I never got reply by a liberal as to why a employed person can disregard the employers directions to not kneel, based of freedom of expression and speech....   Yet, a cake baker is denied the same freedom of expression, etc....   I think the cake baker is a fool, but they should be entitled to be a fool.    I just mark it up under a general PC argument mentality..    You don't have to explain, just ignore what you want and call it good.    Well, President Obama said elections have consequences, they did, and will again, to the detriment of the liberal way of doing business.

“…I think the cake baker is a fool, but they should be entitled…”

And that is a,  “CHOICE”.

If  Business, makes a, ‘Choice’, on one side or the other.
They will suffer the results,  of the people that ‘choose’,  the other POV.

Bout once a month, 3 weeks, I buy a case of beer.
Always, went to one town, (Business Family owned).
Then in another town, (where I get my mail),
a store opened.  I split my business.

After about 8 months, another customer, (who I knew), was checking out, and he was talking, ‘Right’,  about current  Politics.
I said:  ‘Ya Know, have not heard, one person, saying they support  H.R.C.’
The Owner, (instead of saying nothing), said:
       “Well I  Do”.

The end result was, after I, and the other person, told other people, what he said.
The Business is now,  STRUGGLING !!!!!!!!!

But, No One,   “FORCED",    him.
It was, His, ‘Choice’.

In St. Cloud  MN, when a  Muslim Refugee,  KNIFED, people in a Shopping Mall.
A  Local  restaurant put up a  sign:
“No  Muslims Allowed”
His  Business, went through the ROOF !

So, it is a,  ‘Choice’,  it is  Not  a, ‘FORCED’, POV.

By Robert Barnes September 7  
In a major upcoming Supreme Court case that weighs equal rights with religious liberty, the Trump administration on Thursday sided with a Colorado baker who refused to bake a wedding cake for a same-sex couple.
The Department of Justice on Thursday filed a brief on behalf of baker Jack Phillips, who was found to have violated the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act by refusing to created a cake to celebrate the marriage of Charlie Craig and David Mullins in 2012. Phillips said he doesn’t create wedding cakes for same-sex couples because it would violate his religious beliefs.
The government agreed with Phillips that his cakes are a form of expression, and he cannot be compelled to use his talents for something in which he does not believe.
“Forcing Phillips to create expression for and participate in a ceremony that violates his sincerely held religious beliefs invades his First Amendment rights,” Acting Solicitor Gen


That's what I said.
Forcing someone to participate in something they don't agree with is wrong.
Maybe now that I am backed up by the government you lefties can agree.

Right?

That's the first time I've heard about the guy not getting shafted.
Or I would have posted it.

Every business owner has rights.
Consumers can frequent the business that suits them.
I'm pretty comfortable believing plenty of bakeries would happily do what they want.
But They WANTED to shove it down the bakers throat.
So, screw them.
Hooray for the baker.
