A business serving the public who refuses service based solely on their bigoted beliefs does have a quantifiable impact on society. Shut up and bake the fucking cake.
How about you fucking make them yourself, tough guy.
Oh i forget, pussies like you need someone else to do their dirty work. You go running to government to be the big meanie. What a twat.
And one baker does not have an impact, short of hurt feelings.
If I owned a bakery, I would. Unfortunately, I can't boil water without burning it. I'm not a cook. One baker probably wouldn't have an impact, and if it was the only one in the country who would deny service, there probably wouldn't be a problem. We both know that is not the case.
Only one in the country isn't the standard one looks for. One looks for systemic discrimination. THAT impacts commerce, and the ability of people to get the products they want. In these cases there is no majority of bakers denying people cakes, and no actual harm, only a few minutes of a person's time, and hurt feelings.
Let the market handle this, not government.
We both know it wasn't the only one in the country. If the ruling had been different, there would be a lot.
So? How does a baker not wanting to make a cake for a gay wedding in one area impact the rights of someone in another?
Systemic discrimination is local in nature, even if endorsed at a higher level. You are not grasping the concept.
I would say you were grasping, but it's obvious you aren't even trying to make a reasonable argument.
