When they come for your business next, what will you do?

We'll fight.

I have used similar arguments on newspaper message boards, and liberals always reply that such-and-such a group (Nazis, Tea Party members, Republicans, oil companies, Sarah Palin) are not protected groups, and that therefore discrimination against them is both moral and legal. To which I reply: so you therefore equate legality and morality, and you admit that gays DO have rights that others don’t have. And you also deny conservatives the freedom of conscience that you demand for yourselves.

Interesting question. I don’t know. The woman my aunt adopted was about 20 years younger, having actually been the daughter of her same-age friend, who had passed away leaving the daughter with no family.

Nobody would ever be able to eat a cake that I was forced to bake. I might accidentally make it with salt instead of sugar, but that would be an inadvertent error. You know sugar and salt are pretty much identical in appearance.

And in the following litigation, my FRiend, you would be found guilty of a "hate crime" by some progressive black robe and jury :-(

Me, I'd bake the cake but those little round blobs ain't raisins and the big ones aren't sugar plums.
