Among the possibilities is the case involving the Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, whose owner, Jack Phillips, has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review his case after a lower court ruled that Phillips discriminated against a gay couple who wanted a wedding cake in 2012.
Phillips has long claimed that as a Christian, he has the religious freedom to deny business to same-sex couples.
The Colorado Supreme Court last August declined to review the case, agreeing with a Colorado Court of Appeals decision that said the shop could continue to enforce its religious beliefs, but not while operating as a business in Colorado.
The U.S. Supreme Court could also take up a gun rights case out of San Diego in which the plaintiff argues the Second Amendment allows people to carry guns openly outside of their home, as well as a voter rights case involving voter identification and redistricting out of North Carolina at the April 13 conference. Four justices would have to vote to take up each case for a full court hearing.
Gorsuch, 49, is now the youngest Supreme Court justice, and Republicans hope that he will tip the majority back to conservatives, as was often the case with Scalia on the bench.
Not the best choices desu. Russia style laws are best. It's not illegal in private but it is illegal to push it on children or be public.

Why did the judge even rule against the cakeshop in the first place? It's his shop, he can serve or refuse whoever the FUCK he wants. The fags can just simply go to another shop, and write bad reviews about the cakeshop. It's free market. Can any burger explain to me how the fags won the case?

No child, even a child of the foster care/orphanage system, is going to prosper under same-sex parents. The traditional nuclear family is best.

50% of heteros have anal. Grab em is sodomy. Not a word that didn't exist at the time. Being gay or homosexual. But the concepts existed. Nobody knows what they're talking about when it comes to sex. And you are focussing on cakes. I don't want cakes. I don't know how to make cakes. Groups on your side sue for this sort of banning all the time and you can learn to give better head. Take care eh
Ayden Gray
Because Colorado has a state law prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. Sorta like how diners can't refuse to serve Black customers. Religion doesn't justify discrimination ( agree these laws should apply equally to all religions).

Here is a novel idea..Go to a different bakery. Next you will tell me "No shirt. No shoes. No service" is discriminatory. Why would you want someone to bake a cake for you if they despise you in the first place. The baker could shit in the batter out of anger because forced to do something he doesnt want to do. You do it because you want to dig at Christians because gays are assholes and think its funny attacking Christians

Jaxon Cox
Gays adopting has been around for less than a decade so I don't what kind of data you're looking to find on something this specific. However all data ever collected confirms biological parents are best at raising a child and that any other arrangement is a disadvantage. Pair that up with the extreme higher rate of pedophilia, child abuse, and substance addiction found in homosexuals and their insanely high rates of promiscuity and non monogamy and use your fucking head to think the consequences of a young impressionable child being raised by 2 members of the same sex and it takes someone willfully ignorant or brainwashed by modernism to not see the damage it does to a child.

Appeals to emotion to the minority of normies who went out and did something about this "injustice" and general pressure from the gay mafia. You're absolutely right, a place of business has the right to deny service to whomever it so chooses, if that person isn't a member of the flavor of the week oppressed. They love to trout out the Civil Rights era meme to attack freedom of association, when those restaurants and diners had just the same right to deny service - no matter how trivial or bigoted one may view it as.
Angel Gray

Compare that to life under abuse parents or alcoholics or criminals too and you might tell me you still think it's better than an orphanage. Thst doesn't mean I'll ever support those people getting custody of children.
Andrew Davis
But I mean we have state and federal laws that prohibit discrimination on a variety of causes. You may not like them, but they exist and will continue to be enforced unless they are repealed.

>Next you will tell me "No niggers. No spics. No japs" is discriminatory. also what you just said IS often descriminatory, though it depends on what municipal district and local laws your county or city has. but yes, the buisness area of town are public sectors and must adhere to regulations that allow the free passage of well behaved customers. the right to refuse service for any reason is like the "its not our fault clause" on a hockey ticket. the bark is far bigger than the bite, and has been for over a hundred years

I'm for civil unions that carry the same benefits of marriage on a state level, but not specifically for gays. As a Catholic, I could never condone gay marriage or even support the choices of a gay couple. I strongly believe that homosexuality is a fetish and a product of a persons environment; not necessarily a choice, but not inherent by birth. All this said, a civil union could be sought after by two bros just wanting to live together and do bro things while sharing income and responsibilities. Doesn't have to be about where you want to stick your penis.

I don't think the Colorado cake couple benefited financially. I agree it is not the best use of the court's time but if it were overturned it might allow a wider variety of discrimination for (((religious))) bullshit. I think the bakers should have offered to bake them a plain cake with no message on it and they shouldn't have sued but it is a great example of a litmus test.

Your privilege is showing.
I assume you and your partner live together? What if the landlord / previous owner decided they didn't want to have a gay couple living in that neighborhood and so they turned you down. Shouldn't the law be on your side here?
I think you're basically saying that a cake is not a big deal, sure, but for a low-budget wedding, the wedding cake might be center of the whole affair. Not having one sucks.

I have zero issue with gay people, but if you think for one second this isn't planned to make a political statement when it happens you're kidding yourself.
Even if you're ok with that, then you have to ask yourself why no one is suing muslim bakeries. Why no one is suing gender specific health clubs. And if you are all for the rights of certain groups to discriminate why aren't your for the rights of everyone to discriminate? The entire gay cake argument is disingenuous and dishonest. I live near one of the businesses that was sued and put out of business by this shit and it's one of the most liberal places in the country. These gay couples are doing it on purpose when they have, quite literally, 50+ other options in the city. If you support that you're a piece of shit.
Julian Scott

Nathaniel Ross

Ayden Peterson
Not in that case. There was another case where financial damages were awarded but not this one.
A judge previously ruled a business owner cannot refuse service to a customer on the basis of sexual orientation. Phillips appealed to the commission, but it upheld the decision.
That prompted Phillips to decide he would no longer make any wedding cakes. He said he would be fine selling cupcakes for a birthday party for someone who is gay but added, "I don't want to participate in a same-sex wedding."
The commission also ordered the baker to submit quarterly reports about the customers he refuses to serve and retrain employees to serve everyone.
Surprise! Faggots damage the children in almost every measurable area. One of the biggest is thst children raised by faggots are substantially more likely to turn out to be faggots themselves.
Really makes you think
Jayden Lopez
I stand corrected then, thanks for clearing that up.

>religious liberty No, he has the fucking 14th amendment. He can deny service to whoever, whenever, whereever he fucking wants. The government can't do a damn thing because he doesn't work for them nor does he provide a necessary public service.

i'd be happy to agree but you're offering nothing more than your own impressions. pretty sure most kids are grossed out by the idea of their parents being sexual, whether it involves two penises, or a rock-hard penis and a hot and moist vagina, two supple breasts, plump kissable lips, and long, soft, nice-smelling hair.

What part of state anti-discrimination laws do you not understand?
The Nebraska Supreme Court upheld a decision to strike down a ban on same-sex couples becoming foster parents.
The court compared the ban on its decision to "a sign reading 'Whites Only' on the hiring-office door." Since 1995, same-sex couples had been barred from becoming licensed foster-care providers in Nebraska. "This is a victory for children and LGBT Nebraskans. There are tens of thousands of LGBT people who call the Cornhusker State home and thousands of Nebraska children in need of a foster care placement," said ACLU of Nebraska Executive Director Danielle Conrad in a statement. The Nebraska rule comes as lawmakers began discussions on a bill that could ban workplace discrimination based on an employee's gender identity or sexual orientation.
Rules in 3 states the Civil Rights Act covers anti-discrimination. Conflicts with 11th Circuit ruling. Sets up Supreme Court battle.
Brayden Murphy
Sorry but homosexuals aren't stable and actually get passed around too often. You expect me to believe two of them can raise a child to be normal? Fuck off
Levi Perry
It's a win-win as far as I'm concerned.
If it's overturned, it's a big win for protection of religious beliefs in the US. If it's upheld it opens the door to pull shit like this on Jewish/Muslim operated businesses.
Luke Reyes
Why does a grown man need to tell you how to properly wash your penis and show you birth-giving videos anyway? Sex education is a stupid idea anyway and the Catholic church isn't the only entity against it. Go take your teen angst elsewhere. You can find better boobies on the internet rather than in a textbook, anyway.
