Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian on Thursday ordered the owners of a former Gresham bakery to pay $135,000 in damages to a lesbian couple for refusing to make them a wedding cake.
Avakian's ruling upheld a preliminary finding earlier this year that the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa had discriminated against the women on the basis of their sexual orientation.

The bakers could have beaten them up on the street and not been fined this much. Political victims.

Desperate people do desperate things and there are laws higher that Oregon state law. All the parties involved should reflect on alternatives to resolve this matter.

These patriots need to move to America.
Perhaps some Texans will see fit to increase the number of bakers in San Antonio by 2.

If I had owned this business I would have gotten a burn permit from the city then let the insurance lapse and burn the damned thing down to the ground...
