This is getting out of hand. Does he not have a right to choose who and who not to do business with anymore? Or does he not have a right to choose to accept or reject a contract? He should get a competent lawyer and fight the case to the tooth. 21 Likes |

breezy047: Does he not have a right to choose who and who not to do business with anymore? Or does he not have a right to choose to accept or reject a contract?There was a time when living as a black American was very inconvenient because most places of business would refuse to serve black people. Can you imagine going to a restaurant with your white friends only to be told that they "don't serve your type here?" Or a petrol station? Or to not be allowed to attend a good school even though your academics are strong? That's what America was like before the laws that convicted this man were created. It does a lot of damage to members of minority groups if people are allowed to refuse to do business with "their type". 26 Likes 2 Shares |

If he wasn't denied assess to start his business in his state, he shouldn't deny people/clients the business he was allowed to start...after all he'll be paid for his services... he should be jailed for intolerance and segregation of gay couples! 5 Likes |

Thanks so much for pointing that out b4 the squad decends with their holier than thou comments. I almost cried d day I went to a club with my white friends in Johannesburg only to be told by the bouncers'sorry we don't allow nigerians and besides u don't look gay enuf' now how does that sound.I cudnt do anything cos I was a foreigner and to think that can happen in Africa and in a gay club makes the whole thing somehow unbearable.trust me,d next day I went to the management of d club and raised some dust. Nobody should be discriminated against based on skin color,nationality or even sexual orientation cos when u got the license to operate the business ,u uphold to serve the public not to prejudice on some sections. 1 Like |

Why are they discriminating against him because of his beliefs? This just shows that the homosexuals are the bigots here. They adopt an attitude of if you don't agree with us we make your life miserable. But when they come to undefeated territory like Nigeria, they talk about hate and discrimination. Right now in their conquered territory, they discriminate against people because of their own beliefs. HYPOCRITES! 17 Likes |

dinachi: Right now in their conquered territory, they discriminate against people because of their own beliefs. HYPOCRITES!This type of discriminatory "beliefs" should not be tolerated. And frankly, there's nothing in the bible that says you shouldn't bake cakes for gays. Jesus allowed a prostitute to anoint him with oil, and he broke bread with a corrupt tax collector. How can baking cakes for gays be a sin? If Jesus was a baker and not a carpenter, I think he would have baked delicious cakes for gay people and used the opportunity to preach to them. I don't believe that such an offense should attract a jail term; it may be more appropriate to take away his business license for a few months. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Seun:If they are punishing him about his belief then that is too bad. Many people believe that their is no God, some believe that he exists who has punished them for their "discriminatory" beliefs? Some people believe that Homosexuals should marry, who has punished them? The baker does not work for the government and therefore has the right to say please go to the next store I don"t want to attend to you. What of instances you visit a shop and the shop owner is closing and says I cant attend to you do you punish him? It is discriminatory to punish somebody for his beliefs or does the Homosexual government not tolerate those with opposing views? The shop owner did no wrong for saying he will not encourage the spread of Homosexuality by refusing his services. It is within his right to decide who to work for. THIS IS DOUBLE STANDARDS. Homosexuals are looking for scape goats if not why didint the sickos go to another homosexual friendly baker to help them. We need to be very careful about this because very soon homosexuals will march into a church and demand that the pastor must wed them or face sanctions. @ Seun my Million Dollar question to you is if you are a pastor and two homosexual men walk in to your church and demand that you wed them, what do you do? 16 Likes |

This just shows that the blacks are the bigots here. They adopt an attitude of if you don't agree with us we make your life miserable. But when they come to undefeated territory like South Africa, they talk about hate and discrimination. Right now in their conquered territory, they discriminate against people because of their own beliefs. HYPOCRITES! Just so you know, interracial marriage was illegal until 1967 in the US.
