The ruling was not narrow, but the decision was. It's just more deceptive language from the discredited, fundamentally dishonest news media that still can't figure out why we don't trust them anymore.

"Narrow" in legal terms means that the decision cannot be used as precedent in other cases, and that the judges' decision in this case applies only to this specific case. It has nothing whatsoever to do with how many voted for/against the judgement, so your blaming the media for being biased in this case is misplaced.

It doesn't have to set a precedent for other cases. As a stand alone case it is meaningful for the small business owner involved . I personally would have no problem baking a cake for a gay wedding, and a Christian I am not, but I do have a problem with social warriors that would take away the right of refusal from a small business owner. I don't expect to walk into a Christian, Muslim or Jewish bakery and expect them to decorate me a pagan May Day cake, and then threaten to bring a lawsuit when the owner says no. That kind of demanding behavior is childish, whether you are gay, straight, liberal, conservative or otherwise. So yes, many of us do point to the biased media for downplaying the importance of this single case. It represents that even in this overly partisan age, once in a while the Supreme Court actually does show the balls to defend the little guy (whether we agree with the little guy or not)!

You should post this to every comment here. These reactionary legal scholars are sure to try to bury it, because it interupts the flow of their astute postering.

G-G-Golly gee, I must commend you on that excellent rebuttal. Couldn't have come up with a better one myself.

- Oh, that's right, I already did.

Honey, I'm not in the obsessive habit of copying people's remarks. We'll leave that skill to gods like yourself.

I may have missed a headline there. Was it the guy with the wedding cake?

Either way, upvote - as always. :-)

Thank-you :) And yes, the owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop. The SCOTUS sided with him 7-to-1, but of course fake media has tried to downplay his victory by calling it a "narrow" win.

Wasn't there another bakery a year or so ago? I think two gals wanted a cake.

Didn't that other bakery lose, though? I forget.

There was a Christian couple who refused to cater a gay wedding and they ended up having to pay the gay couple over 200 thousand dollars.

They should have just said "Sorry, all booked up." Problems solved.

I'm not saying it would have been right, but he would have spared himself a lot of grief of he had just been booked. Personally, I have my convictions and if I was a baker I don't think I would have a problem with making a his and his cake. Not my thing and I don't have to answer for it. But a cake is a cake and business is business.
