Re: TODD'S AMERICAN DISPATCH: Christian bakery closes after LGBT threats, protests[W:
The first one is up to the government because it breaks the law. The rest are racist or discriminatory offenses and thus the government has a reason to act except the last one who will most likely violate zoning laws.
People do not have the right to choose which laws they keep, everyone has to follow the rules and laws and if you violate them you get punished.
So if you open a company/business and if you fail to comply with the rules you agreed to follow at the moment you started your company/business, you will have to face the music and risk being punished accordingly.
Lol, what is with you guys and brothels? I dealt with this exact same argument last week on this very same topic from a different poster.
Who am I harming by opening a brothel? If everyone that I do business with and all ladies I hire are there on their own free will I'm not harming anyone.
I don't see why not.
I don't see why not.
Again, I don't see why not.
Indeed.
Sure it does. In none of the examples you have listed the use of the property violated the rights of someone else and therefore the state has no reason to act if I do.
