Taste the double standard: Colorado bakeries can refuse anti-gay cakes, but not gay wedding cakes

When is discrimination not discrimination? When the left says so? In Colorado, apparently you are able to refuse service[1] to some people, but not others…

Last week, the Colorado Civil Rights Division ruled that Denver’s Azucar Bakery did not discriminate against William Jack, a Christian from Castle Rock, by refusing to make two cakes with anti-gay messages and imagery that he requested last year.

Last year, the Colorado Civil Rights Division ruled that another bakery, Masterpiece Cake Shop in Lakewood, could not refuse to make a wedding cake for a gay couple, calling it discriminatory.

To me this is simple.  I personally WANT to be able to and have the right to choose and refuse service of someone who wants an anti-gay anything.  I just think other people should also have that same right to choose not to take part in a same-sex wedding if it goes against their religious beliefs. Freedom.  It’s awesome.
