I just read an article on this. It’s fake. The whole thing was a sham used to push this through the court. There was no web designer or gay couple. I thought this was wierd when I read it, because:
- How could some petty matter make it that high up?
- How could this ever actually happen in real life, when the business can say ‘oh we’re sorry we can’t take on another job right now.’ and avoid any costly legal proceedings??? For that matter, what customer is going to hold a business legally accountable to do work? Wouldn’t they just like… find someone else who will do the work?
- A business turning down paid work in this economy? Totally BS
I don’t see really an issue with this, because in principle, any business can turn down work and not give a reason, or give a BS reason, so… nothing changed in the real world. There’s plenty of other people more than willing to do paid work.
It’s pretty bad publicity for businesses now to be labelled as ‘we don’t serve gays here’ so I don’t see how this is good for them either.
Seems to be an example of legislation that solved a problem that didn’t exist.
Apparently the guy named in the suit… isn’t gay and is married with children.
The Court is revealing it’s true colors with rulings like these. America is in for dark days ahead.
continuing the trend of christians getting preferred status
Sweet, my business no longer serves christians.
Or conservative Supreme Court justices
This literal fake case shouldn’t have gotten as far as it did but it shows the illgitamacy and partisan bullshit of these “justices”.
And yeah, those deeply held religious beliefs, like Republican racism, won’t be long until it spreads to minorities.
Are there religious beliefs out there that forbid one from doing business with another sect? I’d love to see someone use that to try and test this precedence.
