I’ll bet the bogus “lawsuit” did not say which ingredients are and are not allowed in the cakes.

For the next two years, Phillips will also be required to submit quarterly reports to the commission to confirm that he has not turned away customers based on their sexual orientation.

...and to list and report his thoughts to the local commissars.

Yep, and we are told to just keep voting. That will change everything. Our freedoms will be restored.

They could sell blank wedding cakes (with a little man and woman on top) and stop taking orders

I think he has decided to stop baking wedding cakes : / Here is a link I found. Huffington, I know... it never ceases to amaze me that they have no problem with the Government telling folks what to do, so long as it is THEIR guys doing the telling : \

he never turned away customers based on sexual orientation, he simply refused custom orders that violated his religion

His website still shows wedding cakes. If you could order online, I'd consider ordering brownies from him.

From the article above:

Meanwhile, the bullying tactics of the militant gay rights community have not hampered the bakery’s bottom line. They’ve gotten so much business from the sales of cookies and brownies, they’ve temporarily stopped making wedding cakes

I flat out refused to go and put up “counter” posters — traditional and pro-life — in the corporate lunchroom.

I still maintain that if he does in fact have no choice but to make the cakes, require the customers to give at least six months' lead time. Quality assurance and all for such a work of art...

Communist re-education camps. All dissent is defacto evidence of mental illness and must be treated.

"Jack Phillips, the owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, in Lakewood, Colorado was directed to change his store policies immediately and force his staff to attend the training re-education sessions."

The baker needs to hang a sign on his door with a pic of a dog lifting its leg on a cake that says “we cannot be responsible for any defects in our gay wedding cakes.”
