Remember all those bakers, florists, and photographers who were told they had to artistically contribute to a same-sex wedding because to refuse to artistically contribute to an event that celebrated what they morally opposed was discrimination based on sexual orientation?
The argument was that those bakers, florists, and photographers would serve a traditional wedding, thus the refusal to endorse the action of others was taken as the refusal to serve those others, even when it was shown that those very same bakers, florists, photographers happily served those very same gay customers!
Now that excuse is being used whenever someone refuses to contribute their personal creative abilities to support and further the political and social message of the LGBTQ movement: A T-shirt maker has been ordered by the so-called Kentucky Human Rights Commission to print T-shirts with a gay pride flag on it. An “examiner” of the commission ruled that:
“The evidence of record shows that the respondent discriminated against GLSO because of its members’ actual or imputed sexual orientation by refusing to print and sell to them the official shirts for the 2012 Lexington Pride Festival.”
