No, you want to GO to Burning Man and avoid the flying. Trust me on this. TRUST me.
At least your username is appropriate.
It works in all directions
You got me. My problem is believing “gay people are people” should be universal.
I would assume that the cakes you mention are not products that they normally offer for sale to the public. Vendors do not have the right to refuse to sell products or provide services to selected individuals based on who they are, when they offer those products or services to the rest of the public.
Yep also people who are making that comparison are ignoring that in UK and Northern Ireland there are hate speech laws, so if they were to write something racist then yes the baker could refuse. Also the reason why judge ruled how he did is because he found evidence that bakers were also discriminating against the…
If we are talking about the US (since I’m not familiar with Irish laws), sexuality is protected class, like race or gender, that is expressly protected against discrimination. Being a member of a hate group like the KKK is not a protected class. It’s not about what is put on the cake that’s at issue, it’s about who is…
It’s articulated well enough to convince me he is not against LGBT equality, it’s not a well articulated argument for why this is a free speech issue. The bakers are still free to express their opinions on the matter. What’s the concern if they sell the cake? They say they’re opposed to gay marriage and someone…
Pretty sure Janeway is anti-abortion though.
I answer no to those questions because the FUCKING CONTENT of the speech matters. “Support KKK” is unlike “support gay marriage” in ways which are obvious to normal, fair minded people. One is humiliating and horribly racist, the other is about extending existing rights to people who have been killed for who they are…
I’ll support a Christian baker, and accept that they are Christian, when they also require of their customers documents proving that the cake is for a first marriage. The baker should also lie detector test their customers for infidelity and other offenses actually covered by the Ten Commandments. Until they do this,…
Thank you for saying something that was accurate and did not just boldly ignore the fence the bear was clearly purposely put behind.
I think you win.
I see your bear, and raise you a moose family playing in sprinklers!
If you haven’t seen Schumer’s 12 Angry Men skit, it’s basically a hilarious dissection of this argument.
Just tell them they’re not that attractive and you don’t know who let them talk. Maybe if they were hotter you would listen to their opinions.
