Gay marriage, we've been told, will not affect you. What a crock.
It has become devastatingly clear that virtually the entirety of the gay-marriage activist effort was built on a lie. That lie, repeated ad nauseam, was this: gay marriage will affect nobody outside of the gays who wish to partake in it. This will become abundantly false as the Supreme Court-instituted gay marriage regime takes effect.
We did not actually need to nationalize gay marriage to realize this. We have had examples for years from the states that already legalized the practice. Combined with the growing public hostility towards supporters of traditional marriage, it is impossible at this point to deny that gay marriage is a growing and serious threat to the liberty of those who disagree with it.
Gay Marriage Doesn’t Hurt Anyone
Exhibit A comes to us from Gresham, Oregon, a state in which gay marriage has been legal since 2014. In Gresham, a couple of bakers declined to make a wedding cake for a lesbian wedding. Because the lesbians in question endured “emotional and mental suffering” after their cake request was turned down, the state’s labor commissioner demanded that the bakers—a husband-and-wife team—pay the plaintiffs $135,000.
In addition to this astronomical charge, the excitable commissioner ordered that the couple was not allowed to publicly proclaim their desire to not bake cakes for gay weddings. That is to say, the state slapped the Christian bakers with an enormous fine, then forbid them from advocating the point of view for which they were being fined.
Gay marriage, we’ve been told, will not affect you. They told us over and over again: Gay marriage has nothing to do with you! You don’t have to worry about it!

This is one great post/article.Pretty much sums up what most or all of us were thinking.Keeping this entirely to themselves is not possible.
From the same party that brought us "if you like your Doctor" and "if you like your insurance"!
8:53-It's almost as if they set out to cram as many lies into 2 terms as possible.Nice to know how stupid they think we are.
The gay scourge will further deteriorate this terminal generation.
Don't tell me about other people, tell me how it has affected you.
As a gay man I don't really have a strong opinion on marriage. All the straight marriages that i have seen fail have already turned me off to getting married. As far as the baker situation go, didn't they get like 500k in a gofund me account or something like that? That should take care of the fine. That being said, i think that the fine is ridiculous. 135k for emotional suffering?? Go away already. I do believe that every person should be given equal opportunities to get married. My problem lies with the gays, or any 'minority' for that matter, who yell about equal treatment when they are really looking for better treatment. Personally i do not feel that baking a cake for a gay wedding is going to jeopardize your ticket to heaven. I mean, come on, Jesus hung out with liars, thieves and whores.
I will bet they bake lots of cakes for second and third marriages.
To 10:48 and 12:09....AGREED!
Fair people who want to get a balanced understanding of the cake bakery deal should google "The courage and torment of the lesbian couple who took on the anti-gay Oregon bakery by mark Joseph Stern.
The Devil is in the details as they say and also in the truth.
