No. Nobody should be forced to attend. As we have been saying for several pages now, the law can force them to do SOMETHING, but there is always a choice. They can attend, or they can pay a fine or suffer other legal ramifications.
OK, we have different attitudes here.
If we have a clear case of illegal discrimination, that's what we have.
In this particular case, the photographer refused to do the wedding because she is personally opposed to the gay lifestyle. She SAID so.
Not me personally. Anti-discrimination laws aren't arbitrary exercises in stifling rights or freedoms, they are means of protecting rights and freedoms from those who WOULD stifle them. On the whole, I think discouraging discrimination is a good idea.
They are your piles, not mine. I speak of not discriminating against people for one reason, and you keep complaining that people are not discriminating for some OTHER reason.
