I kinda understand your irritation about the facts-lite interview, but consider this:

No matter WHAT it was about the cake that was offensive to the bakers, they have a right to refuse the order.

Even if they're black bakers who don't like white frosting, or white bakers who don't like chocolate cake.

It's wrong to make a tradesman (much less an artisan) take an order he would rather not take, for whatever reason. We're talking about free enterprise here, not involuntary servitude.

Any time!

Where can we contribute GUNS AND AMMUNITION (training $$ too) to persecuted Christians EVERYWHERE.

I have no problem dying for my faith—just as long as my cold perforated corpse is surrounded by expended brass and the bodies (MANY bodies)of my enemies.

Pacifism doesn’t work for me.

So Religious rights and Free Speech rights are black and white and undeniably explicitly written clearly in the Constitution, First Amendment. Where exactly is the homosexual amendment? How is this even a contest???? Outrageous!

I want someone to ask the gaystapo: “Why did you DISCRIMINATE against the other bakers in town?”

The whole Civil Rights\’Public accommodation’ was merely another camel nose under the tent....and see where’s its gotten us. Rights vs. privileges

If, and only until, they signed on the dotted line do they have a case (contract). *NO* biz has the obligation to cater (excuse the pun) to any/all (POSSIBLE) clientele.
