Sweet Cakes by Melissa, the bakery renowned for standing for one’s religious beliefs, is refusing to pay the $135,000 fine levied by the Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian.
The gay couple who refused to take their wedding cake order elsewhere, filed suit against the Kleins, when their religious convictions about gay marriage hurt the feelings of Laurel and Rachel Bowman-Cryer. Read more on page 2.
Right on! civil disobedience at its best. We need to shut this System down at every turn. If the hippies did it for fun and pleasure how much more should we do it for freedom and the future.
If you discrimate against customers, you should pay for the error of your ways. If you have to discriminate, you shouldn’t be in business.
I am the SUPPORTIVE mother of a gay daughter…and I SUPPORT THEM!! It’s their right, the couple can go to any other bakery. Or had someone else get the cake, if it was that important a detail! This is WRONG legally, and morally not for individuals to judge. Right to refuse service applies!
Crystal again…you honestly believe that you have a constitutional right to discriminate? Sweet Cakes opened a business in a state that does not allow discrimination based on sexual orientation….and then they broke that law.
Again I have to point out that you are a woman arguing for the right of people to discriminate…..there is no irony there.
Mark pitassi, Christians have And are currently advocating and killing gays. Think before you speak, calling others idiots when you do not know what you are talking about proves you are the idiot. Here, I will give a few links I’ve found. That way you can see that you “Christians” make things bad for ones like me. Also so you can be somewhat educated.

Legal court clerks don’t have to give out licenses to marry, and is allowed to find ways to skirt around the judges orders, a BAKERY can deny a cake order!!
It’s not discrimination. It’s my right not to be forced to commit sin by the government. It’s your right too.
Read the Constitution and get back to me. Geez…
How is this legally wrong if the Bakery broke an anti-discrimination law?
