You are correct!

At the end of the day they get couple could have respected the bakers beliefs and walked away.
But they could respect the bakers beliefs.
It's really ironic. The whole situation.

But it will never happen that way.
Even if the SCOTUS rules against Jack Phillips and says that his creative artistry is not protected enough to refuse to make a cake for homosexuals, they will never target a Muslim bakery.
Just like the average leftist doesn't make fun of Mo-ham-head and calls him "a great profit" and with the same breath blasphemes Jesus. They won't target Muslims because they know some Muslims will declare jihad and try to kill them for it.
There may be some conservatives who intentionally call up a Muslim bakery to order something "non-Sharia compliant."
I just hope SCOTUS has enough sense to uphold the First Amendment. I really think these "discriminated minorities" like homosexuals are scapegoats being used to cause all of use to lose more of our rights.

So if the store owner was a black man and refused to make a cake for a gay couple, he would still be labeled as a bigot? I have my doubts.
7 ups, 7y
Definitely.

I doubt it as well. Also this is America. Land of the free. Not land of controlling the white guy to conform to your every complaint. Live and let live. Love and hate what you want. Spend money where you can or spend it where they take it. Also if you are a bigot, ots your right, just don’t expect good outcomes if you make your bigotry public knowledge.

This country spent the better part of the last 200 years discriminating against people with dark skin. Now that people are getting called out on it you'll are crying foul? You can't have it both ways.

They aren't just being called out on issue that happened generations ago, they're being forced to apologize a million times over for atrocities from decades ago. Grind is right you can't call a black man a bigot in this country. I had a black guy call me "boy" a few times. However if I called him that we'd be talking about the job I used to have.

Why are we talking about this? Because discrimination is still happening. This homophobic baker is just one example. The police shootings are another.

Name one semi-well known black bigot. Name one. If nobody knows him/her, it doesn't count. The truth is there are a lot of minority bigots that target their bigotry towards whites.

All members of BLM are racists.

whether or not a bigot is well known does not define whether or not they are in fact a bigot

And atop that, lets say that black people couldn't be bigots, why is that?
Is it due to black people being more open minded than white people?

You have 2 options, either accept that he was a bigot for his actions not his appearance, or admit to the hypocrisy of hill billies believing that black people are worse in every way

so which will you give up first?
Homophobia or racism?

So I'll reply to your first sentence cuz the rest is idk.

What you said is true about them being a bigot regardless of being well known. The point is that a black store owner wouldn't be labeled a bigot because he wouldn't have drawn the attention to himself the way the white store owner did. The media wouldn't have treated them the same.

That's the best you could do? Nobody knows who that is without googling him. The point is that American culture only recognizes white bigotry, which is what this chain of replies is about.

Maybe, but nobody would know because the media wouldn't report on that. Right now there is a war on whites so every opportunity to make white people look like bigots is exploited to the fullest.

That's... needlessly exaggerated. Almost sounds like neo-nazi victim complex propaganda. (I'm willing to accept that white people are generally considered acceptable targets, but a "war on whites" stinks to me of something you read on /pol/).

But it's okay when blacks are the targets? Because it's been like that for too long. Iit's not even close to the way it's been for them and you're uncomfortable. How would you like the roles completely reversed? Think about it...

The pastor/evangelist is named Joshua Feuerstein.
Did those bakers have the right to refuse to create a cake with that message on it? According to what I'm hearing from people who say Jake Phillips had no right to refuse to make a specialty cake for the gay couple, no these pro-LGBT bakers had no right. OR they don't want them to have a right to refuse service based on the bakers morals, conscience, or feelings toward the message the customer wants promoted.

You didn't really answer my question:
Where the pro-LGBT bakers being bigots for refusing him service?
You said,"LGBT bakery was entitled to refuse to bake that cake, just like Jack Phillips was entitled to do what he did."
If they were both entitled to refuse service then why post a meme earlier that says, "He's (Jack Phillips) not a bigot because he's white but because he refused them service because of who they are"???

The cake doesn't have to contain words or designs that are against his beliefs/conscience because the cake itself is the center of a celebration of a ceremony that is against his beliefs/conscience. The cake stands for something, it has meaning just like his creative artistry has meaning. Is that concept really that hard to grasp?

Since when does being a cake maker put someone on such a moral high ground anyway?

Pointless to speculate huh? So much for science.

They went down to another bakery and ultimately got someone else to make them a cake.

Suppose you owned something and didn’t want to sell it to me because you didn’t like me (news flash: you don’t!)? Would I be able to sue because you wouldn’t do business with me?
