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






. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . boom !


I don't understand why this is a boom.

Is the boom the fact that the militant gays will fail to goad this baker into choosing to not bake a cake?

The boom?

He describes a couple avoiding the man's business for no reason except abject bigotry.
The government completely tolerates that bigotry.

However if the same couple, who hate the baker solely because of his religion, can contrive a scenario which the man might find too unpleasant to support (or a message too oppositional to his belief to include on a cake), they can lever that opportunity against him. They can bring the full force of their bigotry to bear on him.

They can petition the government, based on gay-rights, into shutting him down.
