Disagree. If the cake shop is publicly traded, fair enough. If the couple could not shop anywhere else, fair enough.

Otherwise, why do I HAVE to make you a cake? Do you have a right to this cake? Even if it causes me distress? Why is your distress more important than mine?

I would not patronize a shop that made that choice, but I don't feel comfortable taking the choice away just because I disagree with it.

So it would be ok to not bake a cake for a black family because the owner happened to be racist?

I suppose, but by the same token using the gay/cake shop analogy it becomes discriminatory.

I'd like to know the cake's view on this meself.

I don't eat cake, but I know those supermarket hand-crafted ones that look dead nice....I'll bet some gay added the currants, or switched the hobart mixer on, or even supervised those that did...Or had some involvement, somehow.

Think I'll stick to biscuits.

Poor donald...

And poor 'murica - If you folks don't see how 'mussolini' he is.

By that, I mean in his demeanour/manner/oratory.

Am I the only person notices how he waves his hands about (As bliar used to) but the way he makes a ring with his thumb and forefinger while he's harping on...Or points upwards, with his thumb splayed out?

And the way he puckers his gob? Ok, in a not so Mussolini fashion, with the bottom lip protruding, it's still a sort of trademark grid, though.

At first, I honestly thought he was the alternative to the mainstream. The 'Stick it to the man' , or the 'We're fed up with the wall street owned politicians' (Which is what you'll get with hillary)

But he's just a beaut.

Is it ok morally or should a business owner have the right to refuse business for personal reasons?

The former, of course not. The latter? Yes, I think so, given reasonable limits - it should not be allowed for businesses that arr required services or receive any public benefit. I'm generally against legislating morality on a personal level.

But I admit I emotionally believe otherwise - I just intellectually refuse to be inconsistent in my arguments. I believe people should be allowed to be stupid and selfish legally, so long as it is not backed by the government.
