“In addition, the company offered to do the invitations at no cost to the couple.”
That does not seem fair.
Do straight couples always get free wedding invitations?
I would bet that they do not.
Back somewhere in my posting history I have posts putting forth the idea of assigning the proceeds of a homosexual wedding cake to promoting traditional marriage.
I now think that the idea may be subject to discrimination laws, because homosexual cakes are singled out. Dont know, its a legal question, and Im not an attorney.
The easy workaround, however, is to donate a fixed amount from all wedding cakes to those causes.
Here is to kicker; Encourage matching funds from non-business sources, friends, churches, customers for cakes of their choosing.
Business contributes $10 per cake (lets say), others match it at 10:1, or some amount of their own choosing.
Post the proceeds of the different cakes prominently in the store.
Suddenly, thousands of dollars are raised, the community has an opportunity to be part of the put-down, and, as nearly as I can determine, no laws are broken.
Should we take a cue from the good folks in Baltimore? No, not riot and loot and burn, but get in the streets with signs and make our presence known. Put these ***holes under some pressure. We accomplish nothing talking amongst ourselves.
