You are simply ignorant of the argument but still want to be taken as seriously as the "gospel Truth" simply because you are on the right wing.Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Well the issues is she wants to post "no same sex wedding policy" on her website. So the issue appears what she wants to post and not they are wanting her to post same sex wedding pictures.
I would say that there is no need for her to post such a policy. It is discrimination. Does she have the right to refuse to accept a job from a same sex couple. In my opinion yes. She could overcharge them or just tell them that it is a problem for her because of her beliefs. I cannot believe anyone who is planning a wedding would not just walk away from her business. They are not going to try and maker her do it.
It seems they are trying to frame the argument in such a way that it sounds really bad
They have made others do it "or else" in other cases.
NY's law is more than likely far more restrictive because NY is currently 100% controlled by progressives.
from the lawsuit that was filed
Specifically, New York laws require Emilee to create photographs and blogs celebrating same-sex marriage because she creates photographs and blogs celebrating opposite-sex marriage. The laws also prohibit Emilee from adopting an editorial policy consistent with her beliefs about marriage. And the laws even make it illegal for Emilee to post statements on her business’s own website explaining her religious views on marriage or her reasons for only creating this wedding content. N.Y. Exec. Law § 296.2(a) (forbidding statements that someone’s “patronage” is “unwelcome, objectionable or not accepted, desired, or solicited”).
The key is her editorial policy vs the law which forbids statements that discriminate
now I do not believe that the law requires her to place on her website pictures celebrating same sex marriage
yes it does forbid statements placed on her website that ays she will not create her art based on discrimination.
The lawsuit continues to say that
Emilee faces these risks each day she runs her company. She has already declined to respond to several requests to photograph same-sex weddings.
And New York has already punished other business owners for holding Emilee’s beliefs about marriage
It does seem that they did nothing to her based on that statement.
this is an effort to remove the gender identification issues from the law and they are using her as the poster girl for this effort. I really like to see what did they do that caused her to file this lawsuit other than limit overt statements of discrimination. This law provides discrimination on race. Does that mean she has to have pictures of Asians, Hispanics, Blacks, Indians, etc, etc
So if a couple does ask her to take photos and she says no and says that because they are same sex she will not do it. yeah there might be a problem if they push it.
To me she is being bankrolled by others who want to challenge the same sex issue
Emilee Carpenter Photography v. James - Complaint.pdf (adflegal.org)
To me this is an issues of can you be overt about it and deny someone based on discrimination of sex, race, religion. etc. Making this an issues because of beliefs of a wedding photographer is a publicity stunt
There would be no need for this "publicity stunt" if people weren't pushed to do things they don't want to do.
The second the activists find out someone has a religious objection to SSM, they get flooded with requests for such services to create complaints.
Maybe but is there a easier way to handle it.
other than to state the obvious reason for not handling it. She operates a business. There are other less obvious ways to turn down a request other than just says it against my religion. IF they flood the business then it is up to the flooder to prove discrimination.
ultimately she filed the lawsuit claiming religious beliefs as the basis. The first part of the lawsuit goes into her artistic feelings about her art.
Why should a person have to lie in a free society?
Well free society does sound nice but in reality a society is never totally free. When people have different opinions then you should be able to express them. In order to keep it civil any society has laws which has to limit that freedom.
When two freedom clash which one is the incorrect one or are they both the right ones?
Free for who, that is the question? Does a free society go both ways? I can accept her desire to not want to do it but she should do it in a non confrontational manner. So, yeah in a free society is is sometimes easier just to lie if it is for a good reason and avoiding hurting the other person or to avoid confrontation.
Still to lie in order to spare someone feeling is not that bad.
What is more burdensome, a Same sex couple having to find another baker or photographer, or a baker or photographer having to go against their moral code or face either tens or hundreds of thousands in fines or damages, or leaving the trade/profession they desire?
The PA laws put into place to fight racial discrimination weren't about hurt feelings, they were about removing systemic economic discrimination, of which things like lunch counters and water fountains were symptoms of the greater issue, not the greater issue themselves.
The problem we have is one side doesn't accept anything but total capitulation.
How about just saying "I am busy" instead of posting on your website that you do not take photos of same sex marriages. Then recommending another baker or photographer. Instead of bringing a lawsuit for the clear purpose of overturning a law that has been in the books since the 50's. Granted the law was amended to include same sex couple a couple of years ago.
There is no winner in this game. The desired outcome should be understatement on both sides. How about being civil about it and agree to disagree. Allow both sides to go about their business without discrimination. Can people agree that other people also have rights.
Overt discrimination between people should be dealt with. IF the baker or photographer refuses to sell there product based on sex, race, religion or political preference, then that is wrong. Seems to me it would be negative publicity. Granted it could also get them business from like minded people.
She shouldn't have to. Why is there such a need with progressives for 100% compliance OR ELSE with their social views?
Ask the baker in Colorado how far being civil gets you.
Not all states have the same laws.
Colorado has some anti discrimination gender laws but a baker can probably get away with it on the state level.
you ask why should she have to. I can only assume that it is the law in that state. If she doesn't like it then move to another state that does not have that law. There are a few.
The question should be why do people have to be subjected to discrimination?
Everyone has social views. It just you have to be civil about it in public because rights do not exist solely for one person in a public venue.

My question is why should government get involved if the discrimination isn't systemic or government mandated?
And to me the people suing over this should also be trying to get the courts to specifically define a public accommodation.

well interesting case
The opinion also noted differences in handling previous exemptions as indicative of Commission hostility towards religious belief, rather than maintaining neutrality.[29] Kennedy's opinion noted that he may have been inclined to rule in favor of the Commission if they had remained religiously neutral in their evaluation.[30]
Their opinion is limited and just says that they didn't remain neutral. Saying that the commission was to hostile. So the law itself did not deemed the law wrong but the way this particular case was handled.
State actors like the Colorado Civil Rights Commission on the one hand must ensure neutral and respectful consideration of claims for religious exemptions from anti-discrimination laws which are made by people who exercise their First Amendment right to free exercise of religion.[38][34] However, this exemption won't apply broadly in the future because future disputes like the one in Masterpiece "must be resolved with tolerance, without undue disrespect to sincere religious beliefs, and without subjecting gay persons to indignities when they seek goods and services in an open market."[39] The Supreme Court also specifically made it clear, on the other hand, that gay Americans are also entitled to strong defense rights
My question is why should government get involved if the discrimination isn't systemic or government mandated?
They got involved because a complaint was made. The court definitely side step the issue with saying that the commission must ensure neutral and respectful consideration of claims? So if the commission remain neutral in their decision then the results may have been different.
So is it just an issues of how it handled. The court also suggest tolerance on both sides.
Still the court comment about undue disrespect to sincere religious beliefs is vague.
Still the bible does teach tolerance and to respect everyone.

They’ll just make sure any judges are homosexuals.NY will lose this one. The morons don't have any sense.This case is a bit different than the others, because NY's law is far more invasive than the others being enforced in other States.
Christian wedding photographer sues NY over nondiscrimination law
Emilee Carpenter filed a lawsuit against New York attorney general Letitia James (D.) over state nondiscrimination statutes that Carpenter said compel her to violate her religious beliefs about traditional marriage by making her publicize photos of same-sex weddings on her website. The laws require her to create photograph collections on her website celebrating same-sex weddings because she celebrates opposite-sex weddings. Violating the laws could result in tens of thousands of dollars in fines, the state taking away her business license, or even jail time.
The statutes also forbid Carpenter from publishing any sort of editorial stance explaining her religious beliefs about marriage on her website. Carpenter said in an interview that her beliefs are inseparable from her work as a wedding photographer and that the laws are violating her First Amendment rights.
“My faith has been really integral to me as a person but also to my business and the way I operate it and the artwork I create,” Carpenter said. “My faith is really the lens through which I view my art.”
So not only does she have to photograph the weddings OR ELSE, she has to post pictures from said SSM ceremonies on her website OR ELSE, and cannot post anything about her religious beliefs on the matter OR ELSE.

What rights are being violated if a business owner refuses service to someone?
If you refuse service because of a dress code, or obnoxious behavior then it is legit for a business owner as long as it applied consistently to all patrons. So business owners can control some aspects with a company policy.

It's great that that you and I agree on most things Kilroy2Because someone disagree with same sex lifestyle is not a valid reason to not provide service if your a business open to the general public.
Again you don't see the difference between a spiritual marriage between male/female partners as opposed to a same sex couple getting married. But many people do, and have spiritual beliefs they cannot be forced to change or violate.Everyone has social views.
