A private business should have the right to do business with whomever they choose, just as people have the right to go to whichever business they want.

Phillips has not decided whether to appeal to a higher court, said his attorney, Nicolle Martin.

He should bake them the cake, but only use “organic fudge” for icing...

Next time the baker comes across such a pervert "couple" he should agree to make the cake but make sure it's the worst cake anyone's ever tasted.The perverts will get the message and there won't be a blessed thing they can do about it.
Can I use the word "blessed" when discussing a pervert "marriage"?

So this “judge” is now saying that the ‘right to refuse service’ no longer exists?

the cost to society and the hurt caused to persons who are denied service simply because of who they are." Why is it no one considers the "cost to society" in the other direction?
Is society improved by catering to perverts?
Why is it that the "hurt caused to persons" "because of who they are" always ALWAYS only goes one way?

Of course, “the cost to society” of the destruction of the natural family is totally irrelevant. All that matters is the hurt feelings of those who want their own way no matter what.

“cost to society”? And what is the cost when our freedom of conscience, religion and CHOICE(where have I seen that word before?) are denied BY GOV’T

“This view, however, fails to take into account the cost to society and the hurt caused to persons who are denied service simply because of who they are.”
This of course does not apply to Obamacare.

So now that alcoholism counts as a disability, can I make a bar tender/liquor store clerk keep selling me booze?

Those gays were just trying to harass and provoke. They must have known before hand that they opposed gay marriage. There surely must be other bakers in the area. Then too, why even mention they were gay?

You have the “choice” to kill your unborn baby but not the “choice” to not make a “wedding cake” for perverts. Is this a great country or what?
To: SkyDancer
“Those gays were just trying to harass and provoke. “
You are absolutely right. This is about getting publicity and pushing the homosexual agenda.

You’re chewing gum in class. The teacher says, “Well, Johnny, did you bring enough for everybody?” This sort of socialism has been preached at us for as long as we’ve been alive. Is it a surprise to find it in the courts? Everybody must have everything equally. (Unless you’re a protected class. Then you get extra stuff nobody else is entitled to.)
To: SkyDancer
you nailed it!
WHY mention the couple was “gay”
This “attempt” to get the baker to make the wedding cake was an ASSAULT by the PRIDE TROOPS!
the judge is likely “gay” as well.
