RE: Why Libertarians Want the Bigots To Out Themselves
You are wrong on so many levels. "constitutionally protected right to get married?, which amendment is that? "does stop them from practicing their religion", yes, it does. It violates their belief system as part of their religion. Government should not have a role in any of this I see being discussed. Stop it with the thought that if you believe something and others should too or I'll have my big brother with a gun fix this for me. Get off my lawn. How long did it take you to dream up all that tripe? You certainly did not reason it out and never likely will.
That would be the fourteenth amendments equal protection clause. Look it up, that's how it went before the Supreme Court. The first amendment protects religion. This is the first time in our country's history that one constitutionally protected right crosses over another. (I am not religious nor gay) I am just stating my opinion, refusing to bake a wedding cakes does NOT prohibit gay people from getting married, I think the court will rule along those lines. I think the court will rule the same they did with the guy who sued a doctor for talking about guns. The court ruled there was sufficient access to doctors therefore it didn't justify infringing upon the doctors free exercise of free speech. I think it's possible they will say the same thing about wedding cakes, there's sufficient suppliers of cakes it doesn't justify infringing upon the free excise of one's religion. We'll see shortly, June is fast coming upon us here, a decision will have to be rendered by then.
