If you would refuse to make a cake, sign, poster, whatever the service you provide because it says 'god hates fags' or has a klan symbol on it because you disagree with the message or intent but you would provide the service for a gay couples marriage then you have selectively discriminated because of your own opinion or bias. You don't get to pick and chose which part of the public you serve it's all or none.

�restoring respect in law for life, family, and religious liberty.� longship Sep 2015 #1

What do you think of Office Depot's decision not to print the flyer? rug Sep 2015 #3

It seems to me that mahatmakanejeeves Sep 2015 #4

The first paragraph has a link to a pdf of the flyer. I can't link pdfs. rug Sep 2015 #9

Thanks. Neither can I. mahatmakanejeeves Sep 2015 #11

Well, I would have looked it over. longship Sep 2015 #10

I would not have printed that flyer. longship Sep 2015 #16

What you are saying is in effect that discrimnation is alright in serving the public if it's Leontius Sep 2015 #20

No, it's lying that I am against. longship Sep 2015 #22

Slip, slide, shift Leontius Sep 2015 #23

I think I have been consistent about my objections. longship Sep 2015 #24

Quite consistent you would obey the law as you saw fit to obey it just like Kim Davis in Kentucky. Leontius Sep 2015 #25

Sorry, I would not support her lies either. longship Sep 2015 #26

Yours reads like any other religious extremist view of the law. cleanhippie Sep 2015 #29

As usual your hypocrisy reeks Leontius Sep 2015 #31

I was waiting for this line to pop up Lordquinton Sep 2015 #33

Another Jim Crow supporter coming out from under his rock Leontius Sep 2015 #36

You are so far off here, you're not even wrong Lordquinton Sep 2015 #39

Not from where I'm sitting Leontius Sep 2015 #40

Those are all just words coming from you, no meaning Lordquinton Sep 2015 #41

No I'm calling your defense of discrimination disgusting Leontius Sep 2015 #43

So you're defending someone who wanted to discriminate against discrimination? Lordquinton Sep 2015 #44

I'm "yelling" at someone who does not support equal protection of the law for all people. Leontius Sep 2015 #45

You should be ashamed of yourself! What is wrong with you? cleanhippie Sep 2015 #55

They invited her to use the self-serve printer SwankyXomb Sep 2015 #17

Me, too Rob H. Sep 2015 #21

Yeah "reasonable accomodation" Leontius Sep 2015 #46

Lol. You obviously have no idea what the meaning of words are. cleanhippie Sep 2015 #48

Yes it is and if you can't see it I can only pity your lack of wisdom and discernment . Leontius Sep 2015 #49

Keep the pity for yourself. cleanhippie Sep 2015 #50

Post removed Post removed Sep 2015 #53

Wrong answer, Leo. Act_of_Reparation Sep 2015 #56

They are determined to have special rights for Christians. drm604 Sep 2015 #2

What special right would that be? NT mahatmakanejeeves Sep 2015 #5

The right to not have to follow the same rules as everyone else. drm604 Sep 2015 #7

No, it isn't. Please read the flyer. NT mahatmakanejeeves Sep 2015 #12

Sorry. I don't get your point. drm604 Sep 2015 #14

I did read the flyer. Promethean Sep 2015 #27

What happens if Office Depot says that they have religious objections to such graphic hate speech? drm604 Sep 2015 #6

This is worse. It has a corporate objection. rug Sep 2015 #8

It's neither graphic nor hate speech. NT mahatmakanejeeves Sep 2015 #13

From the article: drm604 Sep 2015 #15

And calling them 'evil' and corrupt' might be hate material too (nt) muriel_volestrangler Sep 2015 #18

TIFF lol AtheistCrusader Sep 2015 #19

Shoulda brought jpgs Lordquinton Sep 2015 #34

I'm sorry sir, this needs to be in CYMK, we can't use RGB AtheistCrusader Sep 2015 #42

Update. rug Sep 2015 #28

It probably makes business sense for Office Depot to, as much as possible, avoid controversial ... Jim__ Sep 2015 #30

Skirmishes like this can blow up quickly. rug Sep 2015 #32

What are your thoughts on this manner? Lordquinton Sep 2015 #35

Rephrase your question without inaccurate assumptions if you want an answer. rug Sep 2015 #37

So you are claiming the flier wasn't full of hate and lies? Lordquinton Sep 2015 #38

So, are you claiming commercial printers should print only material that is full of love and truth? rug Sep 2015 #47

Man, you do anything to defend your faith Lordquinton Sep 2015 #58

And you will do anything to advance your hatred of it. rug Sep 2015 #59

Looks like you got the typical deflection. cleanhippie Sep 2015 #51

What defection is that? rug Sep 2015 #52

If I said yes Lordquinton Sep 2015 #54

He's as bad as answering questions as you are. rug Sep 2015 #60

Really? Lordquinton Sep 2015 #62

Varied. Do you mean legal access or something else? rug Sep 2015 #63

Wow, good job! Lordquinton Sep 2015 #64

I haven't given you an answer at all. I asked you to clarify your question. rug Sep 2015 #66

OK, let's go with legal access Curmudgeoness Sep 2015 #65

It must remain legal. rug Sep 2015 #67

Thanks for the clear answer, Curmudgeoness Sep 2015 #68

That's an argument to disarm the Bible argument. rug Sep 2015 #72

How do you feel about the possibility AtheistCrusader Sep 2015 #69

Whether it is a sin or not is irrelevant to whether it should be legal. rug Sep 2015 #71

I disagree. I think declaring abortion 'bad' shames every woman who has Warren Stupidity Sep 2015 #70

I think abortion is good. It saves lives PeaceNikki Sep 2015 #74

which she printed elsewhere and distributed at her church, AlbertCat Sep 2015 #57

Happens all the time. rug Sep 2015 #61

She chose to go elsewhere Lordquinton Sep 2015 #73
