“Does the constitution only apply to people that choose to put food on the table by being someone else’s employee/slave?”

We fought a civil war over this issue already. The outcome was a Constitutional amendment against involuntary servitude and slavery except as punishment for a crime.

The homosexuals are not merely seeking to do business without identifying their sexual deviancy, nor are they seeking to do business while merely identifying their sexual deviancy. They are demanding that everyone else must affirm and participate in their sexual deviancy.

Homosexuals and similar deviants will never be satisfied by anything. They will continue to make more and more demands until it escalates to openly gang-raping whatever new flesh they encounter. It is a sickness that must be stopped in order for society to continue to exist.

All of the judges, legislators, and plaintiffs and their lawyers in these cases are guilty of crimes against humanity. Their treachery will only be stopped when we have open war.

Whatever happened to the days a business could refuse service?

I wonder if these gay couples go to several card designers and cake bakers until they find one who refuses them, then they raise a stink about being refused.....

that's exactly what they are doing. They are attempting to drive all moral people out of business.

When TX started with the gay marriage cr@p, a two-male couple from uber lib Austin drove 2+ hours to a little conservative town to register. They tried to start something because the county clerk said she hadn’t received the updated licenses yet. Hey, if the county didn’t have the paperwork, then they don’t have the paperwork. Deal with it. Come back in a few days. But noooo, they immediately tried to sue. Guaranteed they’d shopped around.

This sh!t will go on until the U.S. Supreme Court rules (correctly) that most anti-discrimination laws are blatantly unconstitutional.

It's not going to happen. Read through the oral arguments to the Masterpiece Cakeshop case. The justices were begging counsel to tell them how they can square it with previous public accommodation rulings. The court has dug a hole that it can't get out of. Of course the entire edifice of decisions rests on a blatant unconstitutional attempt to deny anyone involved in commerce the right of free association.

A restaurant (or any other business) should be able to deny service to anyone based on any criteria they want. If they don't want to serve blacks, or whites for that matter, it is absolutely within their rights to do so. That the government would deny this right is tyranny. Of course, I'm absolutely within my rights to refuse to patronize any business that has any policies that I abhor as well. This is what freedom is.

Won’t stand up to the ruling that the Supreme Court just handed down.

I still don't get it.

The solution to this crap seems so obvious.

If a couple of deviants bullied me into baking a cake or designing invitations for their "wedding", I can guarantee that on their big day they'd be wishing they picked someone else.

When will Christians approach Muslim businesses and force them to produce goods contrary to Islam?

Maybe a cake with “JESUS IS LORD”.

That went away when the courts started to interpret the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1972 Equal Opportunity Act.

Not sure if it really breaks down male/female.

Think of all the males we have excoriated for doing the same thing.

The principle is much older than that. English common law, going back to the Middle Ages, required certain businesses (inns, ferry boats, toll bridges) to serve every "peaceable" customer on a first-come first-served basis.

We need normal people to pose as abnormal, and go into a muzzy bakery, and ask the muzz’s to bake a gay cake. When they refuse, sue their a$$es off.

Simply put a big sign in the window of your business and in all ads that you oppose gay marriage, gay adoption, etc and that you donate 10% of all sales and services monies to Pro-traditional marriage groups and Conservative causes and see what happens

Bacon is best! BBQ invitations for pork spare ribs..

But let’s get real. The court system only has a few enemies, Christians and Jews at the top of the list.

An interesting note: the business does not have a “Brick and Mortar” building in Phoenix, doing it all online. So how can Phoenix demand compliance of them? Based on where the artists live? Where the server they use is located? Their Post Office box location?

It seems to me that even in the worst case, they should be able to move outside of the border with Phoenix, then tell the city to bugger off.
