Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, Round 2

[robvalue]

As far as I can see, the requested cake didn't inherently contain any sort of message. If she had just asked for the same cake without saying why, would he have made it then? Can it really be taken into account who the customer is and what the cake means to them specifically?

I don't get why he didn't simply decline the custom order, without giving a reason. It appears he was the one bringing transgender issues into the fold, when there was no need to.

Could he have said, "Ask for it again, but this time don't tell me why you want it." Then he could make it.
