LESBIAN COUPLE ACCUSES CHRISTIAN BAKERS OF MENTAL RAPE, AWARDED $135,000
An Oregon judge has awarded Lesbian couple Rachel and Laurel Bowman-Cryer $135,000 for emotional damages in a lawsuit against Aaron and Melissa Klein of Sweet Cakes Bakery. They are a Christian couple who declined to provide a wedding cake to the same-sex couple in 2013.
In their lawsuit, the two women claimed they felt mentally raped, as part of a list of 88 symptoms of emotional distress they experienced at being refused a cake.
The long list of symptoms included acute loss of confidence, doubt, excessive sleep, felt mentally raped, dirty and shameful, high blood pressure, impaired digestion, loss of appetite, migraine headaches, pale and sick at home after work, resumption of smoking habit, shock, stunned, surprise, uncertainty, weight gain and worry.
The judge apparently found it unremarkable that loss of appetite and impaired digestion should lead to weight gain.
[T]he forum concludes that $75,000 and $60,000, are appropriate awards to compensate for the emotional suffering they experienced, wrote Alan McCullough, administrative law judge for Oregons Bureau of Labor and Industries, in his proposed order.

Case should have been thrown out of court.
Since liberalism is a mental disease, it must be the constant rain that falls in so many parts of that benighted*** state which attracts so many lefties because liberals adore, cling to and revel in anything negative.
(*** "benighted" - overtaken by darkness or night.....existing in a state of intellectual, moral or social darkness.....ignorant, unenlightened, lost)

Donated yesterday. It’s a fund to support persecuted Christians - In the USA. I never thought it would ever come to this.
I seem to recall something about “excessive fines” in the Eighth Amendment.
“Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.”
Terminal ugliness, irresistible urge to lick the genitalia of other women, aversion to femininity, bad breath, hairy armpits, foghorn voice, beard/moustache, hair on knuckles, mouth-breathing ...
I’m with you. These vermin need to suffer just as they hand out suffering.
No surprise here. Another brilliant judicial ruling from the Left Coast.
LOL! I like your definition of lesbians: “Heifers in Heat”
Incomplete report no pix of “administrative judge”
The Oregonian Newspaper published this Story, so I decided to comment on their Site.
After Posting my take on this, my Comments were Deleted after being up for a few minutes. There wasn’t enough time for the Tolerant Leftist’s Posting there to argue or refute my bullet points, not that they would.
There is no room for dissent in Obamaville. If you ever wondered how the NAZI Party took over Germany in the 30’s, wonder no more.
Anybody left who holds out hope for this country?
post or link them here.
They are trying to get past that by saying the money is to compensate the lesbians for their pain and suffering, as opposed to being fines to punish the baker for their wrong thinking...
Refusing service was a clear violation of the Oregon Equity Act concerning discrimination against gays, which I don’t agree with in the first place but that is the law. Maybe the couple should put their notoriety to work for lobbying for exemptions for small/home-based businesses.

Gaystapo Takes No Prisoners: GoFundMe Torpedoes Sweet Cakes
The leftists at GoFundMe have shut down the donations page for "Sweet Cakes by Melissa". Donate to Aaron and Melissa Klein via Rev. Franklin Graham's "Samaritan's Purse" instead:
Help persecuted Christian couple in Oregon fined for refusing to serve lesbians
A Christian couple in Oregon say they will be bankrupted by a judges decision Friday to fine them $135,000 for refusing to bake a wedding cake for lesbians.

The penalty is obscenely out of proportion to the “crime.” Oregon Freepers should make it hard on the judge, Alan McCullough, who imposed this draconian fine, and picket his office every day.
Did the comments violate their terms of use (vulgar language, etc.), or did they just disagree with you?
how did they shut down a gofundme? didn’t happen when almost a million was raised for pizzeria
the answer isn’t to fund a million different cases at gofundme.
it is not sustainable. I cant donate anymore.
my funds go to Cruz FR our heroes and cousin’s thalassemia I’m tapped
bought pizza from memories to send to FD. they are thriving btw
cant do anymore
It’s All about Sex with these people
