BINGO! what?

Well, at the moment...I'm talking to you.
She tried her hand at the recurrent patterns thing and misfired :chuckle:
Perspective is everything, she hit it square on in my view.
Im curious, are you liberal?
A thought...
You're curious.
Does that make you "a liberal."
No. It does not.
And no, I am not a liberal.
Good question.
I tend to practice what I understand the Apostle Paul was practicing when he agreed with the words of a lost person that the "witness" of their observation on a thing he had agreed with was "true."
In other words, I don't hold to the overall views of one side or another, I tend to agree with who ever's "witness is true" on a thing, on a case by case basis.
What would that be, promoting baby-killers and gay marriage? The only thing you practice is rank stupidity.

problem is, the homos don't want to buy one of the cakes in the window
they want a special cake that sez "Congratulations On Your Perverted "Wedding", You Disgusting Homos"
oh wait
there wouldn't be any problem if they'd take a cake like that, would there?
Legally, no, there wouldn't be. The problem is, conservatives insist on processing the actual cases inaccurately. Cake-makers retain what you could call editorial control over their creative works, i.e., they cannot be compelled to write a message that they don't wish to write. In the case in Oregon that got so much attention, the shop refused service to the couple as soon as they heard that it was a gay couple, without any discussion of any writing on the cake, which made it a clear case of unlawful discrimination.
So then you hold the same standard for the New Mexico businessman and owner of "1st in SEO" an internet enhancement business that refuses to do business with anyone that supported, or supports Trump? I mean if cake bakers are to be compelled to engage in business with homosexuals against their will, should not this businessman be compelled to do business with people with different political views? Just curious if you are consistent...it is just performing a business service after all, it is only as big a deal that he makes of it, no? or have we arrived to the fact that discrimination is O.K. for this but, not for that?

Ok, that's a position that you can take. But why constantly misconstrue the situation?
I don't think political affiliation is currently a protected class. But maybe it should be?

it would be interesting to see how it would play out if a business owner refused to engage in business because of a potential customer's political affilaition
Well, liberals have been decrying that discrimination in any form is wrong so, why should discrimination based upon political/worldview positions be any different? I'll be interested to hear the first liberal defend political/worldview based discrimination being perfectly acceptable, because if that horse is let out of the barn it blows their entire discrimination argument completely out of the water.

:doh:
I skimmed it and thought you were talking about a hypothetical
now i read it and the primary and secondary links
i'm all for that - as I've said elsewhere, private businesses shouldn't be forced to do business with anyone they don't want to, regardless of the reason
besides, for the little business he'll lose from his trump-supporting customers, he'l probably gain many more in dopey hillary-supporters (or even dopier bernie-bots)
looks like he's getting massive publicity from this too :thumb:
The guy was on the Tucker show on FOX for an interview where I thought he was treated fairly and allowed to speak but, when the obvious questions came his way he looked like a sour grapes liberal hypocrite on whether he was engaging in discrimination.
Yea, of course.
It's a temporary emotional reaction (similar to the cake scenario). The market will dictate matters...he'll soon eagerly accept everyone's money (or perish)..it's what biz owners do.
Why should anyone have to suck up being a target on their own time in a place designed to relax and enjoy a show?
Was pence there in any other capacity? The cast member is who needs to learn how to suck it up.
