This will be celebrated, but if bakers have to bake cakes for gay weddings then Cracker Barrel can't turn this guy away either.

I support businesses being able to deny service to whomever they wish, but unfortunately liberals are destroying that freedom.

But sexual orientation is a legally protected class in many places; potential murderous psychopath hasn't made the legally protected class list quite yet.

They refused to let the church use the Cracker Barrel for an event, not him individually.

They refused to host his meeting because of his comments in a sermon. And he is the pastor.

The key is that Cracker Barrel isn't refusing to serve him because of his status in any protected class. That is what the "refuse to serve" cases come down to for better or worse.

Yeah conceal. That's the point, so you don't make every other customer run out the door screaming for their lives.

Cracker is right about this, how the frick do they know your intentions?

Even in the wild west towns made newcomers turn in their weapons while in town... because who the frick is this guy? Nobody knows...and nobody knows you.

Even in Alaska, the modern wild west, you can conceal and open carry but every dumbfrick who open carries into a Mall gets told to leave because he's scaring people.

He says under the government they should be tried and executed, not vigilantism, which is correct Christian doctrine and in accordance to biblical law whether people accept it or not.

The New Testament condemns homosexuality (Romans 1). Jesus affirmed Moses and so did Paul. Jesus even quotes Leviticus (it’s where love thy neighbor comes from). There is no logical reason to think lev 20:13 doesn’t still apply. Just because it is out of season and has fallen out of fashion and just because people love being worldly and worldliness more than God doesn’t make this untrue.

Romans 1:32 Who knowing the judgement of God that they which commit such things are worthy of death...

FWIW.

Probably when you call for people who practice the lifestyle to be executed (particularly when you are in law enforcement and include your employer as part of the execution squad)
You missed my point. I'm not talking about this guy, I'm talking about their statement about "hate". Our culture has already defined opposition to homosexuality as "hate", even if you don't actually hate homosexuals. I'm talking about the slippery slope based on their comments about "hate".

ETA: and yes, it's arbitrary.

I already showed you where God says exactly that in scripture and gave you the reasoning it is still in effect. Just because Jesus doesn’t touch on every very specific scenario under the sun means we should go with what’s already been established by God. The reason He doesn’t mention it or change anything about it indicates that there is nothing to change.

A portion of it, but there are some of us who don't fit your stereotype, just like there are heterosexuals who don't fit the LGBTQ stereotype of y'all.

What does that have to do with the 2nd amendment?

Sure they are. They're refusing him, and his church, because of his religious views, no matter how abhorrent they are.

No it isn't. The Baker cases did not refuse to serve anyone. They simply refused to make a specific item (a gay wedding cake). The situation in the OP is actually a more explicit example of refusing service to a specific person or group of persons.

No, by suing bakers and florists to the point that they have to go out of business over actions that aren't even as explicitly discriminatory as the ones shown in the OP.

Weimar Berlin matches what we see today. Let’s hope the normal American can muster a similar backlash and a true right wing resurgence emerge. Not fu**** tax cuts and legal immigration
