I wonder what would happen if someone went to a gay owned business and asked them to print MAGA t-shirts?
Dang you said exactly what I was thinking. (:V)
You would get a gang of fags beating tbe crap out of you.
They are worse than skinheads.
Exactly correct. This is an attack on Christians and those who uphold Christian beliefs. It's the left's way of normalizing homosexual behavior and criminalizing Christian behavior.
I cannot wait for the backlash to start in earnest.
I am not anti-gay. I think gays should be provided with many rights such as medical prerogatives provided to married couples. But I do not want gay life style to become a “protected class” such as race, religion or country of origin. Then everyone would be forced to bake a cake or take a photo that is not in accordance with their beliefs.
Print shirts of a freak show and tell the Pride Community Services Organization here’s your shirt.
So those no shirt , no shoes ,no pet signs are useless ?
Look at the product....I hardly consider Gay shirts as some kind of right and can’t consider it a loss....since you never got them and paid nothing.
I think this is an easier case than the cake. The whole purpose of the shirt was speech.
The lgbtq militants goal is to eradicate any opposition to their political and social advancement. Christian businesses are the primary targets, as they are the most powerful obstacle to forced compliance. The plan is to bombard the courts with these cases until they can crack the stronghold, with the aid of democrat appointed judges. As usual, they know that eventually, they will get the courts to turn in their favor. They are relentless in their attacks, and the opposition eventually gets weary.
With all due respect to Kentucky FReepers, how are 14th Amendment (14A) protections so difficult to understand that what appears to be a reasonably clear case of abridgment of 14A enumerated protections by local, anti-Christian state actors has to go to a state’s supreme court to be resolved?
From the 14th Amendment:
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
"The Constitution was written to be understood by the voters; its words and phrases were used in their normal and ordinary, as distinguished from technical, meaning; where the intention is clear, there is no room for construction and no excuse for interpolation or addition.” —United States v. Sprague, 1931.
I surmise that 14A protections are not being taught in Kentucky schools.
Regarding 14A protections, patriots who value their 1st Amendment-protected freedoms of religious expression and free speech please note that that Acts 22:25-29 shows that Apostle Paul claimed his Roman citizenship to get out of a flogging.
Geez, not another law suit. Those oh so tolerants just keep pushing and pushing and pushing.
If businesses don’t want to work for fags or moslems, so be it.
It's bigger than that: it's about the selfish malevolent laying murderous devil seeking dominion and glory for himself, thru proxy servants, by perverting what God has ordained and working to require submission to his rule - from kindergarten onward.
Since true believers are the only ones who truly overall submit to the Lord Jesus, and the most adamant obstacle to the devil's dominion, then as with Job, they are particularly targeted for submission. In this case saluting the flag of Sodom as it were, and which flows from idolatry.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12)
Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? (Daniel 3:14-15)
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. (Revelation 13:16-17)
I think this is an easier case than the cake. The whole purpose of the shirt was speech.
Actually, if there was ever a case yet that would vindicate an owner denying custom service based upon the expressed intention for it, then Masterpiece certainly was it.
For Masterpiece Cakeshop offered the 2 sodomites any off-the-shelf items available for sale, but refused to enter into a contract to create a special work (a wedding cake, which usually must be contracted for far in advance, and typically at very high cost) which was for the express purpose of celebrating a (out-of-state) "wedding" that was/is not only contrary to the law of God, but was also against the highest law of the state at that time (the CO constitution did not recognize any homosexual marriage).
SCOTUS should have not only ruled that CO the Colorado Civil Rights Commission discriminated against Phillip's Christian faith due its antagonism, but that regardless, Phillips had a right to refuse to be complicit in the celebration of an event that was contrary to the law of His God, as well as his state.
They are getting very close to saying that you have no right to decline a commission. Any commission.
This is very bad.

I don’t disagree that the cake case was speech. However the cake case was at least private speech. Presumably the public was not invited to the wedding. The shirt case is public speech.
The Democrats really really really want their slavery back... forcing bakers, and photographers, and florists, and shirt manufacturers to serve LGBTQs against their will... and forcing doctors, and nurses, and pharmacy employees to participate in abortions against their will... and forcing Israel to warmly welcome those American Congresspersons who work tirelessly against Israel’s interests...
Before the LAW was even given: Genesis 13:13
After the LAW was given: Romans 1:24-29
After GRACE was given: 1 Corinthians 6:9-11
