Changing the phraseology does not change the reality. The baker is not participating in an event any more than a gas station is participating in your commute to work. Denying service based on sexual orientation (which has absolutely no affect on anyone other than the people in the relationship) is discrimination. It is blanket discrimination. The KS law that was proposed only addressed same sex marriages. How much more of a blanket do you want?

You have a very peculiar dictionary. Singling out individuals is not a blanket of any kind. If you want to deny service to Sharpton or Jackson because they are ignorant morons I do not think there is a problem with that. Saying that you wish to deny service to all blacks would be an issue because that is blanket discrimination.

I really cannot understand how you can say the baker and photographer did not make a blanket refusal. They have both stated that they will not perform services for any same sex couples. That's pretty much as blanket as it gets. They did not say they would not perform services for just the couples in question and would have no problem with other gay couples. It was all gay couples.

Some people take equal right seriously. Even a small encroachment on equal rights is something to be fought since that encroachment can set a dangerous precedent. The discrimination laws are quite clear. When you open a business you have to serve people you do not like. Race, age, religion and gender are protected. Sexual orientation is not and the republicans in the House saw fit to keep it that way. At some point that form of discrimination will be be prohibited as well.

Are you a minor attracted person?
 
 

Using the same tactics used by “gay” rights activists, pedophiles have begun to seek similar status arguing their desire for children is a sexual orientation no different than heterosexual or homosexuals.
Critics of the homosexual lifestyle have long claimed that once it became acceptable to identify homosexuality as simply an “alternative lifestyle” or sexual orientation, logically nothing would be off limits. “Gay” advocates have taken offense at such a position insisting this would never happen. However, psychiatrists are now beginning to advocate redefining pedophilia in the same way homosexuality was redefined several years ago.
 
In 1973 the American Psychiatric Association declassified homosexuality from its list of mental disorders. A group of psychiatrists with B4U-Act recently held a symposium proposing a new definition of pedophilia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders of the APA.

Declassified not from any clinical findings, but due to lobbying from a bunch of people defined having mental disorders.
 
 
Pedophilia has already been granted protected status by the Federal Government. The Matthew Shephard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act lists “sexual orientation” as a protected class; however, it does not define the term.

Republicans attempted to add an amendment specifying that “pedophilia is not covered as an orientation;” however, the amendment was defeated by Democrats.

Bastards will do anything to get votes....
 
Your own article you cite makes the distinction between gay activists and pedophiles. The only one making that connection is you. And its horrific and offensive.
 
BTW, did you stop to consider the amendment was likely defeated because pedophilia has nothing to do with sexual orientation, and it is offensive to even associate it as such, particularly when there is no connection between the two?
 
When you can provide evidence of *actual* gay activists promoting pedophilia, I'm all ears.
 
So someone brought up pedophiles. Next up will be beastiality and their mantra will be complete. How do conservatives not see that the younger generations are not buying into these tired old narrow minded bigoted POV's? It's impossible to have a rational conversation with these people. You ask them for a legal argument and all you get is religious dogma, irrational delusions like Magic spouted off or the old kids and animals argument. It gets old.

The courts are knocking down the bans left and right. They have lost the war and just don't see it. Probably some of the same folks still fighting the civil war.

You miss the part where people who have a mental disorder lobbied to get it removed from the books and those same people are doing it again?

Sorry Pal, you are judged by the company you keep.
 
If a small group of psychiatrists and other mental health professionals have their way at a conference this week, pedophiles themselves could play a role in removing pedophilia from the American Psychiatric Association’s bible of mental illnesses — the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), set to undergo a significant revision by 2013.  Critics warn that their success could lead to the decriminalization of pedophilia.
 
The August 17 Baltimore conference is sponsored by B4U-ACT, a group of pro-pedophile mental health professionals and sympathetic activists.  According to the conference brochure, the event will examine “ways in which minor-attracted persons [pedophiles] can be involved in the DSM 5 revision process” and how the popular perceptions of pedophiles can be reframed to encourage tolerance.

Except they're NOT the same people. Read your own quote.
 
Nice try.
 
One group statutorily rapes children, no? The other does not.
 
One person's rights end where another's begin.
 
Murder rate is 15 times higher among homosexuals than heterosexuals.
 
Did you know the mental illness of homosexuality was cured by a vote?
