You're referring to the Colorado baker I'm assuming. Its my understanding that the baker won not because the SCOTUS thought the baker had a right to refuse service to the gay couple, but because they felt the baker didn't get a fair trial in the lower court. The baker deal might be what you were talking about and I could be wrong on my understanding of it, but if I'm right then I would say people are getting away with it in certain cases. Certain cases does not a new standard make IMO.

There have been a few instances. However, my point is that it is the public's opinion that this is what we're doing. It's a habit that is spreading, obviously.

I'm talking about my opinion, not the law. My opinion is if people are doing this, than anyone can do it. That doesn't mean it's my opinion that everyone should be doing it, either.
