Here's a tip. The baker didn't kick anyone out of his store. He didn't ask the gay guys to leave. He had served them in the past. It isn't about "baking a cake". It's about decorating one with images the baker found offensive. That's his right. The supreme Court agrees, even the liberal judges.
I wouldn't waste my keystrokes. These people ^ know this. It is just their job to take play devil's advocate.

Some people either ignore the differences in these stories to try to make an invalid point, or they aren't smart enough to see the obvious differences. Sad, but a good portion of the public is uniformed, and rely on others to generate their talking points for them.

I don't like what they did. Not a fan of Sarah Huckapoo or Trump, but it sets a bad precedence. We can only eat at places that like our politics. That is crazy people. It's just buying into the political madness of the times.

There it is. The ever-present envy....never too far below the surface, it boils.

Lowlife was proud of themselves and wanted to show the world and get pats on the back. We know what they say about pride goeth before the fall.

employees were uneasy about serving SHS food. Wonder how they feel working there now? Plenty of crazies in this world.

The law is inconsistent. It prohibits denial of service based on one group of subjective personal criteria, and allows it for another group of personal, subjective criteria. I understand that and have made a point of acknowledging that the law itself is inconsistent.

That said, following an inconsistent law does not make the law or following it logically consistent. You cannot get to logical consistency from a starting point of inconsistency. The laws that govern all kinds of stuff are wildly inconsistent, particularly in the area of association and "positive rights" where people are forced to do things for others.

And here begins logical inconsistency. Subjective criteria is used to force businesses to associate with some but not with others. It is institutionalized inconsistency.

I get it, the law is inconsistent. I haven't claimed otherwise, but thanks for backing me up.
