You just feel that their message was more hateful. You know DAMN well that if a gay baker in Oregon turned down a cake for a patron that said "Gay Marriage Is Wrong", the lefties like you would be all over it as a hateful message. And the courts would likely agree with you. That's the double-standard today. The court in Oregon, in my opinion was wrong in their decision.

The big difference is that the Oregon bakery was asked to provide the exact same cake -- a wedding cake -- but it refused only when the couple getting married was a lesbian couple. So it's clear there was a double standard at work. In your "gay baker" hypothetical, the situation is lots murkier because you're talking about an individualized message on the cake ("gay marriage is wrong"). I address this situation on the other thread at page 6 at 6:29 (http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/75/460001.page). If your "gay baker" hypothetical was a true apples-to-apples parallel -- where the gay baker simply refused to serve any cake at all to the Christian buyer -- I'd totally agree with you that the gay baker would be violating the anti-discrimination law.

They did say they would serve gay people that come there to eat, just refuse to cater at a gay wedding.

But people who don't like what they said are naturally going to twist it make it even worse in their minds and are outraged that they don't serve gays period. Listen up, that is not what they said libtards. Be mad at their unwillingness to cater if you must, but don't make out like they said more than that.

I'm not religious but I can understand their not wanting to cater a gay wedding. I think it's a stupid part of the Bible (like many parts of the Bible obviously are) but they strongly believe the Bible is the word of God. But it's their belief and it's their right to believe in it.

And get this, there are already threats of burning the place down appearing. Liberals love to march. Liberals holler for tolerance but it's a one way street with liberals. Tolerance should mean allowing them to follow their belief in this instance and not have to cater.

Reminder, they are willing to serve to gay people. Thati s flying over the heads of some liberals.

But that is not good enough for you, they've got to be willing to cater for a gay wedding also. You've got to have it all. If you don't get it all you'll protest and shut the business down. That's how you roll.

That pizza business is within it's rights to refuse to cater for a gay wedding if it were asked to. So you have no right to shut their business down. Anyone who goes and blocks their doors needs to go jail. And those who threaten them by phone or internet or in any other way need to be tracked down by the police.

Your question is based on a false premise. Nobody here believes that a gay individual's rights are more protected by law than a Christian's. If anything, Christians have more legal protection because discrimination based on religion is more widely prohibited than discrimination based on sexual orientation. In a state like Oregon, Christians and gays have a right to expect the same service from companies. They have equal protection, so neither's rights are more protected.

Sure they do. Otherwise they would they would not be essentially crucifying Christians for exercising their religious rights.

Know why leftists are bullies? Fact is not on their side, so they have to resort to nasty tactics. Shame it works on so many people.

Yeah, we are such bullies. Bullying our way into the courts and desegregating schools. Bullying our way into lunch counters and desegregating restaurants. Bully, bully, bully. How dare we stand up for people who you treat unfairly.
