How many GoFundMe’s can we keep up with? This is getting insane what is happening in this country. The GoFundMe’s are great but liberals know we cant keep the pace and we shouldn't have to. WTH happened to this country?

If we had a judiciary system worth a crap this wouldn’t be happening.

Emotional suffering? Tell me how much time they spent in looking for a gay cake maker before they sued this baker.

What “emotional suffering”

They specifically sought out a Christian baker and were referred to another bakery, IIRC

Feelings, and maybe a good grift.

Wouldn’t be surprised if this was a setup to make some headlines and grab some cash.

The emotional/financial suffering the baker endured is far more than anything the Berber biters had to put up with

That’s nice, but I’d also like to start a GoF..kYourself fund directed at the lesbian couple and the idiot judge.

Welcome to the Twilight Zone of administrative law, where the law, and such terms as “emotional suffering”, are essentially whatever the administrative law judge thinks they ought to be /s

The eternity in hell this couple and their cohorts will suffer will give them ample time to reflect on their decisions.

Cruz MUST take the primary as he is the only one who can articulate what we need to be said to rouse the troops .

But he is saying it should be up to the states.
