IMO this is just one more instance of the gay militants targeting a Christian business. They have sued photographers and wedding venues successfully and will continue their war on Christians every chance they get. Everywhere we turn, our values are being challenged. Such a change from my childhood!
Will give the Commisssar Avakian a lesson in American free enterprise...
... freedom of religious conscience and the exercise thereof...
--AND--
What happens to uppity politicians & bureaucrats when they decide they can lord the power of the office over the inalienable rights of "We the People..."
He didn’t reuse to sell goods to them. He simply refused to personally bake a cake for their “marriage”, implying his approval of their sin for his personal gain.
Bravo for Christians who “walk the walk,” in spite of being persecuted by the ungodly and their enforcers in government.
The fang-tooth man-hating feminazis are an angry bunch. Angry because they were rejected by men.
“Labor and Industries Commissioner Brad Avakian says people who open their store to the public can’t discriminate when customers come in to buy their goods.”

Why the h*** not? Businesses refuse service to people who come in shirtless or shoeless. A fancy restaurant can require proper attire. This is bogus.
Little by little, our freedoms are being taken away.
There’s a clear distinction here between this retailer and the people in the south who refused service to blacks in the 50s (and earlier). Here the cake maker is being charged with refusing to provide and produce a specific product. I have no doubt he would have no objection to baking these women a cake and even icing it but the conflict came when they wanted the custom cake to celebrate their union which to him was immoral. It would be like someone coming in and demanding that he create a custom cake of a pen*s and a vagi*a. I’m guessing he wouldn’t do that either. I hope his lawyers figure out that distinction.
My labor is mine; and I can sell it, or not sell it, to anyone I choose.
Anything else is involuntary servitude.
Remember Chik-fil-A Day!
