Walmart just scans your image and the result come out of a printer. The baker didn't know what it was and like not even right side up.

If these people don't even keep up with current events or politics, then they really have no business trying to make political statements by picking and choosing which symbols they are going to print on cakes.
Maybe, but again, they recognize the confederate flag. They don't recognize the ISIS flag. Would you be offended if they refused to decorate a cake with a Swastika? Or perhaps printing a flag on a cake of the Ottoman Empire to celebrate the Armenian genocide, which I'm guess plenty of people are also unfamiliar with.

The biker says he went to get the Confederate flag made "the other day", they wouldn't do it, so he WENT BACK "yesterday" and they printed the ISIS cake. SO WHY DO BOTH FORMS HAVE SAME PICKUP DATE AND TIME? (25th at noon). If he's not truthful here I'd not be surprised if he lied to the employee about what the ISIS image was.

The world ignored it.

So said Hitler.

Because he wanted it for a certain day? I mean not everyone goes to get a cake made on the day they want it right?

Mind blower there.

This does beg a couple of questions though. What did he need the cake for? And at what sort of event is a cake with a confederate flag on it completely interchangeable with a cake baring the ISIS flag?

And did he eat the cake? I would have. Perhaps he wasted it, feeling that throwing it away was symbolic, though it's not. He would have just wasted a perfectly good cake. Not like the money for that cake actually does to ISIS. It goes to Walmart.

There is something fishy about this guy's story. I mean, really, it sounds like he just wanted to see what would happen and he also happened to rent a camera for the 25th.

He wanted to show the complete absurdity of the leftist herd mentality.

Confederate flag means slavery

I don't know what this is so ok never mind they are currently dealing in slavery.

Plain ignorance.

I think bakers shold be free to bake, or refuse to bake any cake they want, and that goes for gay-marriage cakes too. If they think certain designs are bad for business, then why should be allowed to refuse to bake them. If you insist it is a liberal stance which supports the freedom to refuse it, then so be it.

As a leftist may ask in America 2015 is corporate America separated from the American government or are their arms attached and one and the same?
