If Roberts were consistent (wishful thinking?) he will uphold the laws duly passed, as he alluded to in the horrific Obamacare case, in which he said that the function of the court is not to protect people from their own laws.
I actually trust Roberts more in these cases than I do wishy-washy Kennedy.

The cards of the homo-fascists have already been laid on the table for all to see when they vigorously oppose ANY religious conscience objection exemptions in their homo-"marriage" laws. While it used to be standard consideration when passing these laws, conscience exceptions are almost completely ignored now, as they were in Washington, one of the most irreligious, pagan states in the country.

Do you think the left has some serious dirt on Roberts that unduly influences him?

The very real injustice pre-1964 was that the old law restrained some citizens from associating with other citizens under penalty of law.
The very real injustice post-1964 is that the new law forces everyone to associate with everyone else under penalty of law.
Both laws are toxic to the spirit of free association. The Constitutional solution is to let private individuals associate and exclude as they see fit without State intervention. Retain only that public entities have an obligation to serve everyone impartially.

For whatever reason Roberts appears to be beholden to outside interests. He cannot be counted on to take a principled stand.

Florists are NOT miracle workers. There is absolutely no way to “beautify” a “same sex wedding”.

Like there aren’t enough homo florists that would bend over forward for that business. This is about making straight businessmen and women pay for their traditonal majority beliefs. The homo victim card is being played as much or more than the race card these days.

Are there other florists? yes.
Is the product a comodity? yes.
Is there a contract already? no.
Is this person a slave? no.
Does an artist HAVE to accept a painting commission? really? no.
Are there businesses that discriminate in favor of homosexuals? A rainbow flag is more incidious than a confederate flag. Certain tenants need not apply, Certain customers not wanted when the flag is present.
These homosexuals have no real case.
