Their hijinks during their parades just feeds the stereotype of them being freaks and sex addicts.
Gay pride parades are in fact freak pride parades. The gay people participating are freaks, the straight people participating are freaks, what they have in common is they are all freaks and proud of it. So they are treated as such.

are you comparing a private bakery to your country's public health care system? that's like comparing apples and termites.

They should just take their business to another bakery where they would actually be welcomed. What is so hard about that? Unfortunately these unhappy lesbians decided to grab some headlines and file a lawsuit. This cuts both ways too and bakeries will creatively adapt. Next time the bakery won’t say a thing and there will be some “contamination” included in the cake as they hand it over with a smile.

The same could be said about straight couples who can't keep their hands off of each other everywhere they go and who throw big extravagant weddings just for the attention.

Yes, and Rosa Parks should have shut up, taken a seat in the back, and refrained from making any waves that might upset right wingers.

Personally I encourage right-wingers pouting over the fact they aren't allowed their bigoted business practices to attempt to poison their customers. A few nine-figure punitive damage suits suit me fine.

What sort of recourse do people in this instance have who are refused service?
Go to a gay baker. Or marry someone of the opposite sex as God intends.

Well then... gays should object to them being called "gay pride" days/parades. And they should demand that they change their name to "freak pride" days/parades or whatever. And who wants men dresses up as giant penises being able to adopt children and who wants to fight for sex freaks having the right to marriage with full spousal benefits?

This is not much different from ghetto mannerism blacks spoiling it for the blacks who are hardworking, educated, well-spoken career-minded people. The bad ones are more in the public eye and create the negative stereotypes about their community.

And yes, there are gay men who are conservative in their manner and act like straight men, but really they seem to be very few and far between. And yes, I do have many gay and lesbian friends and acquaintances.

God is just a story. Got an argument that doesn't involve mythical invisble superfriends?
