As a baker myself, all this dumbass had to do was give an absurd price or simply state he was overbooked for that date, instead he had to be a drama queen

I don't think he could have charged a price out of line with his other stuff. It'd be the same issue.

Was that you, CC?

Say it was gay organization looking to buy a $5M catering deal? Would a Bible humping baker turn down $5M?

So you admit that the profit motive can affect positive societal change? Well I'll be.. boutons, maybe you can make a good Republican someday.

If only the fact his religion states he cannot sell to gays were true.

Is he going to make the cake as good as his others?
Are the gays going to complain about the quality of the cake no matter what?
Is he going to be persecuted because the gays say that he skimped on their cake?
Why would a gay person demand a cake from someone that didn't like them?

This guy will lose his business no matter what now. I have a friend who used to have a business, and did not wrong, but went bankrupt from a lawsuit by a gay. He won the case, but there was no money to recover for his expenses.

Poor guy.

As far as your Rip City baker goes... I guess he shouldn't have transgressed strongly-worded state law, huh?

Bummer.

Sorry. He's not from Rip City. He's east of there in Gresham.

From what I read, he lost the suit due to embarrassing the couple online instead of for their not making them a cake. The verdict was for emotional injury, not gay rights.

How we supposed to like the guys when they are even more litigious and entitled than the blacks.

:lol who is expecting you to like anybody?

And by the way what would happen if a Muslim ask the Baker to make a terrorist cake? Would he have to make that as well

You can discriminate on religious grounds. It'd have to be done by simply telling the fags "no." That scenario that avoids the intent of the law (ending discrimination) and the only way to deal with it, like you said, is to start examining each and every refusal for discriminatory intent.

---

Why does that make the law stupid? The law prevents intentional discrimination. Why is that a bad thing?

Probably, if he makes cakes for Christian terrorist groups.

Not a terrorist cake, just a cake honoring Mohammed, maybe with a icing picture of Mohammed.

Or a Jewish cake with Jewish symbols? Extremist Christians hate other religions, and don't get along with other Christian sects, branches, that aren't as extremist.

As with all the other bullshit crap Repugs and Christian Taliban invent to oppress, slander, fuck up other people, the cake-denied-ONLY-for-LGBT is fucking bullshit.

It's difficult to discern how this will play out after Obergefell v. Hodges. Prior to that case the religious argument would've very likely been the deciding factor. But now you might be looking at competing constitutional rights, with no prior jurisprudence that I know of.

Burwell v. Hobby Lobby was decided upon the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, and not the free exercise of religion protections afforded by the 1st Amendment. The RFRA only applies to the federal government, after most of it's parts being ruled unconstitutional. So the RFRA won't work in this case, it would have to go directly through the 1st Amendment claim, IMO.

The law prevents people from saying "I refuse to sell to gays." It doesn't prevent intentional discrimination.

That's a fair point. Still, what's wrong with a law that explicitly prevents you from voicing your reason for discrimination?

I never said there was anything wrong with it.
