The Sweet Smell of Justice for a Baker & Florist @ SCOTUS

Colorado baker – Jack Phillips – won a modest victory at the U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) the other week.  SCOTUS justices ruled that officials who prosecuted Phillips for alleged customer discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation did so in a way that unconstitutionally targeted his religious beliefs.

Now, Washington State florist – Barronelle Stutzman – may get her chance at regaining religious liberty.  SCOTUS justices sent her case back to the state’s Supreme Court, ordering that Stutzman’s guilt under the state’s so-called “non-discrimination” law be reconsidered.  According to Stutzman’s attorney, the elderly florist was treated similarly to Phillips because State Attorney General Bob Ferguson critiqued Stutzman’s beliefs and sued her personally.

I’ve written extensively in the past what these cases.  They represent a violation of the American Dream and the American traditions of religious tolerance and liberty.  Stutzman and Phillips are doing their part in the courts; now you must do yours in the market place.

I urge you to help the likes of Phillips and Stutzman by refusing to buy from corporations that back leftist bigots at the Human Rights Campaign and corporations which don’t want you to be able to live out your religious beliefs.  2ndVote provides you a list of corporations to boycott at http://2ndvote.com/human-rights-campaign/
