They use publically funded roads and bridges to transport their blueberries don't they? So follow the laws or else you don't get to profit off of our nation's infrastructure.

Refusing to do business with gays just because they are gay is the same as refusing to do business with blacks just because they are black.

No one is saying you have to go and get gay married yourself, or that you aren't allowed to think it is disgusting. BUT you can't and should not be able to deny someone's business based solely on their sexual orientation.

They don't refuse to do business with gays. Gay people can buy all the blueberries they want. They refuse to host a religious ceremony on their property for gay couples.

I realize that the City has gays as a protected class and thus the ruling. I'll always disagree with protected classes though.

So what you're saying, is that we need to deport 12 million illegal immigrants? If you're going to use that logic, let's be consistent and not pick and choose which groups we apply it to. The illegals use those same roads and bridges, right?

Where do we draw the line? Are some people predisposed to be conservative, and others liberal? I think you can make a case for that. Should refusing to do business with people because they support Donald Trump be illegal?
