It must be frustrating for our law makers and enforcers that they cannot know or control the thoughts of the hypothetical people in the shop. Surely, as a progressive measure, they should be spending large amounts of our taxes on researching into the means of reading people's thoughts so that they can prosecute people for actual thought-crimes rather than perceived ones.

I wouldn't serve Gareth Lee in my Northern Ireland cake shop; not because of his gayness (I presume he is gay) but because he is a bigoted troublemaker. Similarly, I would not serve Gerry Adams (I presume he is not gay), although I realise the latter might not be good for my knees.

I completely concur with the sentiment.....Seconded.


On what basis is Lee a bigot?

He went to a shop.They refused to honour their agreement to make a cake with a certain message calling for something many people believe is reasonable.The message wasn't abusive in any way.He was discriminated against because of the owners' attitudes on sexuality.There's no suggestion he ordered the cake knowing of the owners' particular attitudes.

Whether or not you think the law of the land is right or wrong or whether you think he was wrong to go to lawyers,what precisely did he do in your view to qualify him as being a bigot?

He did nothing that was intolerant of other people's opinions.He wasn't refusing to serve anyone because of their beliefs or to use a shop because of the owners' beliefs.So,regardless of what you think of the law and whatever else you might want to say about Lee,the only bigots (going on the definition of the word) in the situation were the owners.

Amazing how some twist things so the person on the receiving end of the discriminatory act becomes the bigot! That can sometimes say more about the attitudes of the name callers than about Lee.

bigot: "a person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions."

So in your case, they're all bigots (the judge, the plantiff and the defendant, along with their council)

In general, it would be left to people to use their common sense.

That's an unworkable system. should work much better?


It's no surprise that you do not rate common sense.

Because it doesn't exist, as clearly we've established probably having spent several actual hours of time arguing on an internet forum, about cakes.

I have to agree with you there Jamie, perhaps we should call it a day - enjoyed it though!

Holy sh!t, your the bigot that has been writing essays about why this case is so right. Not one, but numerous loads of tripe about it. A cake. You fool!
Probably a world record amount of spiel.

Should 'gay cake' have official rainbow icing?

Does it have to be kept in the closet until it matures and then unexpectedly come out of the closet?

Is it likely to try to mate with other cakes?

These are the important questions this early Friday evening.

It has just occurred to me that this whole controversy has been a misunderstanding. By "support same-sex marriage", Gareth Lee probably meant you should only employ the missionary position in marriage. This would be something the religious owners of Ashers Bakery could support, surely?

Gay cake.....
Thinks it's the only gay cake in the shop.
Thinks that every cake that isn't gay must be anti gay.
Loves to prance around the shop Louie Spence style.
Dresses and acts like a bun, and gay buns dress and act like cakes.
Thought no one else knew it was gay before it came out, as obvious as it was.
Does love a bit of rainbow icing.
Turns every other cake it touches gay.
Is the only victim in the shop.
Has spandex ribbons on it.
Isn't wanted in every shop.
Often comes with it's own handlebar tash.

Jeez, I was just trying to lighten the mood.

I think comparing me to Bernard Manning says more about you than it says about me.
