it was based on the quite frankly pretty outrageous statements of one of the commissioners who decided that the baker didn't merit protection and the fact the discrimination took place in 2012 when such marriages were not recognized in Colorado. This set of facts is unlikely to come up in future cases. We can't be sure what Kennedy would do with a more neutral set of facts but it seems he would have ruled against the baker if marriage had been recognized and the commissioner had not said what he said.
