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.


For once a typical corporate cya cocksucker does somebody some good.

Except this wasn't a business making this decision. It was some minimum wage worker making a decision for a company that she had no business making.

The girl reported it to Albertsons store management and bought her cake at another store. Management apologized for their dumbass employee.

This girl sounds okay and not trying to make a big deal out of it.

But local news is so desperate for "news" they pick it up from a teens Facebook post,

For the five years I've been back in North Louisiana, the Shreveport newscasts have all started with two or three murders. They'll report on a murder, even if they have to pull up info for one in Monroe, Lafayette, NOLA or out of state.

Bakers are probably African American


No, probably a white, liberal woman in charge. They are usually the most intolerant types (despite attacking others for not being tolerant).

Yes, that's it. I'm sure the bakery attendant was simply confused on copyright procedures. I'm sure that exactly why she didnt do it

Private business can do what it wants. End of story. If the community feels that strongly about it, said company will bear the financial burden for their stance. But I doubt that happens here.
