There was an article on Slate a few years ago that I wish I could find again. It was a fictional story about what it was like for a lesbian, with a kid and a wife, going through a day in which businesses were allowed to refuse her service. It’s a slippery slope, guys.

Not the Supreme Court, but cannabis is still a Schedule 1 controlled substance. That didn’t stop states from legalizing it because of how unpopular prohibition is. The federal government knows this, which is why we don’t see massive retaliation against states with legal weed.

Got it, laws don’t exist if we can’t read
I don’t think you get it, because that was not my point.
You do know that enforcers/cops are fascists?
Alright, buddy. Gonna block you now.
You seem too far gone.
My point is that with people don’t care to show up then next year’s election won’t be good.
Service isn’t really being denied here though.
There is a difference between refusing to make a cake about a subject and refusing to make a cake because of someone’s background.
