laws are not supposed to make innocent people victims. The court is wrong.

I urge people like this to sue over violation of First Amendment rights

The First Amendment TRUMPS ALL so called “gay rights” BS, including “marriage”

Three for three.....

Wealth Redistribution, punishment for Christians and a demonstration of the invincible power of our masters - all in one.

Just wait a minute there Hoss! Didn't a “muslime” bakery just refuse to bake a wedding cake for CHRISTIANS? They weren't even fined and the charges against the muzzies were dropped What's up with that? Gotta be a double standard in there someplace. Good for one, good for all. A damn good attorney (if there are any) could shoot down that standard in a heartbeat.

These owners will be lawsuited out of existence. Gay couples will now specifically target them, knowing they'll be turned down. Then the lawsuits will be filed.

That there is a “Human Rights Commission” empowered to levy fines and penalties and to seize assets without due process of law, is plenty enough rationale alone to demand heads on pikes.

Authoritative conservative politicians should make it abundantly clear that when we take charge each member of that board voting to impose the fine will be personally responsible to repay the levy.

By what authority does this unelected commission have to impose a penalty? I would think at most they might make a recommendation to the court. Or bring a civil suit.

I say why get into all that crap with the evil laws. Charge the Gays triple the price and if they pay it then donate the excess to a christian charity. Why lose a business or major profit over willful sinners. If they go elsewhere over the price then mission still accomplished,

RE: Tell the IL HRC to go stuff it.

Not sure what this businessman will get if he refuses to pay the fine.

Are they going to jail him? Bankrupt his business?

More importantly... what do these presidential candidates have to say about it?

Trump, Cruz, Kasich, Hillary, Sanders...

These gays aren’t stupid. They KNOW the normal price charged for this service and they will file suit for discrimination nonetheless.

-- I urge people like this to sue over violation of First Amendment rights ... --

I urge people to stay out of court, unless forced in. Courts are full of evil spirits and evil people, and the NOBODY with a conscience, not even the winner of a case, comes out intact.

The government and the courts are all about control ON THEIR TERMS. The first amendment means what they say, and today, that favors the homos.
