Sweet Cakes by Melissa, who refused for months to pay the penalty levied against them by Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian because they could not bake a wedding cake for lesbian couple, Laurel and Rachel Bowman-Cryer, finally paid, $136,927.07.
One has to say it, maybe this payment will just make the cry babies stop crying. It is literally “shush money”.
Truth and Action reported, “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.”
It is pretty certain that the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa have hurt feelings too, as their life savings, their love of baking and their good name have been sullied by whiners who were unwilling to compromise and shop somewhere else.
Bullies hurt feelings and the bullies in this case are not the Kliens, but Laurel and Rachel Bowman-Cryer. Follow up on the development on the next page.
I am a 60 year old gay male who was raised by the Pentecostals. I have some knowledge regarding both sides, however, I only have one point to make. Christian business owners have been providing services for “sinner” people since the dawn of individuals owning their own business. The part I do not understand is why do they seem to limit their discrimination to gay people. Is it because we are so obvious? When a straight couple comes into this bakery for their wedding cake, does the owner say … Have you had an abortion? Have the two of you already been having sex? Do you honor your father and mother and keep the sabbath day holy? Do you lie, steal, or have you ever killed anyone? Do you drink, smoke, or do any illegal drugs? NO, they do not bother with any of that. Just go ahead and put a sign in the window declaring … THIS IS A CHRISTIAN OWNED ESTABLISHMENT. SINNERS STAY OUT! And my point? If you are taking a stand for God and are using the Bible as a basis for who you will do business with and are against sin … BE AGAINST ALL SIN.
That’s wrong.
Ruined peoples lives over a crybaby that couldn’t go to another store.
