-ah, but what about a private club?
Quote:(e) The provisions of this title shall not apply to a private club or other establishment not in fact open to the public, except to the extent that the facilities of such establishment are made available to the customers or patrons of an establishment within the scope of subsection (b).LOLNope, still on the hook.
In relation to the first part the baker is offering the same services to everyone. Everyone is entitled to the full extent of the services he's offering.
It doesn't matter if you're straight, black, trans or whatever. Everyone can buy the same products he's offering and no one can buy the products he isn't offering. He's not offering anyone same sex wedding cakes.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
