>The actual baker situation was denying a customer based on their sexual orientation. That type of refusal is not okay and the reason why is pretty well-established in the law. Sexual orientation (like religion, race, sex, etc) is protected from such discrimination.
This is not true. They were perfectly happy to bake a cake for gay people; they objected to baking the cake specifically for a gay wedding. The cake was to have wording which the bakers disagreed with for religious reasons.
- waterside81 5y agoYour clarification is important and I've seen all too often these past few days a critical misunderstanding of the case. The baker offered the couple any other cake in the shop and offered to bake any cake they wanted - other than one specifically for a gay wedding.
