Yeah definitely. Getting angry about sexual harassment in the work place, being upset about people not being able to use the restroom they're most comfortable, and speaking out against police corruption is the exact same as getting upset at about manhole being chanced to maintenance hole.

This makes no sense. Sexual harrassment has nothing to do with political stances and bathrooms are a similar deal because it's superficial as well. Public restrooms are just things you go in and out of as fast as possible. The signs are just suggestions, in reality there's not that much consequence if you go into the room of the opposite sex. You only really have a point on police corruption.

They didn't refuse service. They refused a specific design. You know, elementary First Amendment rights. Same reason Costco won't make a Penis Cake with icing semen.

And thanks for proving my point lol

And considering I'm literally entering into a gay marriage, you'd think I'd be most offended. But I'm not, because I don't think I should have the right to tell someone how to make something.

This.

The reason I thought the whole bathroom debate was stupid on all sides was because I've used the womans restroom a bunch of times when the male restroom was occupied or not clean. It's not against the law and if you don't act like a fucking weirdo nobody will care enough to make a stink.

They offered to bake/sell them a cake, just not with the design they wanted.

Which, you know, is completely fucking legal and fine unless you're a crazy person who can't fathom of just going to a baker who will do the design you want.

Yes, that bakery had actually served gay customers in the past. They didn't have an issue serving gay people, they refused to design a cake specifically for an event.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/baker-who-refused-make-cake-gay-wedding-i-don-t-n880061

The baker at the center of a Supreme Court ruling that he cannot be forced to make a cake for a same-sex wedding told Today on Tuesday that he doesnt discriminate against anybody and that he simply doesn't want to bake cakes for every message saying that he would also refuse to create a dessert that insulted the LGBTQ community.

Jack Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cake in Denver, had argued that his cakes are works of art and that requiring him to bake them for same-sex weddings would force him to express a view that violated his religious beliefs. And in a narrow 7-2 decision, the high court said legal proceedings in Colorado had shown a hostility to the baker's religious views.

Phillips, however, maintained during an interview with Today, that he would serve everybody.

It's just that I don't create cakes for every occasion they ask me to create, he said.

I don't discriminate against anybody I serve everybody that comes in my shop, Phillips said. I don't create cakes for every message that people ask me to create.

This cake is a specific cake, a wedding cake is an inherently religious event and the cake is definitely a specific message, Phillips said, explaining his objection to making the wedding cake for the same-sex wedding.

It's perfectly legal to refuse making custom designs period, outrageous or not.

Where in that blurb does it say anything about design of the cake. He just didn't want to make a wedding cake because it's for a Gay marriage. That has nothing to do with the design. Again if they wanted him to make a big penis shaped cake and he didn't want to do that, ok, but if it's just a wedding cake for a gay wedding then no he's just an asshole.

Got streets covered in shit, literal homeless, schools with no funding, hospitals closing down, people pissing on each other in the park, you're wondering where the money for the next bill is going to come from, your workplace is outsourcing to India to pay workers $2 an hour..

And then you check out your local news and there is a large protest about a 200 year old statue must be removed because it's someone racist with the local government nodding and agreeing.

Did you read the excerpt? He doesn't just make any cake a customer requests if he disagrees with the design, as he views each cake as a piece of art. He also said he would not bake a cake that insulted LGBT individuals. However, he does not refuse sale of any of the pre-made items in his bakery to gay people.

Please feel free to educate me and link me to an article where it talks about him disagreeing with how the cake would look at not just the fact that it would be used at a gay wedding. Because so far the only link is from Admiral and that article explicitly states that he wouldn't create a cake for a gay wedding because he disagrees with the "message".

They should be fined for discrimination. This has nothing to do with political correctness.

Discrimination? Don't make me laugh. It's not even a refusal of service. It'd be like a painter being fined for only drawing straight couples. Should everyone who doesn't accept a commission that happens to depict a protected group have to fined? Even internet artists who most likely can't afford to pay a fine and will have their life ruined for standing up for themselves?

It's literally not because the only source in this whole topic states:
