Oregon bakery owners forced to pay $135,000 for refusing to bake same sex wedding cake.

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/jul/04/oregon-bakery-same-sex-marriage-lawsuit http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-oregon-bakery-wedding-cake-20150703-story.html http://www.oregonlive.com/business/index.ssf/2015/07/sweet_cakes_same-sex_discrimin.html 135,000 dollars cause they refused to bake a cake? Under the law they have to bake the cake (I think) but that lawsuit is insane. Who thinks this is fair? And who thinks this is too much? Edit: This started back in 2013 and they don't own the bakery anymore. Edit: I've heard that the coupe started to get death threats sent to their address so if that's the case then the amount would be justified. I also posted more articles

    So... I hear about this story a lot... but did the bakery actually tell them upfront that they wouldn't serve them? Or was it after the fact that they agreed to do it? Also, I was never aware until now that their state had a law protecting the rights of the customers
