It is a shame they got the right decision with the wrong basis for it... It is still better than getting the wrong decision though... In reality, he shouldn't even have to justify why he refused to bake the cake. It is his own INDIVIDUAL decision... It doesn't matter if it is based on religious beliefs or not...https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/su...-gives-victory-baker-who-refused-make-n872946

not anymore since we have laws against anti discrimination, hate speech etcIt is his own INDIVIDUAL decision... It doesn't matter if it is based on religious beliefs or not...
You're right... It is more accurate to say: " It SHOULD BE his own individual decision..."not anymore since we have laws against anti discrimination, hate speech etc
i disagree with those laws but we have them
You're right... It is more accurate to say: " It SHOULD BE his own individual decision..."
That I disagree... Since I'm talking about what SHOULD be... There should be no problem with a "white" only or "black" only or whatever color there is... The should be no problem with "gay" only, or "straight" only... Anyone should be able to decide who gets in their own private business... Just like people have to decide if people carrying guns can enter a private store or not, even in states where carrying it is allowed by law...probably not
and let me explain why
he is in business, which is a public serving enterprise
if the this guy refuses gay based on religious(moral) grounds , the other one will refuse blacks based on his moral views and will put a sign "whites only", etc, etc
if it would be a private enterprise like a private club, i do not mind if they refuse anyone they want

I personally think that any restriction whatsoever would be stupid and in "my bakery" anyone would be welcomed, because it makes no difference to me if the money comes from white or black, gay or straight person... The money is the same and has the same value and I'm there to make money...
But even though I think it is stupid to refuse money based on these issues, people should have the right to be stupid(or what I consider stupid) individually...
Plus, reality shows that in a free market, these signs tend not to exist.. As Thomas Sowell once said: "People may prefer this or that color/gender/whatever, but they tend to prefer themselves above all else." But if he can sustain this model of business even so, no problem... There will always be options for all, like in "my bakery".
The thing that really made use of these signs(slavery, segragation...) for a LONG LONG time was precisely what these neomarxist idiots are constantly recurring to for their claims: government. And as it was in the past and will be in the future, this has and will continue to have dire consequences.
