Wait, are you questioning that leftists are having governments fine and bankrupt conservative Christians merely for refusing to bake a gay wedding cake? What do you think of leftists forcing the Mozilla CEO to resign because he donated to Proposition 8 in California? You may think of these as rare examples, but they have created a climate of fear and coercion; leftists implemented their leftist persecution to make examples out of those specific florists and bakers. Anti-Discrimination Laws are very important: In the 1960s, lunchcounters were refusing to serve African Americans period, 0%. To me, on the other hand, Christian bakers and florists who are willing to sell LGBT everything they have, but are not willing to use their artistic discretion to create wedding things in particular, are supplying LGBT with 99% of their services and are not discriminating. For leftists to compare these Christian florists and bakers to 1960s Southern white lunchcounters is absurd because those Southerners were refusing 100% of their service, while the Christian florists/bakers are still willing to provide 99% of their services.
