George III could never imagine having this amount of power.

They literally micromanage peoples’ lives.

Go find another bakery.

These bakers have every right to refuse the business of a gay wedding, which violates their conscience, just as a gay baker has a right to refuse the business of a Christian customer.

Again, there are plenty of bakeries who will do business with you. Go patronize one of them.

A judgement is a piece of paper. Getting paid is a whole different story.

$2,000 is a fine.

$200,000 is designed to put them out of business.

RE:”Aaron and Melissa Klein refused to bake a wedding cake for a gay couple, and now they must pay for their crime. An Oregon administrative law judge ruled on Jan. 29 that the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa did, in fact, discriminate in 2013 when they declined to provide a wedding cake for a lesbian couple because it would have violated their Christian beliefs against same-sex marriage.”

It's not reasonable to expect them to win this fight.

This is much different than the courts ordering states to marry same sex couples which is apparently what the owner is trying to protest. That is a new reach creating a new constitutional right that never existed before.

In these cases they are basically challenging the anti-discrimination law under the constitution and it has no chance of being successful.

A Sad ending is inevitable

“You cannot discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation”

Easy argument for this... Same sex stuff isn’t sex.

sexual intercourse; noun (Websters’s Concise Encyclopedia)

Act in which the male reproductive organ enters the female reproductive tract (see reproductive system). Various sexual activities (foreplay) lead to physiological changes that progress to orgasm (climax) and resolution (see sexual response). If it is completed, semen passes from the male into the female’s body. If conditions favour fertilization, a sperm joins with an egg, and pregnancy begins (see fertility; reproduction); contraception can prevent this. Intercourse with an unwilling female is rape. See also reproductive behaviour; sexuality, human; sexually transmitted disease.

I’m so glad we live in a country that is so free that the government can compel one to bake a cake against their will. /s

According to Leftists the Constitution trumps state laws...guess that only applies to homosexual “marriage” issue.

Favorite tactic of the left...hang someone in the square to intimidate the locals.

You can't fight city hall in the courts...you can't win a stomping contest with elephants.

It requires some thought and strategy.

I would cheerfully bake that cake, just as Minny made that chocolate pie on "The Help".

...we can no longer reserve the right to refuse service?

Since Americans have a right to guns, are gun shops required to sell firearms to anyone?

Since Alcoholism is now a disability, are bars and liquor stores required to serve drunks?

The Constitution says “no law” shall dictate religion OR PROHIBIT THE FREE EXERCISE THEREOF.
