Whereas Trump's staff is trying to take away his twitter account, yet come January he still gets the nuclear codes.
Hmmm...who is more blackmailable with Clinton money laundering foundation, emails that every hostile nation on earth has, or the guy who isn't owned by anybody?Johnette's Daddy wrote:CIA says Russia intervened to help Trump win election

Voting is so important that we shouldn't make sure voters are who they are and are actually eligible to vote.

Sessions will enforce actual immigration law and will fight to stop the H1B visa lies and abuse.hedge wrote:" I liked Sessions as AG; now maybe the Justice Department will find better things to do than raining down fire and brimstone on florists who don't want to cater gay weddings, or forcing men who think they are women into every female bathroom in America."
Yeah, the federal government will now be back in the business of locking up marijuana smokers, at enormous cost. Something all true conservatives like yourself can get behind, right?
Sigh...If you supply anything for a wedding, you are a participant in that wedding. Ask any friggin bride and she/he will agree. You are forcing someone to participate in an event they deem against their religion. There is no way in hell a Muslim baker would have been forced to cater a gay wedding. No way in hell.bluetick wrote:A)Grocers don't have to carry beer and B) if they did carry beer, they couldn't discriminate who they sell to based on sex, race, age*, religion, or sexual preference.

Apples and lemons. Whether you agree or not, most religions believe gay marriage to be a sin (I don't really care anymore, be miserable like the rest of us and make divorce lawyers richer). Making a wedding cake, being photog, florist, caterer, musician, for ANY wedding makes you a part of and participant in that wedding which means tacit approval of said wedding. You are forcing people to ignore religious beliefs on a VERY narrowly tailored area. They aren't refusing to serve a gay person, but a gay WEDDING. There is a difference there as long as it is extremely narrowly tailored.AlabamAlum wrote:I used to have an assistant who worked for me. Great lady. A black woman who would now be in her 80''s. She died a few years back, though.
She used to tell me of what it was like in for her growing up. Vacations were bad. Many hotels wouldn't take black folks. So, when traveling, they would try to find a black family that would take them in. It was hard, though, and they sometimes had to sleep in their cars. Restaurants were tough, too. If they couldn't find a restaurant that took blacks, they'd try to find a market so they could buy bread and meat and eat in the car.
When she was 12 she wanted a nice dress for her birthday. The department store wouldn't let them in to buy one. Had to order it by phone and pick it up in the service area in the back of the store. Wrong size, wrong color, wrong dress. No returns though, because a nigger had tried it on. If there was a theater that allowed blacks, you were relegated to the balcony. Separate restrooms, water fountains, schools, and neighborhoods. Separate but no where close to equal.
So, when you say "it's not racist, it's a bad business plan" you're wrong. It is racist and just heartbreakingly sad.
This isn't making someone sell a product he doesn't sell (like the silly kosher and Indian example). This is telling someone who sells wedding cakes that he can't sell his product to one and not the other because of his own retarded prejudices. And that's fine. Society decides the social construct we adhere to. And this is no different, and thank god we're becoming better. If that fuckhead baker doesn't want to play by the rules, he can close up shop.

This was all about forcing someone to accept you and forcing them to go against religious beliefs.
If courts don't stop it, all they need to do is make it a private club and charge a membership fee of $1.
