Albertsons in Bossier refuses to write Trump 2016 on a cake

If a private bakery on the West Coast is sued and forced to bake a cake that goes against their religious beliefs, shouldn't Albertsons be making cakes with whatever damn candidate someone wants to put on there?
ETA: I'll all for allowing a business to choose what they would like to do in their course of business...but consistency needs to be constant.

Gill's excited about voting in her first Presidential election. Not only does she want to share that excitement with her friends, Trump 2016, is the theme for her upcoming party.
"Trump is just someone I really look up to," said Gill.
When she and her Mom went to order her cake at Albertson's on East Texas Street in Bossier City, they weren't expecting the reaction they got.
"We just need an American flag cake with Trump 2016 on it, and right when I said Trump the lady just (makes face) kinda Trump? And she was like I can make you a flag cake but I'm not going to write Trump on it," explained Gill.

She probably couldn't spell Trump.

Impossible. The polls tell me that no young women love trump.
They all Love that withered, hacking crone.

Some other bakery will get her business now. All for businesses making their own decisions.

They need to bring lawsuit just to get it before a court and get a ruling.

If Trump finds out about this story he'll probably rant about it on the debate stage when the moderator ask him about foreign policy.

Misunderstanding

Albertson's statement says their cake hag was misunderstood. They say she refused because she had been trained not to infringe on copyrighted phrases.
They said they would be happy to provide the cake as requested.

If I were selling cakes, I wouldn't care if someone wanted to put "I love big hairy balls in my mouth".. If they are paying customers who gives a shite?

If you make them do it there will probably be a dump in that trump cake. IWNE
