        That’s the way things should be handled. The gay couple should have taken it to Yelp instead of a court room.

        long ago a woman was told to move to another seat on a bus coz she was black. she could've just moved to another seat but she decided she's been moved too many times gay people can just as easily go somewhere else The day nobody has to move for others is the day everyone is free

        I agree but the bus was a public service. The bakery is private. I don’t feel the govt has the right to get involved. I would be right there with the protesters in front of the place making potential clients aware were I living nearby. My involvement would be a private decision.+

        When we allow the govt that level of interference in our affairs, the govt will abuse it and take more of our rights away. Turn the Right’s mantra of ‘let the market decide’ against them. There are more of us, the tolerant, in society than the intolerant. Put them out of business

        Well said @sea_stories. He has a right to deny his services but no one said he'd be free of the consequences. Present and future customers are taking note. He must be a pretty darn good baker that they'd rather force him to bake than go somewhere else!

        I wonder if they take such issue (or even bother to ask) about baking cakes for couples who are remarrying. “For I hate divorce”, says the Lord. Mal 2:16. Wonder if he asks if they perhaps committed adultery, are engaging in fornication? Just curious. Shame on the baker. Shame.

        So most of the people on this thread would have no problem with going into an Islamic Bakery and asking them to make a cake in the image of the prophet Muhammad, so they can cut it up at an anti-muslim party correct? #LiberalHypocrisy #LiberalismIsAMentalDisease

        So when the baker refused and the people on this thread went to the CCRC with a complaint, on what grounds would they be relying? Who would the baker be discriminating against?

        Me The most endangered white species, a male Catholic I want a cake with the image of Muhammad on it for my own reasons And if I told them why and they refused because it is against their religion to make an image of Muhammad, I should be able to sue them correct?

        I’m also a white male Catholic. Sunday school was a long time ago but I don’t recall insulting another religion as being a central tenet of our faith. If you asked for a cake to celebrate your son’s Confirmation and he refused on religious grounds, now you’ve got something.

        LMFAO It was INSULTING to the baker to be forced to make a cake for something he didn't believe in GET IT?! Do you think Obama forcing Little Sisters of the Poor to buy BC for their female employees was right?

        We’re entitled to our religious beliefs. Once you enter the commercial world and offer goods and services to the public there are all kinds of compelled speech laws you have to comply with along with anti discrimination laws. That being wrote I’m not unsympathetic to the baker.

        Well not according to #SCOTUS today I stand by my muslim bakery example & if this was the case I dont think we'd be hearing one word about it There's a war on Christianity and SCOTUS just made a beachhead. The govt CANNOT infringe on my beliefs and compel me to act

        Of course that’s not what SCOTUS wrote today because they didn’t need to. The CCRC was faced with two competing rights and they exhibited open hostility to one instead of considering both soberly and neutrally. That’s what SCOTUS wrote.

        It amazes me that so many people claim it's their Christian duty to behave exactly the opposite way that Christ did.
