If it was really that important to you, why didn't you ask?" I don't believe this laws allows you to breach a contract. It allows you to not enter a contract.
The reason this law exists is because people were being forced to service gay weddings against their morality. Now it would be one thing if gays were shut out of the market and denied these services. But there was no desperate impact and thus no need for the courts to compel individuals to do things against their will.
Again, you progressives just want to force people to behave the way you think they should behave. Your not any different than slave owners as far as I am concerned.
You and I are agreed that any Christian who backs out of a contract at the 11th hour to cater to a wedding should be sued for breach of contract and damages to the couple on their special day. Citing religious objections should not be a good reason for the last minute reneging on the contract.
And that's what prompted this legislation.
Rest assured, no one in their right mind wants unwilling labor servicing critical functions on their wedding day. I don't know if you've ever been married but if you have, you know what I'm talking about.
What prompted this legislation is bakers and photographers being sued for refusing to service gay weddings. I bet that in those cases, once the couple found out the business did not want to service them, they didn't want the business to service them either......but why then would they go on to sue those businesses? Because they wanted to force their morality upon them. They wanted a civil rights trophy at the expense of destroying individual freedom. This law is direct response to that.
Disparate impact is one thing. Correcting it might be worth giving up some individual freedom. Trophies are not. Be careful what you wish for. One day your individual rights might be usurped for someone else's trophy. Maybe they are today.

I'm not worried. You're too stupid. You couldn't haunt a doll house.
