Of course, the individual that was rejected can use the free market composed of that business's peers to let everybody know that business is bigoted as frick and not to give them their money.

This happened in liberal land Oregon and a town there used the free market and cut off the business to customers and profits through peaceful means and not using gov't force. It's impossible for a business to have any recourse against the free market without the force of the state.

There should be no protected class laws forced on the private sector at all. It should only apply to the public sector in activities, buildings and professions that are publicly funded.

Bottom line here, to deny people property rights means to turn people into property owned by the state.


So if you are gay, don't live in small social conservative town, USA. In many small towns, their isn't much of free market.

If a baker in AZ doesn't want to bake the cake, they do not have to. The bill was written to solve a "problem" that doesn't exist there. The states where people have sued bakers for not baking cakes were in states that did have laws that prohibited businesses to refuse service.

They can bake their own damn cake. It's not up to others to provide all services for you on your demand as you like. Private business comes at great cost to start and operate for the owner. The gays that sued didn't pay a dime but demanded like Veruca Salt.

We'll never reach our full potential as a nation until everyone has the ability to buy a cake in any town in the USA!!!

Question - a gay couple in Roosterpoot, AR is planning a ceremony and decides to go to Little Rock to get their cake. They don't like the local baker because he displays Bible stuff in his store, even though he is more than happy to sell them a cake. Should laws be passed restricting how far someone can travel to buy a cake?
