We're going to hear about Supreme Court opinions in a minute or two, and I want to address one issue in #MasterpieceCakeshop that has been badly obscured by the bakery: That case is not and never was about free speech or free expression. Because of what acutally happened Here is what actually happened. Facts. The gay couple walked in. Introduced themselves and said we want a cake for “our wedding.” The did not discuss what would be on the cake, the decoration, the color, the artistry, or even whether the bakery would participate in the wedding.

Yes, "Christian privilege" is a thing. It's not about the Left or the Right, nor is it that new. Conservatives like @Liz_Wheeler and @marklutchman don't seem to understand, so here's a short thread to help them out. It’s Christian privilege when you can refuse to do your job and be applauded by politicians and media for willfully defying a judge’s order because it doesn’t agree with one particular passage in your holy book.

Liberal here. I'm also an attorney that deals with this kind of issue all the time. So let me take a stab at answering this incredibly vapid question. Any Christian Baker that wants to stop selling, say, all three-tiered cakes to all customers, or wants to stop using vanilla frosting on all cakes, is perfectly able to do so. The can even do so for religious reasons. That's never been an issue.

Fantastic job here by @jaketapper. He literally stunned Ted Crockett's with facts. But let's dig into Crockett's theocratic lunacy a bit deeper because he's even more wrong than Tapper pointed out. /1 Tapper's correct, there is no law that says you have to swear on a bible. There is, however, a law that would nullify and biblical requirement or rule, it's called the Constitution. Article 6 Clause 3 is the supreme law of our land and it prohibits religious tests for office. /2
