At the start of this week I commented about the ruling by the Supremes that favored the Masterpiece Cakeshop that had discriminated against a gay couple. Between the Lines, Michigan’s LGBTQ newspaper, has an article, reprinted from the Washington Blade, with a lot more detail and a couple important and clarifying points.
The Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act is still in place. Someone who discriminates can still be charged under the act by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission.
If Jack Phillips, the owner of the cakeshop, were to discriminate again he could be charged again. And with that second charge the CO-CRC likely won’t use the anti-religious phrasing that got them in trouble the first time.
