You mean the same anti-discrimination law that prevents religious discrimination? That one?

The very ones.

Can the conservative Christian who owns a bakery now simply ask the gay couple who comes in wanting a wedding cake, “Well, what do you think of Trump? Did you vote for him or did you vote for Hillary?” If they indicate they hate Trump and voted for Hillary, can the couple then say, “Get out of my damned bakery. I don’t make cakes for DEMOCRATS or anyone with whom I disagree with politically!”?

Worth a shot.

I don’t feel you have the right to deny “regular” service or goods to anyone.

Well, I think the right of a business to deny their service to any one should be protected. I think this because I believe in individual freedom and freedom of association.

Will you please explain why you "feel" that businesses should be forced to do business with people or entities they consider undesirable or reprehensible?

The people who fall into these categories are general protected from discrimination for employment purposes. I'd bet a similar list is used when deciding discrimination cases for public places: race, nationality, national origin, color, religion, creed, sex (including pregnancy), gender identity or expression, domestic partnership or civil union status, ancestry, age, mental or physical disability, perceived disability, AIDS and HIV status, affectional or sexual orientation, marital status, familiar status, atypical hereditary, cellular or blood trait, genetic information, service in the armed forces, or status as a Vietnam era or a special disabled veteran or liability for military service.

The list seems to grow every year. Maybe we can get MAGA listed...

The bar was owned by a lib, the bakery is owned by a conservative. According to activist judges conservatives have no rights. Remember Democrats are communists even their goose stepping judges!

Because liberals have written civil rights legislation to make serving them a right while giving themselves permission to discriminate.

The Colorado Civil Rights Commission in the SAME WEEK said:

* that the Christian baker must make the homosexual wedding cake, refusing service violated their civil rights

* the atheist can refuse service to Christians because that is their freedom of association in belief

Liberals are UNFAIR in defining civil rights laws to say you must serve them, but they can refuse to serve you.

And they’ve already written it into laws at all levels while courts have been backing them up. That’s the essence of the case before the Supreme Court.

Oh, and liberals have the unfair standards for Islam. That the Muslim truck driver who doesn’t want to drive the beer truck or Muslim clerk who doesn’t want to ring up pork and wine have to be accommodated. The Obama DoJ took up multiple cases like this on the side of Muslims.

But if you try to refuse to do something per the Christian faith? Good luck trying, but the State has openly discriminated against you for years.

As liberals have written and interpreted the law, homosexuals are a protected class. That’s how refusing to serve them gets you sued for civil rights violations.

This precedent will be used solely to protect Facebook, Google/YouTube, and Twitter after they purge the likes of us. Degenerates playing marriage dress-up in order to attack legit businesses will still be okay. Thanks blam.
