Ashers Bakery lose 'gay cake' case: 'We will not be closing down, we have not done anything wrong' says boss Ashers bakery "unlawfully discriminated on the grounds of sexual orientation"
A Christian-run bakery which refused to make a cake bearing a pro-gay marriage slogan has been found guilty of discrimination after a landmark legal action at Belfast County Court.
The family-run bakery, which delivers across the UK and Ireland, turned down the request for a cake with an image of Sesame Street puppets Bert and Ernie below the motto Support Gay Marriage.

its a cake.
just take the money back and give the business to somebody else.
not everything is worth a lawsuit, and i think many people will see this as just petty, so they may have won the case but done a disservice to the cause

Nowhere in that editorial does it tell us whether the cake was a Victoria Sponge, a Carrot Cake, a Lemon Drizzle, or a Madeira Cake, etc. You see that's what's wrong with journalism today. They omit the relevant details.

The customer may end up getting sued by Sesame Street - they are using Bert and Ernie to portray Gay Marriage and in doing so intimating that Bert and Ernie are in fact gay wen the are not - THEY ARE MUPPETS!
I agree with a way earlier post (forgot the number) THE WORLD HAS GONE MAD.

Bert and Ernie, Batman and Robin, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, etc.

i dont think they are gay.
its just that women are so inferior that you just cant have a woman doing a more important job than typing a letter for her boss or bringing him a sandwich/coffee.
that is it. no gayness involved.
which is even more sad and embarassing.
