See my post above...both intent and context matter with respect the interpretation of symbols.

Exactly, but you seem to be making my point, not yours.
He was taking it out of the context of a celebration of liberation and life, and making his own up. The baker was not being asked to celebrate but simply provide a service that he provides day in day out.

Which brings us back to asking if religious sensibilities should be more important than people having the right to the same services as others regardless of gender identity race or creed.
