Say luh vee, no?

Fort Sumter nixes all Confederate flags, makes decision sans historian
By Barbara Boland | July 2, 2015 | 11:39 am




In a July 18, 2013 file photo shows Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, S.C. The flags of the...
The flags of the Confederacy that flew high over Fort Sumter, the site where the first shots of the Civil War were fired, have been taken down from the historic site.

The decision to remove the flags came from a directive by National Park Service Director Jonathan Jarvis in Washington, D.C. which reads: "Confederate flags shall not be flown in units of the National Park system and related sites with the exception of specific circumstances where the flags provide historic context. ... All superintendents and program managers should evaluate how Confederate flags are used ... and remove the flags where appropriate." "Shall not be flown" is the only text that appears in bold in the letter.

The site of the Civil War's first battle is clearly a "historic" one, but according to a Fort Sumter spokesperson, it doesn't qualify as a place where "flags provide historical context," local WMBF News reported.


After the initial order from Washington to remove the flags was handed down, NPS Director Jarvis provided "further guidance" the next day that put the onus for the decision on regional directors. Fort Sumter's Superintendent Timothy Stone did not reverse Jarvis' decision and the flags remain down.

"The Confederate flag has a place in national parks when it provides historic context — signifying troop movements and locations, during living history programs and reenactments, or as a part of memorials and historic landscapes," Kathy Kupper, a spokesperson for the National Park Service, told the Washington Examiner.

Yep, "consequences" have been served.

The gay couple chose to make these people pay; they didn't have to, but they chose to.

Yeah, this will certainly improve relations.

No doubt the Left will also want to enforce the laws on illegal immigration, pot smoking, and other law-breaking activities too.

Right?

Sweet Cakes final order Gresham bakery must pay 135 000 for denying service to same-sex couple OregonLive.com

Oregon Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian on Thursday ordered the owners of a former Gresham bakery to pay $135,000 in damages to a lesbian couple for refusing to make them a wedding cake.

Avakian's ruling upheld a preliminary finding earlier this year that the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa had discriminated against the women on the basis of their sexual orientation.

Bakery owners Melissa and Aaron Klein cited their Christian beliefs against same-sex marriage in denying service. The case ignited a long-running skirmish in the nation's culture wars, pitting civil rights advocates against religious freedom proponents who argued business owners should have the right to refuse services for gay and lesbian weddings.

Avakian's final order makes clear that serving potential customers equally trumps the Kleins' religious beliefs. Under Oregon law, businesses cannot discriminate or refuse service based on sexual orientation, just as they cannot turn customers away because of race, sex, disability, age or religion, the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries said in a news release.

"This case is not about a wedding cake or a marriage," Avakian wrote. "It is about a business's refusal to serve someone because of their sexual orientation. Under Oregon law, that is illegal.

"Within Oregon's public accommodations law is the basic principle of human decency that every person, regardless of their sexual orientation, has the freedom to fully participate in society. The ability to enter public places, to shop, to dine, to move about unfettered by bigotry."

Anyone know how much delicious icing 135 K can buy?

No mudslinging, folks! But you may throw delicious icing.

you are such a callous rotten human being. Cheering putting people out of business over a fucking cake. and this happened awhile back. why is it being REPOSTED? We know why. you can't go without stirring up crap

They made their choice to defy the law. Should that be without consequences?

 

[eagle1462010]

There is one alternative to fight this shit................
Fight fire with fire..........
Flood the courts with I'm offended lawsuits until they can't breath........

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.......

Never happen though.

Freedom of Religion be damned............If they are offended and don't believe and ordered to STFU......that doesn't matter........The rights of the few outweigh the rights of the many...............The court says so.........

OBEY..............OR ELSE..........That is what this case says.........

 

[rightwinger]

I don't think this country can ever have same sex marriage until we settle this cake issue

 

[Freewill]

When Jesus fed the multitude with the miracle of the loaves and fishes,

I wonder if he had his disciples screen the crowd for gays?

No fish sandwich for you!!!!!!!!

lol, fake Christianity is so lame.

I love it when the atheist left quotes the Bible doing so is so rich in hypocrisy.

They may end up owing 500,000 if it does and the supremes may throw them in jail.

Divert...........they shouldn't have to go against their beliefs..........It's a small business and they own it..............so then it becomes a public versus private property debate..........

How about this.........to avoid future misunderstandings..........they call it a members only store..........Those that shop there sign a membership form and get 5% off the cake price................Gays demand to get cake..........not a member........oh well...........Bars have been doing this for ages to avoid this shit.
