Um... I don't think I've weighed in on any NFL issues here.

quote: ORIGINAL: tamaka quote: ORIGINAL: Lucylastic quote: ORIGINAL: tamaka FR... It's kind of funny that the same people who think that NFL players don't have to kneel for the US flag think everyone should have to kneel before the rainbow flag. what a bunch of bullshit. should have to kneel before the rainbow flag???where? when? do you ever have a coherent thought? It's just way above your head to comprehend. so you have nothing to offer up as an example, thankyou. I didnt think you were capable. well I knew you are incapable, I tried to give you a chance... I should stop doing that, LOL

tamaka -> RE: Are cakes art? (9/24/2017 10:56:31 AM)
I think i said it wrong. I mean that it is supposed to be okay to dishonor (for lack of a better word) the US flag but it not okay to dishonor the rainbow flag.

But it is expected to be able to provide the entire menu to all customers. And since it refuses, we have a case.

So a Chinese restaurant has to serve hamburgers? [8\|] I don't think Muslim food (I'm assuming you mean Muslims and not Arabs who don't practice Islam) includes pork. If you are talking about an Arab owning a Subway or a hot dog stand, then chances are people will be expecting pork, so the Muslim in question should avoid owning these types of places. It isn't inherently discriminatory for an Islamic restaurant to serve Islamic food. Maybe they do have beliefs, but their beliefs are irrelevant here because of what they are offering. People go there because they expect that type of cuisine the same way they go to a Chinese restaurant because they expect that type of cuisine. It's about the FOOD, not the religious beliefs. You don't go into a restaurant and start demanding things that aren't on the menu. The baker is practicing discrimination because he offers all kinds of cake designs to all kinds of people... except homos, because he finds them disgusting. Even calling it a Christian bakery is discrimination, because his views don't represent the whole of Christianity. He would have to call it a homophobic Christian bakery, I guess.

Well, in a lot of ways, yes. I can't burn your flag without consequences, but I can do what I please with mine.

You don't know my neighbors, or what they will or won't let me shove up their asses.

If you are in a business where your religious beliefs prohibits you from complying with the law, then you need to find a more suitable business. Discrimination in housing and essential services is prohibited by law. Discrimination in a private business that isn't an essential service is up to the owner. Essential services deal with housing, food, and utilities. Wedding cakes are not essential services. It doesn't mean that it isn't a dickhead thing to do, refusing to bake a wedding cake, but it isn't something protected by law. If a law were that intrusive; a kosher or halal resturant could be forced to serve pork despite their religious objections. The wording of anti discrimination laws enacted by states after the Fair Housing Act of 1968 vary in specifics but in general follow a consistent thought. You cannot discriminate in provision of housing, utilities, or food based on race, national origin, makeup of family, or disability.

And the State of Colorado added sexual orientation to their protected classes you can't discriminate against. Does a wedding cake count as food?

quote: ORIGINAL: JVoV And the State of Colorado added sexual orientation to their protected classes you can't discriminate against. Does a wedding cake count as food? Luxury baked goods aren't essential. Bakeries, confectionery stores, liquor stores, are in some states included and other states not. The federal law doesn't mention sexual orientation but the "makeup of household" as one of the protected classes not to be discriminated against makes same sex domestic relationships protected under law. It is the same provision that makes it unlawful to refuse housing if a renter has children. But, pets are not a protected class. <take that, crazy cat lady that wanted to rent my extra bedroom>

Aren't corporations considered people under the law? yes and no, the courts cant hear any cases regarding your rights as flesh and blood woman or man, and then only those where you claim to acknowledge the jurisdiction, which effectively you declare yourself under their corporate jurisdiction, since the US and states are all trust/corporations as well, and subject to their corporate law. More like distrust corporations in the real world. Hence the constitution because your rights extend beyond the ~~rights~~ OOPS granted 'authority' of state by the people. Take note of how silent it gets when a properly framed issue is laid in their laps? So you think that when you go into business you waive all your reserved rights is that it?

JVoV -> RE: Are cakes art? (9/24/2017 1:32:28 PM)
When you decide to go into business, you do so acknowledging the laws and codes necessary for your business, in your community & state. And you stay on top of major changes to those laws.
