Speaking as a gay man married to another man, I fully support this dude's right to having that sign up. I'm a strong believer in free speech, including speech that people don't like.
He has the right to post his sign. And I have the right to not shop there. That's how its suppose to work. I absolutely hate it that gay people are suing. Just go somewhere else for goodness sake.
That's not going to fly... apples and oranges... the baker WOULD make a cake but the CIRCUMSTANCES are different... selling hardware is NOT protected with the Supreme Court decision... idiots will be idiots and people will try to mislead what the case was REALLY about... You do HURT your cause when you are lying, you know that right...

What do you think I'm lying about?
I want to know who the homophobes are so I can avoid giving them my money. I say let them have their signs up so we can avoid shopping there.
I certainly don't want to support christian businesses. Christians hate. That's what they do. Why would I want to force them to stealth up and con me out of supporting their businesses?
I just don’t understand people who cannot separate their personal feelings from business.
I'm with you. Like I said in another thread, if it's a religious belief and he thinks being gay is a sin, he's cherry-picking because he's serving sinners all day long.
The guy has a right to put the sign up and people have a right to go elsewhere because they won't support someone with his beliefs. I suppose it's win-win if you look at it that way.
And as I've stated before, I would never push the issue when it comes to food and drink.

You are LYING because YOU know that's not what the Supreme Court's decision.... It's one thing to sell hardware and another to be force to make LGBT-directed items...

If you had any sense of humor you would go in, not say you were gay, but doing the whole flaming "The Birdcage" act while being oblivious.

Oh, that's what you meant. I agree, actually, that the court's decision was meant for gay directed items. Still, I want freedom of expression to be expanded to other things.
It's no different whatsoever. The OP is being disingenuous if he is pretending otherwise. As a gay man, he should know better.
But Jim Crow is exactly what the right is fighting to bring back. I hope you enjoy it, OP, when you are faced with signs outside of numerous businesses saying you are not welcomed there. Just remember that you asked for that.
The country continues to devolve in the age of Trump.
