Your hypocrisy is strong.
The bakery chose to not make a birthday cake for an innocent child.

The problem with segregation wasn't that it was allowed to happen.
The problem with segregation was that it was legally mandated.
Haven't you ever seen the movies where there were police officers enforcing segregated dance floors at concerts?
If segregation was happening by choice, it would simply be a free market issue and people could vote with their dollars. Segregation was legally mandated and it wasn't optional.

You are mistaken.
What prompted this law was a bakery in Oregon was driven into bankruptcy because they declined to make a wedding cake for a gay wedding.
They were willing to sell the couple a different cake but that wasn't acceptable to the couple. They wanted to compel the bakery to make their wedding cake or face financial penalties.
THIS is why religious freedom laws are needed.

So the KKK can force a black or Jewish printer to print posters for their next rally, then?
If you answer no, you agree with the govenrnor of Indianapolis. If you answer yes, you're in favour of slavery (forcing the printer to serve against their will). Pick one.
I remember when this happened and none of the hypocrites who are against this law said a thing in support of these people who wanted nothing more than to buy their child a birthday cake.

You beat me to the punch.
This is what I was going to say on the matter.
And to be fair, it's not just Obama. It has been pretty much every head of the executive branch for as long as I have been alive but he's the guy there now.

Just to be sure, you are making a Serenity reference, right?

It's like when he says that he "believes" in the right to keep and bear arms. There's an asterisk in there somewhere.

The problem is mass surveillance and data mining.
There hasn't been an administration in this country for the past 63 years that I would have any level of trust with that kind of information.

I guess that just shows the NRA has a political agenda beyond gun rights.
Either that, or I missed the ACLU's campaign to ban guns.
The ACLU doesn't work to ban guns but they don't oppose the idea, either.
If you read the above link, they even take the unprecedented step of saying that in essence, the ACLU thinks that the SCOTUS is wrong and that the Constitution doesn't say what the SCOTUS says that it says.
LK
I'm not sure if you're trolling or serious.
Would you mind clarifying?
LK
The ACLU's motivation was stopping mass surveillance and not the preservation of Americans' second amendment rights.
Sure, the ACLU may have been the source of this information but it will be the NRA, SAF, CCRKBA, JPFO and similar groups that actually use it.

Fair point but I'm talking about a real "tail, horns and cloven hoof" demon.
