Not really. He can file a federal lawsuit against the state based upon the previous Supreme Court ruling. He’s going to win again.

He should completely ignore these requests, then he can’t be accused of denying them what they’re asking for.

Not a setup is BS,

It could have just ordered the pink and blue cake without telling the baker what the cake represented. If it felt compelled it could have simply said it was for her fraternal twins.

That’s not the way it works. Say a prayer and win.

so, no shirt no shoes no service is out the window.

Not wearing a shirt or shoes is not protected by anti-discrimination laws. Sexuality is.

The baker should have just baked the cake. Decorated it with opposite colors, white cake or chocolate. Instead of congrats on your transition, wtite in Happy Birthday.
Oh my, mistakes happen, so take me to court.

BTW- Love your tag line :)

If the medium was a web page, the plaintiff was a political conservative, and the defendant was Facebook, how would the judge have ruled? The cases seem parallel.

He isn't just praying. Again, he is fighting evil on God's terms. He is resisting evil and doing it openly. I'm sorry that you don't understand.
Have a blessed day.

Sorry, religious zealotry doesn’t work against in-your-face Marxists.

"While Jack Phillips said he could not make the cake because of its message, Jones said the case was about a refusal to sell a product, not compelled speech. "

Nonsense and a false dichotomy. . If he made a cake for a KKK celebration then he would be judged to be a racist as being complicit (a legal category) in the celebration of it, and refusal to sell a product due to not wanting to be complicit in the intended us of it is not the same as simply refusing to a costumer any service. being compelled speech

"Scardina said she wanted to “challenge the veracity” of Phillips statements that he would serve LGBT customers,"

In context, he meant he would have sold the homosexual couple any cake or product, even one they could decorate themselves but not a work of art which was for the expressed purpose of celebrating a wedding that was both immoral according to God and illegal according to the CO constitutions at the time. Yet the kangaroo court civil rights commission treated him like a Nazi denying Jews any service.

" but her attempt to get a cake was not a “set up” intended to file a lawsuit, Jones said."

Sure.

Without "religious zealotry" there wouldn't BE a case. He won a case at SCOTUS. How many have you won?

Bye!

“This is about a business that is open to the public that simply says to an entire class of people in the community that your identity, who you are, is something that is objectional,” he said.

No it's about not requiring some one to betray his own beliefs!!!! There are literally hundreds of bakeries they can walk into and buy their disgusting cakes!!!

Jack should refuse. Everyone with more than one working brain cell knows Scardina has launched a campaign of harassment because Jack is a Christian. Why this has been allowed to continue I’ll never know

The queer people are trying their damnedest to find an issue to punish this guy for not serving the homosexual cause. Normal people are watching and taking this all in. The LGBTQ people are creating animosity against their cause among normal people by beating on this man. They knew from the previous cases that he would object to this, and went after him instead of just going to another baker. It is obviously, because of the arrogance of gender-goofy poeple, an attempt to punish this baker, that is clear.

In other threads you tout the absolute right of businesses to do whatever they want when it comes to vaccines. Here, you support faggots running roughshod over the First Amendment. No matter, Fulton is the shot across your queer agenda’s bow. There are now 5 votes for tossing Employment Division v. Smith. It’s just going to take the right case to finish that job.

It is clear at this point that not only do you hate the 2nd Amendment, you also hate the 1st.

Vexatious litigator.These people display their lunacy by “changing” their sex, then want everyone to agree to serve their delusions. The plaintiff is a obsessive compulsive personality and the state of Colorado is complicit with foisting delusions on the general public.
They will reap what they sow.
