cake after learning it would be for a same-sex wedding.

Gresham is a suburb of Portland. Unfortunately this once thriving timber area has been taken over by bat crap crazy lefties.

This address is probably for their shop which closed. However their website is still up and it has an extensive menu.

Happy? This was their objective ... and the objective of most all homosexual activists (i.e., to destroy the Judeo-Christian values foundation of America).
It’s actually a criminal offense.
Good to point that out --- but it's not illegal to annoy a customer enough so that he'll never return. (In fact, it's much easier to annoy a customer than it is to not to annoy a customer.)
Dittos from New England. I take it you can ship here?
"Never kill a customer."
unless you make sausage
After 5 years you are still wondering? This guy has no clue about how the real world works, in any sphere of activity. He has been cocooned his entire life in left-wing ideologies and that is all he knows.
We need more enclaves of liberty and resistance in the US. These Leftist areas are hopeless; productive and moral citizens must and will leave.
Not a wise move.
Expect many more of these closings. It's now the fad and easy $$$ to sue a business for whatever dumb ash reason people can imagine for getting their widdle feelers hurt.
I wonder if the sodomites and their enablers belive G-d is a bigot? Does obedience to G-d make one a bigot in the eyes of the sodomites and their enablers? That appears to be the case...
Our wedding cake was done by a housewife who sold birthday and wedding cakes out of her house. Best cake ever. Prettier, tastier, fresher and much less expensive ($45!) than an ugly dried out designer cake we had at wedding two weeks later.
That.
King Moonracer: “They will always be able to find a fellow homo to fulfill their form over function predilection, but they have to stick it to someone who disagrees. It’s extremely un-American!”
Bears repeating. I especially like the part about homosexuals having a “form over function predilection.” That about sums it up. As to why their peculiar predilection deserve special government protection, I cannot fathom it.

Brief history: In 2011, the Texas Legislature passed SB 81, a bill making it legal to sell certain homemade foods like baked goods which do not require refrigeration, jams, jellies, and dried herb mixes.
While SB 81 opened up great opportunities to thousands of Texans, the bill did have some serious limitations, such as requiring that all sales occur at your home, and some foods which were equally safe, such as candy, were still not allowed. After SB 81 went into effect, an unintended result was that some cities around the state banned cottage food operations on the grounds of “zoning”.
__________________
Solution: In 2013, State Representative Eddie Rodriguez of Austin, along with the Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance, and the House Farm-To-Table Caucus, offered up HB 970, which does the following:
expands the list of allowable food to include candy, coated and uncoated nuts, unroasted nut butters, fruit butters, dehydrated fruits and vegetables, popcorn, cereal, granola, dry mix, vinegar, pickles, mustard, and roasted coffee or dry tea
prohibits a municipality from outlawing cottage food operations on the basis of “zoning”
allows sales outside the home, at specific locations such as farmers markets, farm stands, or municipal, county, or nonprofit fairs and festivals
HB 970 also adds to consumer protections by adding the following requirements:
all cottage food operators must complete an accredited food handler's course (can be taken online, usually costs about $10 and takes 2 hours or less)
all foods must be packaged in a way that prevents product contamination, except for large or bulky items
While this does not directly affect the Oregon case, it shows that not all states are insane.
The Founders intentionally did NOT say “free worship”. They said “free exercise of religion.”
For the record, I agree with what you wrote so far as how the courts and culture are directing this debate.
They are wrong, you and I are right, and God will overcome.
Yes. I'm talking victory in the real world and not any kind of dhimmi subterfuge that does not attack the enemy head on.
I knew an older fellow named Robert and he was homosexual. When he died I prepped his belongings for an estate sale. I came across his Purple Heart and Commendations from WW2.

People are going about this the wrong way. Make the cake, charge them $75,000.00. Same with the photographer in New Mexico. Want me to photgraph your wedding? It will cost you $100,000.00. Most of that will be for anti-nausia drugs to keep me from puking while I take pictures of you two sucking face with each other.
