The key word you used in the sentence is... Force.

What part of the word Force, equals anything remote to Freedom, or Liberty?

Yes, in the name of freedom, it would be very wrong to force anyone to do anything they do not wish to do. Regardless if it is baking you a cake, or a doctor refusing to treat you.

Life is ruff. Grow some freak'n brass balls.

He should bake Ex-Lax into the cake. That should prevent any homosexual copulation on their wedding night.

Elsewhere in about 5-7 years will have to be out of the USA, because that will be the law everywhere in the USA by about 2020. There will be legal gay marriage in the entire country and non-discrimination laws. There are 20 states that have legalized it now. I do agree the "sensitivity training" requirement is silly, but it is not really difficult to comply with that. As long as they are serving all couples wishing to marry, that is the important thing IMO.

Wait that doesn't sound quite right.

What an outrage that courts have forced this man to bake cakes and not make any money off them and attend the gay weddings.

Wait that doesn't sound quite right either.

What I don't get here is, what is the purpose behind taking this guy to court VS just going to another bakery?
Some folks just live for controversy I guess.

But hey, nobody said he has to bake them a good cake......

gay cakes are causing too much division
