Wow, I stand corrected, and am surprised to hear that.

Yes. You have to stand up, forcefully, to these bullies every time and not show one sign of fear. I’m afraid that too many people do these days.

Good ideas .

Maybe we need to go to their websites, find their queer owned businesses and then ask them to print anti queer posters, go into their bars , their places and wear traditional marriages or it’s not broken , it has worked why change it to a few shirts etc.

Once we sue, we get the money and it goes back into fighting them just like they do to us and the rest of the country.

They know most do not accept their agenda, they know most never will so they use PC , lies and get into positions of power like judges to make laws.

you ever seen muslim websites, queer websites etc?

They give their followers info on where to go, where to move into town to take it over quietly, where to do business, how to sue, what judges and lawyers are on their side, what paperwork they need , what and where their advocates are.

Now imagine if Christians had sites like this and was told where to sue to get money and what to do with that money they win?

They have most of the pro cross dressing queer media so they know their sites will never be exposed and don’t rely on phony conservatives like Hannity who will never mention conservative social issues.

I believe you are right. I remember a similar case in New Mexico, and the New Mexico law made it very clear that “We Reserve The Right To Refuse Service To Anyone” is another way of saying, “I want to go to jail”.

Now, is that right? Absolutely not, and I think any of the Founders would be shocked and disgusted by our nation. That was why, even as a young child, I was confused when the civil rights movement said people had to do business with other people regardless of the desire to do so. Although my parents were strong supporters of full rights for blacks, they also could not imagine a world where a business owner HAD to do business with anyone.

I’ve got a part of my house that could easily be converted into a 2 room apartment, providing inexpensive housing. I will NEVER do so. Why? Because I cannot tell someone, “I don’t want a couple of faggots having sex under my roof.” The moment I said that, I might as well hand over the keys to my house, because when the law was done with me, they would own my house.

See my tagline? That is exactly how I feel.

“I didn’t do the cake because of my convictions for their lifestyle. It is my right as a business owner. It is my right, and it’s not to discriminate against them,” said Childress.”

No it isn’t. The tools used for smoking bans are now just being used against you. As a private business owner, it is not your right to chose a target market. You can even thank a few FReepers that celebrated the trampling of that right.

An Iowa baker who politely declined to provide a wedding cake for two lesbians based on her Christian values may face legal action from the couple.

WTF??? Hey LESBYS, this is America, businesses can REFUSE to serve you!! If you don't like it...go to the GAYELLOW PAGES and find a baker who'll do your wedding cake!!

I believe BUSINESSES can refuse service, unless ZERO demanded a law on businesses got to serve EVERYONE!!!

Bake the cake lady, and don't forget the eggs, butter, sugar or milk:
