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.
The doulbe standards in this country is sickening. Why would anyone, who is gay, even want a Christian to bake your cake? Yet, Muslim bakerys can refuse to bake a cake for a traditional wedding with no repercussions????? Welcome to Obama’s Amurika…..
Ridiculous! Private enterprise—
That is one of the stupidest decision some judge or whoever made against this business.. to fine tese people that much. And who gets all the money/ Probably the Lawyer and his lesbian clients. sShameful what our country is becoming.
Bizaro world
A wall would help. If you hadn’t heard Australia isn’t doing great with Muslims let in way to many.
I don’t think it should of gone this far I’m sure they have worked hard to make a liven like most of us here in the USA but to have to pay this overwhelming amount of money is over doing it and to run there life I don’t see any reason for that maybe a few fines but this is over doing it and why was it OK for a black Muslim bakery not fined and sued when they refused to bake one for a gay person our government just baffles me
WHAT???
WHAT ??? That’s SO STUPID !!
I thought you had to prove damages and what kind of jury would award that kind of money can you say jury nulification
Melissa may pay now but these people will pay later. These people also wanted to bring more attention to gay rights UGH.
