No. On grounds of message whatever the sexuality of person asking for the message.
yes: message is part of service
No. They don't offer a service writing any message at all.
Ask me to write "race mixing is white genocide' & I will say 'no.' I don't offer cakes bearing that message.
that message has different status under law
No, I don't think so. People are allowed to say that.
incitement to racial hatred? No.
You can call it that but by law people are allowed to make that argument. And they shld be. So we can argue back.
Your argument seems to be that freedom of expression should only be allowed to those expressing views you approve.
eg I would not write something supporting homophobia, misogyny or racism no matter who asked me.
but they are limited by law. They incite hatred. Message on this cake is pro rights under law.
OK. I'm not writing anything supporting genital mutilation whether its legal or not.
I would not fight very hard for that right, clearly but the principle remains the same
The principle that you can force ppl to express views they oppose? I oppose that principle.
they are not expressing it.
Yes, they are. Writing is a form of expression even you are forced to do so. Which is why you shouldn't be.
Are you consistent on this? Must Muslims be forced to depict Muhammad if they offer images on cakes?
