But not baking the cake DOES violate some public accommodation laws.
Right. That's why some of us are calling bullshit on those laws.
Bullshit is right. Nobody gave a shit about public accommodation laws until they started applying to " the gheys".
"Although majorities in both parties voted for the bill, there were notable exceptions. Though he opposed forced segregation,[36] Republican Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona voted against the bill, remarking, "You can't legislate morality." Goldwater had supported previous attempts to pass civil rights legislation in 1957 and 1960 as well as the 24th Amendment outlawing the poll tax. He stated that the reason for his opposition to the 1964 bill was Title II, which in his opinion violated individual liberty and states' rights." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964)
Title II were the Federal Public Accommodation law provisions.
So ya, some then did oppose those provisions.
