I'm certain the judge would be holding me in contempt for whipping my dick out and telling him to blow me.

She cried in the car for 15 minutes.
That's a pretty good return on her investment.

This will reach the Supreme Court.

I am starting to think gay couples are targeting these places to cause a ruckus.

The free market should sort this out on ththe bakers end.
On the customer end, I have no sympathy for snowflakes who are in a constant state of being offended. Pull your shite together and go find another baker.

I wish I could get $135k for my "emotional distress" when Reggie's wouldn't let me in for violating the dress code prohibition against "all white tennis shoes".

That's not a judge. That's a political activist in a black robe.

Maybe dumb state law, but he's doing his job
Had he ruled opposite, he'd be an activist
