    ...you simply can't make a "straight" case without getting into twisting the truth and spewing forth nonsense.
    Yet another "rare" example of CP name-calling. One notes the lack of a substantive response.

      Actually, I spelled out a list of your gross misrepresentations, and your OWN name calling -- "snowflake baker".

      There was no name calling on my part, Tassman. What name, exactly, did I call you?

      (And your head is rolling loose again - you need to get that fixed)
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        You do realise he wasn't talking about you, but the language that you had been using right?

          I don't think he has a clue. Maybe he's dizzy cause his head is always rolling.

            I can understand misunderstanding someone. I've done that myself on this forum too many times to recall, you'd have to be either really careless or really upset to mistake what you wrote for name-calling him. I mean its his own writing isn't it?

              So, he just needs to tell us what name I called him. I don't see it.

                True! It was just your standard mockery in lieu of a substantive response, not name-calling per se. One gets used to that from you.

So, for some precious snowflake baker to swoon at the prospect of having to create a "work of art" for a gay wedding is just a rationalisation of discrimination. Same would apply for those whose religious values are mortally offended by creating a wedding cake for a mixed marriage couple or "Christ-murdering" Jews. In all instances to refuse service to ANY couples legally entitled to marry is an offence against the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

                  Would you force a portrait artist to paint a gay couple?

                    So, just your standard big fat lie on your part. Good job!

                          You're either lying about him having name-called, or you're so thick you haven't realised he was citing you.

                          • So your previous argument that decorating a cake was not "art" was just a ruse. You would force artists to create art on demand even if they did not want to. Basically if a German NAZI went to a portrait artist and demanded a painting of Hitler, you think the artist would have to accommodate him.

                            Your understanding of the CRA is completely ignorant. Why don't you go read it?

                              Unless you prefer monumentally stupid, yes.

                                A Cake shop is a place of public accommodation under the Civil Rights Act. The Law states that a baker has to provide full service to all customers regardless of his personal prejudices.

                                I prefer you to acknowledge that you have no valid argument, as is patently obvious.
