That is just flat out false. Of course they solicit business. The don't design for the sake of art alone. From Ralph Lauren to Vera Wang, they all want to sell to the general public albeit the higher income end of the public.

They weren't personally customized for a specific individual. There's s huge difference. You're just too dense to see it.
Again, sure you can. You can say bottom line all you want. Doesn't change a thing.
This has already been explained ad nauseum. Dozens of designers, who offer/advertise customized items, have refused their personal talents to Melania. Where's your outrage?
Just like the gays, she's more than welcome to purchase their pre-made dresses, shoes, purses etc... off the rack/out of a magazine. They are not obligated to personally customize an item specifically for her. That's their right, as it should be.
You see how you don't see us hysterical about this, rowdying up the lynch mob, threatening their careers and lives, trying to force them to dress Melania like liberals have done to the baker. That's where the term 'snowflake' comes from. Own it.
The FBI is just like the IRS which targeted its political enemies. The entire federal government needs to be fired under Trump. It's absolute corruption to the highest extent of every single government agency. Or we could just put a serious limit on the size and scope of the federal government. They have too much power and they use warm fuzzy words like neutrality, equality, fairness to give them sole control as the arbiter.

Radicalized? So you think I'M the problem after seeing what upper levels of Govt, and the prior admin was willing to do in order to maintain power.
James, You seem like a reasonable dude, we go back and forth, but I generally understand where you're coming from.
The Obama admin was dirty as hell, it created a reason to spy on the rival campaign, and then President elect.
That same reason is why there is a special investigator now.
Think about that, that makes breaking into the Watergate seem like childs play.
Crooks will get theirs. One at a time. All should resign at minimum and be locked up to be violated nightly at max. The guiltiest ones are the first to point fingers.
But if the scenario DSmith gave happened, and designers refused to design the clothes, you’d see it all over the news. They’d be called haters, bigots, and people would be urged to no longer hire these people.
That’s the difference. If one business/person happens to be X (Christian baker refusing custom design to gay couple in this case) and do something, it’s wrong and here’s why. But if the business/person happens to be Y (Muslim bakery did the same thing, except denied any service period, and it went without a peep for months) then there’s little to no issue.
And that for most of us is the problem. Either is wrong for everyone or it’s not.
Cause they have given us more roofers and mowers then we need?
Obama admin changed what is considered deported. Being turned around at the border wasn't considered deported prior, Obama changed that. It made his numbers look good, when in reality less people were actually being removed from the country. It was a brilliant play on numbers by the Obama admin.
I'm sure the same formula is in play still, which is why I think Trumps actual deportations are down. The catch is that less people are trying to enter the country, and more actual deportations of people in the country are up.
If $2 trillion in tax cuts is unaffordable, then what about the $5 trillion in new deficit legislation signed by President Obama? Where are the liberal deficit concerns over Bernie Sanders' $30 trillion single-payer health plan, only half of which is paid for?
And when Republicans proposed addressing the staggering $82 trillion deficit projected for Social Security and Medicare over the next 30 years, where was the liberal proposal to bring these programs into solvency? There wasn't any. Only fear mongering and scummy adds of Paul Ryan pushing an old in a wheelchair off a cliff.
Critics who are unwilling to confront these mammoth spending deficits proposed, and held up, by Democrats are in no position to lecture anyone on the deficit implications of a, comparatively modest, $2 trillion tax cut.
There is absolutely no reason for a special investigator, the whole furor over Russia created entirely by the Dems lead us here, and that was to weaken Trump. The Dossier was created at worst, and at best used as a tool to get a FISA warrant on Trump and his campaign. When he wrote that Obama wiretapped him, he was absolutely right. The media, instead of actually investigating it criticized him, and yet a few months later we find that it was true.
I may be wrong, but I don't recall Obama ever denying it, or being asked if it was true, I read denials by aides, but not him. Maybe he did.
Wasting your breath. Jameslee doesn't give a shit if democrats commit treason.
Ummm, because there are illegal people trying to move into this country that supposedly treats people awful.
I just find it perplexing that more black voters voted for Jones than Obama. Figure that one out
I wonder if that is because the dems were so bad under Obama and no liberal here thinks they should be held accountable.
Given that we are a free county, can you explain why a person should not have the right to refuse to do work that they do not want to do? Isn't forcing someone to do labor they do not wish to do akin to slavery? No one has the right to another person's labor. If you think otherwise, I'd love to hear your explanation as to how that makes sense.
Designers design for celebrities as a form of advertisement, they want the celebrity to be seen wearing their design.
I would also almost 100% guarantee you that any personal, custom designs being done by the designers you reference aren't being done or put on the books through the same business entities as would their clothing lines that are available to the public. A list celebs don't pay for the designs they wear on the red carpet. Their payment is that they wear it and when they are asked, "Who are you wearing?" they name the designer. Add that many of those designers are located in France, Italy and other foreign countries where the laws may be different.
I'm wrong. Anyone convicted of pedophilia with kids under the age of 10, should hang by the neck until dead.
No, they will pay through the nose for it and then, whoever gets the money starts a new once for about half the price and it rises one again back to the top where they belong and start the process all over again draining those rich liberals of their money. They will continue to spout the same fake news they always do. It is a win-win.

I guess you're under some delusion that Trump is any less corrupt. Think so? Ask a lot of the people that have done business with him in the past.
The absurd number of absentee ballots and black votes should set off alarm bells.
So you have a problem with the anti-descrimination laws in this country.
Tell me where you draw the line? Should I be able to refuse to sell a house to someone? Refuse to serve them in my restaurant? All because I have some prejudice against some group.
I think it is an issue that takes care of itself. I don’t want to give my money to someone who doesn’t want it and I think most people feel the same way. There may be rare occasions where there is only a single source for a product. In those cases it’s up to that business to suck it up and do the work.
I absolutely refuse to sit here and debate with both of your usernames.
Considering what Sweden looks like with being run by women, no thanks.
Lol.Judging from the tone of your post, you only give two shits about big, bad Trump "falling" and couldn't care less about the rest of it. Accusing of us sowing the seeds of destruction when it's troglodytes like you who turn a blind eye to all that went on, and is still going on, because Trump is a non politicallly correct, brash loudmouth who hurts people's feelings.
Far from angry. What did you expect anyways? You come in here -- without knowing or having ever conversed with any of us -- and proceed to lecture us like you know better than we, accuse us of some of the lamest nonsense, judge us because of who we did or didn't vote for, then offer your sorrow and pity like we actually give a f***.
"Oh, we're so doomed." "You guys are sowing the seeds to destruction."

I would like to play in the NBA, they won’t let me. That’s unfair.
Don't care, the truth of the matter is you are a snowflake, own it.As he was saying....![[roll]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/roll.r191677.gif "roll [roll]")
We should pay fuzz and rq to drive up to Dearborn and order a gay wedding cake in a muslim bakery and let us know how it goes. They both live the nashville area and have the exact same views so should be an easy trip.
