yeaaaah, No. It's clearly directed at me.I wonder if that might be coincidental and not actually have anything to do with trueblue the poster.

Good to hear ATX Cat..... welcome back!Thanks for your concern. Greatly appreciated.
All is better. Out of hospital after 11-day stay and two surgeries, one major lasting 5 hours. I was up and walking day after returning home and averaged 3-hours walking/day within 24 hours of release. I am both lucky and thankful to be here after brain surgery. Believe it or not, I'm working from home right now.
I pride myself on typing a sh*t post crapping on libs within 10 hours after brain surgery. I could barely see my phone. My loon ass ain't dead yet. Ha ha, almost.
Again, thanks!

Do you know why they are making record profits?Maybe if Big Oil wasn't raping every American and charging triple what they should for gas... We'd all have a few more bucks in our pocket. But the Pubs just love to scream FJB instead of looking at the insane greed going on.

He was the guy that made the stand and won.Jack Phillips is living according to his beliefs and is to be commended for it. It’s not like he’s the only custom cake artist in the entire state of Colorado.
If you read the article, the Colorado Civil Rights Commission affirmed a decision NOT to force another baker to make an anti-gay cake. It’s pure hypocrisy and unequal treatment for all to see.
Putting on my libertarian hat, I personally think people should have the right to deny business to other people as they see fit. Whether that’s a sound business practice is legitimately debatable.
But race , gender, religion, age, national,origin are constitutionally protected and always will be. The close call is a case like the baker. He has a right to practice his religion. How to balance that against the fact that he cannot discriminate against gender? But perhaps his argument is it isnt against gender.....that he would make a cake for gays, just not married gays? Can he be compelled to act in a way that he believes is contra his faith? But you can’t just be a business owner and decide not to serve blacks or Jews because you dislike them as a race Or religion. That’s not even a close call and there are no nuanced arguments to consider like the baker.The issue with that is that you would be giving license to businesses to discriminate on all sorts of grounds. Race for example. Businesses could deny service to black people (or any other race), which they used to do freely in the south before the Supreme Court's commerce clause decision in Heart of Atlanta Motel in 1964
Sadly, her crime under trump wouldn’t have been as severe.Why don't I ever know guys like this? The biggest criminals I come into contact with are the ones who tell me they got a par and I know good and well they got a bogey.
It’s not 1964 any longer. Times change as well as society. If a business denied someone on race today they would be skewered and soon be out of business.The issue with that is that you would be giving license to businesses to discriminate on all sorts of grounds.

Our intelligence agencies including the FBI have been caught trying to remove a sitting POTUS with false information.Trump reaffirms his loyalty to Putin. Maga 🤡 s all Russian ass lickers.

He didn't deny service. This is the lie you authoritarians keep using. They were free to come into the store, they were free to buy any product he had. They were not, however, free to force him to make something he has never made and conscript him into their service...which is what you are wanting now.He's the shitty person for denying service at his bakery. All he has to do is not bring his bigotry to work.
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has been very disappointing. She is the new Liz Chaney in my book. I don't know what it is but South Carolina has some screw balls in the GOP. Of course the Democrats in that state are out in space. But Lindsey Graham and Nikki Haley are some of the worst. Graham is heading up Team Trump in South Carolina so that is another head scratcher to me. What the heck Trump?Disgusting rinos. concerned about ”fairness,” “tit for tat.”

Surely there would be some businesses that would refuse to serve blacks or hispanics or muslims. And then you would have some black businesses that would refuse to serve whites. Luckily, we don't have to think about these hypos because no serious person - republican or democrat - is advocating repealing the federal, state, and local public accommodation laws or overturning years of court precedent.It’s not 1964 any longer. Times change as well as society. If a business denied someone on race today they would be skewered and soon be out of business.
The whole ideal that the nation is racist would be destroyed, which is essentially all the Democrats have now.
Being a private business owner doesn't mean you have waive your own constitutional rights.But race , gender, religion, age, national,origin are constitutionally protected and always will be.

I agree that this is not a public accommodations case. This is a first amendment case. It is a much harder case philosophically than just a "refusal of service" public accommodation case.He didn't deny service. This is the lie you authoritarians keep using. They were free to come into the store, they were free to buy any product he had. They were not, however, free to force him to make something he has never made and conscript him into their service...which is what you are wanting now.
Let me know where you are confused about the above. Read it, then read it again. Per usual, you let your feelings get in the way and are basing everything on that. No one is arguing that the guys views arent dumb.
I've said before, and it crumbles your entire argument, if someome came in and said make me a cake that says: Gays Burn in Hell, and he refused, you would cheer. Showing there is zero principle behind this, its all feelings based. Not to mention, there is zero evidence he would make that cake either...None.
Again, this is nothing more but the left demanding ultimate compliance or you will be destroyed.
Congress won't approve that. Biden may sign but that only holds as long as he's PRez.
Most of the libs here can probably say the same but, they were lobotomized. It is easy to see in the way they post.Thanks for your concern. Greatly appreciated.

Dioness, discrimination like those black only reporters allowed at press conferences ? 😂😂It's about discrimination. You can obviously discriminate against people for their actions. If someone calls you a piece of shit and says you should die, you can rightly refuse to serve them and tell them to leave your restaurant. You can't discriminate against someone for their identities they have no control over and are born into, like sex or race. Those are immutable characteristics and protected classes. You're one too being a man. The protections protect us all.
The Police Chief probably needs to be fired. The unit she disbanded as a result of this horrific event was created by her. Her agreement to disband seems like an admission that she is partially to blame. While I am not sure there is any real correlation between the formation of the unit and this death, she seems to think so. That, alone, probably merits termination.Thanks, BLM:
"Two of the five police officers charged in the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols were hired by the Memphis Police Department after it relaxed its hiring requirements, a new report by The New York Post shows. Tadarrius Bean and Demetrius Haley both joined the MPD in August 2020 after education qualifications to become an officer were dramatically lowered two years prior. The department nixed the required associate’s degree or 54 college credit hours for recruits in 2018 due to a lack of applicants.
“They’re desperate. They want police officers,” retired NYPD detective Mike Alcazar told the Post. “They’re going through it, they check off some boxes, saying, ‘Ok, they’re good enough, get them on.”
In fact, the department was so desperate for recruits it offered $15,000 signing bonuses in both 2021 and 2022, and waivers for applicants who had been convicted of felonies. Even this did not prevent the force from being down 500 officers in January 2022.
..... the rise of violent crime in the city could be attributed to the police department’s understaffing and lack of manpower.
Bean and Haley were also hired during the summer of the George Floyd riots,"
"According to a June 2021 survey by the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF), the rate of retirement at police departments rose 45% in 2020 compared to the previous year, with a 20% increase in resignations. The hiring rate also dropped by 5%.
Simply put: police officers were quitting at unprecedented rates across the country to escape such a hostile environment, and departments were struggling to meet minimum staffing requirements. This coincided with a massive crime wave across America’s major cities.
“So at that very moment you’re hoping you can put police out there to try to deal with crime, you’re seeing the workforce shrinking with an unprecedented number of retirements and resignations,” PERF’s Executive Director Chuck Wexler told NPR.
While a shortage of recruits is no excuse for relaxing hiring standards for cops, it is a product of disastrous dynamics the Black Lives Matter movement and leftist elites have cultivated. There is a lot of power and money in stoking fears of racism and hatred. And it is all done at the cost of the safety of the American public, most especially black Americans like Nichols."

The POS is the person who targeted him because of his religious belief to punish him for not agreeing with them. Dysmorphia does not give you permission to be a d-wad.Just yesterday you made this post
At this point the people antagonizing the baker are essentially doing just that, calling him a POS, and bullying him because of his belief system.
Being a tranny is not an immutable characteristic, It's a choice.
And what is it with "protected classes" shouldn't EVERYONE be protected? How are the Tranny's pushing these lawsuits not bigots towards the Bakers chosen religious beliefs?
A scan demonstrated Austin had a small growth of liberal brain in his head. It was about the size of a pea (some say it’s a sign that Austin must have consumed a liberal twin en utero as it was the size of an adult liberal’s brain) and of no real consequence (it had no chance against the smart synapses in his head). The surgery was purely elective, but Austin wanted nothing to do with any amount of liberal grey matter, so he had it knifed out and fed it to his cat. That is the rumor on Congress in Austin.Glad you're OK... but even if they had removed your brain, you'd still be more intelligent than the libs on here lol.
Naming a police unit the "Scorpion Unit" in and of itself seems like a bad idea. Sounds like something from a Dirty Harry movie.The Police Chief probably needs to be fired. The unit she disbanded as a result of this horrific event was created by her. Her agreement to disband seems like an admission that she is partially to blame. While I am not sure there is any real correlation between the formation of the unit and this death, she seems to think so. That, alone, probably merits termination.
He did it!!!!!! 😝
Thats mainly what I was trying to get across, although in retrospect I thinkI got sidetracked a bit.Being a private business owner doesn't mean you have waive your own constitutional rights.
But I thought free market capitalism and competition were good? Look who's a protectionist labor rights advocate at their core! Time to support Bernie?
Probably true, but I suspect she wanted to give the appearance of being tough on crime. I believe she went on Don Lemon’s show to address the scandal. That, as well, probably justifies termination. Have a damn press conference.Naming a police unit the "Scorpion Unit" in and of itself seems like a bad idea. Sounds like something from a Dirty Harry movie.
