You keep adding conditions and changing situations. Let me know when you settle on one.

I wouldn't have added any if you hadn't decided to question whether we would know if KKK members were eating.

So, you would serve a whole restaurant full of known KKK members at your restaurant but not make a groom & groom wedding cake for a couple getting married?

If they are peaceful and not harassing other patrons or staff I would. I would serve BLM members who met the same criteria. Be peaceful, do not harass staff or patrons, and be prepared to pay for your food.

I wouldn't be happy to have a restaurant full of KKK members. But I'm serving them.

Feeding known KKK members can be against a sincere belief just as making a cake for gay people is against a belief.

We know they are KKK members, because they announced it when they came in and stacked their confederate flags in the corner along with their cross banner. The son-in-law and his wife in the JDL and are co-owners.

You can't see the hypocrisy in your position? You have just stated in my restaurant I can refuse to serve anyone who has beliefs different than me as the owner. That is the antithesis of the liberal position you usually support. The government has taken away my right as a business owner to not serve anyone because of colour, sexual preference, religion, etc, etc because of the push for minority rights by liberals. If, as you are always sure is the case according to the polls, the Trump supporters are a minority you are fine taking away that minorities rights. You think your hate is fine because you know you are right and have some higher moral right. This self righteousness is worse than most of those you are opposed to.

But a gay themed wedding cake is just impossible to deal with and would just kill you to make, by comparison?



Kenerman -- I was trying to make the comparison I made on this post. That other stuff is a sidetrack that got me off this point.

I consider it completely absurd that someone is okay serving a whole restaurant of KKK members but can't make a gay themed wedding cake.

FWIW I once had to work as a server at a NAACP local convention. Management was not happy about it as they had a reputation for being rude and demanding. One woman who was half black was almost in tears having to serve them as she had been called a "zebra" the year before.

Again the change of situation! Now it is a "whole restaurant" of KKK Members!

A KKK member walking in and ordering food would be no big deal. Same as any other customer. Wait staff have to deal with customers they do not like. See the movie "Waiting" for great examples of this.

If the KKK member wanted to order off the menu, such a request could be denied. That is a special order, same as the custom cake was. No reason need be given other than "we do not make that." Could be steak a certain way to a kind of cake decoration.

Blame yourself.

If you don't like it you shouldn't have made irrelevant points in the first place and I wouldn't have changed anything. KKK members are known in the restaurant, It's not an impossible situation, you should have left it alone instead of pretending it wouldn't be possible to know who they are.
