I feel no pity for them. None. Zip. Nada. They brought this on themselves and now they can live with it.
Am I against the LGBT community? Nope. But I am against idiots that want to force themselves onto people when a LGBT bakery would have LOVED to have had their business. Why not support them with baking their cake? Why MAKE someone go against their own beliefs with a lawsuit?
I second this. How did going after those on the other side of the situation help those who stand on their side? It didn't. All that it did was make their side of the situation an even more hated camp.
Blowing out one candle will not make another one shine brighter.

Why should they be forced to seek out a business that follows the law and would accommodate them? Why can't they enjoy the same high level of service this business offers to every other customer?
What if your standard applied to motels and the customer was Black? What if the business was a hospital and the injured was Islamic? Should this nation allow public businesses to treat customers differently because of who they are? These women came as paying customers. Their money is just as green as anyone else's. Yet there are some misguided Americans who stil believe that some American customers are not worthy of doing commerce simply because they are different.
If a drunk, belligerent person entered my shop, I would tell them to get the **** out. Its MY shop. I PAY the rent, the utilities, the employees, the overhead. ME. Nobody else. It's MY right to say GET THE **** OUT.
They asked for the cake to be made. The bakers said no. End of story.
Now....go in a muslim cafe and ask for a pork sandwich. Instead of going to the cafe next door that serves pork, you want to FORCE the muslims to go against their religion and DAMN IT ALL TO HELL THEY WILLLLLLLLLL MAKE YOUR PORK SAMMICH...or else!!!!
Get it now?
