File suit in federal court for title 18 section 1983 violation of the 1st Amendment freedom of peaceful assembly, freedom of speach and freedom of the exercise of religion rights.
With America embracing evil and depravity like it is, anyone who stands firm on the side of morality and decency is bound to be persecuted and punished.
Art 1, §3. — [Freedom of worship; religious liberty]
The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without discrimination or preference, shall forever be allowed in this state to all humankind; and no person shall be rendered incompetent to be a witness on account of his or her opinions on matters of religious belief; but the liberty of conscience hereby secured shall not be so construed as to excuse acts of licentiousness, or justify practices inconsistent with the peace or safety of this state. (Amended by vote of the people November 6, 2001.)
Time for the Supreme Court to step in on cases like this. It is simply wrong to force anyone to violate their religious or personal beliefs. The challenge is where the line gets drawn.
The gaystapo never seems to do this at muzzie businesses or mosques.
Leftists do not like freedom.
OMG!!! Someone has said they don’t agree with my lifestyle choice!! I’ve suffered mental anguish!!
A Constitutional right trumps a statutory one every time
Freedom of Religion > Homosexual “rights”
Freedom of Association > Homosexual “rights”
If it was me, I’d sue the bastards and force the issue
Probably why they are not under Gods protection.
I don’t understand their claiming a split here with refusing to hold the ceremony but being just fine with hosting the reception?
And of the $13K, poor, injured NYS gets $10K ???
So NY is okay with taping someone without their knowledge?
How many places did they call FIRST before they found one they can sue?
People the law is on the side of the nasties now, the fags and dykes. Just tell the fags and dykes you are BOOKED UP, or your going to get trashed like these two did.
We need to stop responding to these evil people with common decency, that is speaking truthfully as if they deserved an honest and polite response (and a polite refusal is a whole lot nicer than what they should get under this precedent). We do not answer openly when speaking to a robber or a rapist, and these people are on the same moral level.
When witches like this demand service (and any request that can be enforced by activist courts should be treated as a demand), the response should be a polite “yes”, followed by a contract that clearly states no penalty for non-performance, and a last-minute cancellation due to an unforeseen issue.
It’s a shame that we can’t politely agree to tolerate each other when the abnormal side seeks out those who are most revolted by their perversion and then tries to compel active participation, but those are the rules they have chosen to impose on decent people.
Given the rules they have chosen, we should comply with the letter of the law. Perverts don’t want their “special” day ruined, and they will seek out those who actually want to profit from their pretend “wedding” rather than seeking those who most want to be left alone.
This is about money to the state. Notice their “mental anguish” share is $10,000, while the lesbians take is only $1,500 each. New York is not free anymore, if it ever was. When the state can dictate to a business who they are forced to do business with, tyranny is already here. Freedom and liberties of America are no longer available for those who reside and conduct commerce in New York. Get out while the gettins good.
Let’s start a Gifford Defense Fund...we need to pitch in a help the Giffords. When a business is forced to do something... it means we aren’t free. Will FR have to have DU members on here?
There is no such thing as a lesbian wedding.
Grrrr!!!!
