Also the reason their fine was so high was primarily due to their actions after the incident.

Nonsense.

Your casual dismissal of this type of massive government overreach will one day bite YOUR hand.

It is a sin for Christians to profit from sinners.

Jews and Muslims don't have that prolem.

The government is not your friend. If you do something like not paying your taxes they can and will shut you down and clear out your bank account.


I still do not know why anyone would want to do business with a business that does not want their business.... Why give them money when they will probably do a shoddy job? Was that the only bakery in the city?

If you are not happy with the service you receive from a company then tell all your family and friends and break out the poison pen and go online. Getting lawyers and now the state involved is a bit over the top but that is the way the country is going. SUE SUE SUE.

And yet Muslims can refuse to violate their religious beliefs in the workplace !

An illogical non sequitor. This is why nobody takes the Left seriously.

Poorly written article, doesn't explain why $7000 was taken from their account in addition to the $135,000. Why shouldn't they have to pay like any other business that violates the law. Anyway according to this article they received $515,000 in donations so I wouldn't feel too sorry for them just yet. That money could have gone to many better causes than this stubborn couple, what happened to the remaining funds?


Sounds very similar to Bundy, break the law then lose in court and complain about the tyrannical government.

The story stirred great debate in the U.S. over religious freedom issues, and the couple received significant support online — a fundraising campaign raised at least $515,000 as of late September for their cause.
