Private entities should be allowed to refuse service for any reason. "No shirt no shoes no service"? The people don't have to make a cake for whatever fucking reason, they ultimately lose a sale from it. And of course trump supporters can boycott the business as well in response if you don't like their practices.
We fucked up forcing a company to do that because of politically correct feelings and we should be pissed at leftists for making someone do that. We shouldn't get pissed when a private entity picks and chooses who to serve. Sometimes the service is exclusive. Sometimes you're an asshole and need to get out. Whatever.
That said, I get the sentiment is more at the anger of the obvious bias.
[–]-__-__-__- 33 points34 points35 points  (1 child)
This.
Additionally, the girl should've spoken to the manager as that who should have say over things. Not some lowly frosting jokey.
[–]MythArcana 9 points10 points11 points  (0 children)
I can just picture some 375 lb. white woman with frosting all over her face having a Hillary meltdown in the bakery department over this debacle. You are right; going to the manager could have resulted in this cheating liberal on the stamps with her buddies.
[–]GayBoysLoveMySubaruMAGA 116 points117 points118 points  (36 children)
This is how capitalism works. If you don't like a businesses goods/services, you go to a different business instead of making a fucking scene.
[–]bartoksicAR 13 points14 points15 points  (0 children)
There's nothing wrong with making a scene, for example, if a restaurant botched your meal, you'd ask to see the manager, wouldn't you?
The problem is when people try to use courts and laws to take away other people's liberties.
[–]animal_backwardsTX 20 points21 points22 points  (1 child)
For every one business that turns down service to you there will be 10 more who want you. Too bad liberals dont care and justs want everyone and everything to be exactly the same

WinCo is employee-owned. I admit that's one of the reasons I shop there. Not to mention their insanely low prices, great local produce and the bulk foods. I'm just not a fan of their beef, but that's what the Costco card is for.

[–]RefrigeratorkebobUSA 9 points10 points11 points  (11 children)
You have a monopoly until someone undercuts you and drives you out of business. Or maybe you lose all customers that you pissed off and deal with the consequences of your store policy. Aka American capitalism since forever
[–]Fastman99USA 4 points5 points6 points  (4 children)
Probably a better road to go down than forcing everyone to avoid offending anyone.
[–]ts73737 3 points4 points5 points  (3 children)
100% it is. It's the whole principle of democracy and a free economy, and basically how supply and demand works.
If there's only 1 bakery, they can charge quite high right. Because they control supply. However others can see this and there is no reason why they wouldn't then start their own bakery. This introduced competition, and so prices will lower as the two shops now compete with each other for customers.
It's a beautiful organic process, just like evolution and natural selection.

[–]RefrigeratorkebobUSA 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Undercutting and Having a wider appeal to customers is not illegal, is the point I was making. Collusion is. We need a law and order president if we want to have healthy business competition and fair, free trade market capitalism. Domestically. Internationally, more bets are off and we should have American job protectionism in place, globalism as the liberals envision it is bad for almost everyone and especially us because they want to see America cucked.

[–]k-doggie 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)
Only issue is if you can't deny a service based on a general person. You can't say you won't make a cake with a black person picture but will with white people and vis versa. However you could deny making cakes on personal matters like blm or kkk if you think they are bad. Or if a gay couple just wants a normal (not special gay marriage) cake. Otherwise you may never see a business open just for the few minorities.
[–]SluggocideHI -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
You should be able to deny anyone for any reason. A business is as private as your house. Should someone come in and make sure you aren't discriminating against what type of friends you have?
[–]SluggocideHI 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
No, you make a scene and go to another business, so you can point out the bigotry and hurt the bigot financially.

[–]IncognitoCheetosCA 28 points29 points30 points  (2 children)
Reading the article, it appears Albertsons was totally willing to make her the cake. It was a dumb/bad employee that refused, not the store. Yes they can choose who and what to serve, but in most cases a store isn't going to want the bad publicity. Not worth it.
[–]jimpz 9 points10 points11 points  (1 child)
this. it wasn't a company policy to not cater to trump supporters, just the employee's decision. though its interesting that albertsons is playing it off as a misunderstood copyright policy by the employee.
[–]b1r2o3ccoliMD 11 points12 points13 points  (1 child)
However, this is not the business speaking, but an employee. The business doesn't agree with her actions. Most don't want to politicize the act of going to their store.
[–]MythArcana 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
They shouldn't hire opinionated assholes that shoot their liberal mouths off. They lost my business regardless. They are too expensive anyway.
[–]Adult_Fark_McGee_Zax 22 points23 points24 points  (1 child)
The rules should apply equally to everyone. Currently the rule is that a client of the Democratic Party can force a business to serve them, even if doing so offends some personal principle of the business's owners. The best route to ending this situation is through making it that ANYONE has this same privilege.
Rules for Radicals, Rule #4:
“
Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
Assuming this actually happened, they should sue. Make a show of the hypocrisy. Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.
EDIT: according to this source Albertson's has responded:
“
"We apologize to our customer in Bossier City for the situation regarding the cake that was requested. Our Bakery staff member misunderstood the training provided regarding copyrighted phrases, and incorrectly informed the customer we could not fulfill her request. We would be happy to provide the cake as the customer requested."
I feel like that gets them off the hook as far as lawsuits go, but hopefully some disciplinary action has/will occur. I doubt it though, since the explanation for why the employee refused is clearly bullshit. Nobody refused to make a cake because they thought "Trump 2016" would get them/their employer sued for copyright infringement.
[–]3goistPA 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
The greater philosophical battle underlying our political fight against victimhood culture is morality as seen by masters/sovereigns versus morality as seen by slaves/victims. Rules for Radicals is a document for resentful people who see morality from the perspective of victims to poison the well, make people feel guilty, and to generally cause social anxiety.
An American culture where men see themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires, with the right to possess deadly arms, and in which the pursuit of happiness is a civic duty - this is morality has has been historically seen from the Aristocratic warrior class. This culture views it as the responsibility of young men to build character, which means to acquire the virtues and strengths necessary to succeed in life and therefore sees people as of good or bad character.
The reason Donald Trump has been successful in the face of Rules for Radicals is that he does not play into its traps. He presents himself as a man of strong character rather than presenting himself as a person with a particular rulebook or set of beliefs. He actively attacks, and does not spend time reacting or caring about what is done against him (the complete opposite of victim mentality). Whereas the Rules for Radicals is intended to create uncertainty, anxiety, and discord, Trump never waivers. Even if Trump were to oversell himself, it doesn't matter, because he's not playing into their traps.
[–]FingersoupTN 9 points10 points11 points  (0 children)
Private entities should be able to deny service for WHATEVER reason they want and suffer the social consequences of their actions. I'd take a bullet and die for any member of our gay community but for them to force me to agree/approve with their lifestyle is unAmerican - same with this situation.
[–]metalmarioxNC 19 points20 points21 points  (1 child)
That's the perfect solution! You aren't obligated to sell your services to everybody and if they don't like it they don't have to go there.

But what do you do when businesss deny people of color? Or other physical traits. The thinking here is there are certain things in our country that need to be protected from discrimination. There are a reason for these laws IMO. Sometimes there are people that end up getting screwed by it, but there is nothing 100% perfect and we need to accept a few outlier cases for the greater good.

Yeah but while we're forcing bakeries to make cake for anyone why not just make the fucking cake. Do they really have to be so uptight?
[–]Rookie_2ROU 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I agree fully, that private enterprises should be free to sell to whom do they like, provided they respect the law - if I would be refused service because I'm white, or a male, then I'll have to say a thing or two.
In this case however, it was not the OWNER of that chain who refused to make that cake. Was an employee, and he/she injected his/her political bias between a private enterprise and a customer.
Curious if the clerk was working there legally.
EDIT: Albertsons facebook page is flooded with requests for TRUMP 2016 cake. I think poor guys will bear the wrath of centipedes because of a nasty employee.

[–]sls36VA 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I see where you are coming from. However in the US, in current year, refusing to fulfill a customer's wishes would be a rare practice. Most people would do their job, receive money, and call it a day. In the case there would be a refusal, the party asking for service would easily find another establishment who would do what I previously mentioned. The right to refuse services will not encourage every single bakery to 'come out of hiding' and hate rainbows. We are living in a time where people look for problems just to be offended. Thus promoting our masses to be highly paranoid of slightly offending anyone. So we all just shut up and do what we are told for fear of social ostracization.
I laugh everytime I hear anyone call Gary Johnson a libertarian. He doesn't even know what spectrum he is currently on. It's like someone threw him in there and told him to say he's libertarian, but then he got hella high and forgot to look up the definition of libertarian. He is a fool.

Even if it does, taking away an individuals autonomy is not something our movement should ever stand behind. We should protect our values by exercising them. Otherwise we might as well vote Cucky Johnson in.
[–]300BLK_Lives_Matter 2 points3 points4 points  (6 children)
Well, I don't think the store should be forced to make the cake. But I am perfectly fine with calling out hypocrisy.

Calling it out is what we should do all day, but suing them is not the way to go. Lets just boycott them, they clearly do not want our business.

If we sue and win, congrats the precedent is that we have no autonomy. As a business owner fuck that.

If bakers have to bake a cake for people whether their religious beliefs agree with the situation or not, you damn well better STFU and bake a cake with the name of my preferred political candidate on it. This is what we've been reduced to, folks. Bathrooms and Bakeries.

I support gay marriage.
But I can't understand how the left wants to make Christian Bakers bake gay wedding cakes but cheers when a bakery turns down a political request, or a site like Buzzfeed refuses to run Trump ads, or a musician complains when a Republican uses their song at a rally.
How come the left is the only ones the left is willing to let have a clean conscience?
[–]stsudaNV 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
Because their brains are fucking twisted! Its actually not the gays who are up in arms, but the fucking leftist straights who feel like they have to guilt themselves into helping gays. The gays don't need their help, they can do a circle snap and fucking shop somewhere else. But they applaud this kind of shit because they think Trump and the "alt-right," are homophobic, sexist, xenophobic, racists; when in fact they are projecting their own fucking white-ass vanilla guilt all over everyone else.
[–]XtraHott 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
You want xxxx written on a cake. I as an owner can say no. That's my right. Your a woman and want me to bake a cake? I can't say no BECAUSE you're a woman that's not my right there are many laws against that. In that state where that bakery was gays are a protected class under the same laws as whites,Black's,Mexicans,Christians,women,men,baptists,Mormons,etc you get the point. So unless we're repealing civil rights and women's suffrage then follow the law and don't be pissed when you break it and suffer consequences. It also helps if you don't post the plaintiffs personal info on social media resulting in death threats or you get hit with a 6 figure fine(that's where the money resulted from)
[–]Damongirl 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
So it's okay to refuse to write Trump 2016 on a cake but everyone loses their mind if you refuse to bake a cake for a gay couple.
Yep, totally logical.
[–]YouMustHaveSlackAZ 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
Actually, it's a valuable service to show who we should all order our Trump cakes from - by the metric ton.
The opportunity to brighten their day - every day to election day, is not one to be missed. Even if they don't do it, you can bring smiles to their faces, every waking minute, just by asking.
To create so much anger with absolutely no effort? That's a 4chan dream come true.
[–]MythArcana 4 points5 points6 points  (2 children)

Albertson's boycott: Confirmed.

Another asshole for my ever-growing list! Trump is great for my budget because I'm saving all kinds of cash not dealing with these pricks! Keep these anti-American libertines coming, and I won't ever do business with them ever again.
Edit: Here was the rep's bullshit rebuttal:
"We apologize to our customer in Bossier City for the situation regarding the cake that was requested. Our Bakery staff member misunderstood the training provided regarding copyrighted phrases, and incorrectly informed the customer we could not fulfill her request. We would be happy to provide the cake as the customer requested."
Short Circuit. There was no copyright issue, there was a shill refusing to be an American in their store. Looking on the bright side, she would have spit in the cake if she did make it. Damned pig.

    Most Trump supporters won't care (Unlike when liberals are not allowed to get their cakes) if this is an issue for them, they'll go elsewhere, like adults.
    It is their right as a business to choose their customers and methods of business, however another smarter company just got more business.

    According to the television, making cakes is a growth industry. After the SHTF, there's going to be so much cake-eating. I'm switching careers, going to be a full time cake judge. If there's anything this world needs, its people like me to tell them if their cake is any good or not.
    [–]HanAssholeSolo 2 points3 points4 points  (3 children)
    Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a slice of Trump birthday cake and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of cake out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I’m so distressed right now I don’t know what to do. I didn’t mean to do that to my mom but I’m literally in shock from the results tonight. I feel like I’m going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is she losing? This can’t be happening. I’m having a fucking breakdown. I don’t want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Hillary to be president and fix this broken country. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn’t supposed to be like this, I thought she was polling well in Michigan???? This is so fucked.

    Albertsons has no valid reason to refuse service.. You libertarians can bitch and moan all you want, but they should be held to account and their faces rubbed in the legal quagmire the SJW's created. That fact that republicans and libertarians are too stupid to fight back on principle is why this world has become the fucking mess that it currently is. Fight Fire with Fire

    The bakery has every right to make whatever cake they want and tell any customer they want to fuck off, gay, Trump supporter, whoever.
    [–]IncognitoCheetosCA -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
    But it wasn't a private bakery making its own decisions, it was a douche employee making that choice very likely of her own volition. It's not quite the same when the person refusing service isn't the owner or proprietor.

    My take on this is to avoid the law - it's their right to refuse service. What you can and should do, is try to hit their wallet by putting them on blast on social media. Make the argument, that even if you're not a Trump supporter, it's annoying as hell when people interject their stupid politics into everything.

    And more backpedalling by Albertsons, "Blah, blah, blah....sorry....misunderstood our policies....copyright." My dick, their employee is a bitter piece of shit. Vote for Hillary if grocery store cake decorator is the pinnacle of your career goals.
    [–]IncognitoCheetosCA 2 points3 points4 points  (2 children)
    I kind of doubt the employee had any kind of authorization from the store to refuse service. This only hurts Albertsons.
    [–]SykoEsquireAZ 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
    I know he wasn't given authorization to refuse service. But at the same time, they are covering their employee's ass by making it sound like it was all a matter of miscommunication. It's easier to do damage control on a "miscommunication" than it is admitting they hire liberal assholes.
    [–]IncognitoCheetosCA 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
    I got the impression that they didn't want the appearance of taking sides on the issue. They could just as easily end up with a bunch of butthurt customers mad that they defended Trump. Their customer base probably is mostly liberal, who else can afford to shop at Raley's, Albertsons, Bel-Air, etc. I wonder if the state is at-will, maybe the employee would have has a case if they fired her?

    I don't think that objections over political beliefs are covered by any protections, actually. Religious, yes, but not political.
    Even Patrick Stewart sounded off about the gay cake issue, where he recognized that the crux of it was that they were asking a baker to write out which they did not agree with their own hands.
    [–]ShitmemeryMA 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    It's not the fact that the establishment refused, it's the worker. The bakery released a statement saying they were fine with the cake, but the libtard worker refused to write it.
    [–]DarkininCA 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    She should learn to ice a cake, and open her own bakery!
    [–]NonyaDBARMY 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
    Albertson's reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.
    I reserve the right to tell 'em to fuck off and take my money elsewhere, like a locally-owned and operated bakery that would probably make a better cake anyway.
    [–]DerricksColeman 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    That isn't true.
    They cannot refuse service to certain protected classes. However, political affiliation is not one of those protected classes.
    In CA at least they are Race, Color, Religion, National Origin, Age, Sex, Pregnancy, Citizenship, Familial Status, Disability Status, Veteran Status, and Genetic Information.

    She should have requested "Gays for Trump 2016" and see the SJW's hit the ceiling.
    [–]redhelpful 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    Neither should be forced, as neither sexual orientation nor political affiliation are protected classes of individuals. Also, the shop wasn't forced to do anything, SJW scum simply cried on the Internet, wrote enough shitty Yelp reviews, and kept the story in the media long enough to put them out of business.
    [–]pureupscale 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    I wonder why as a California resident slowly I see all albertsons closing shop and being replaced by Walmart grocery stores. I could probably go in there and ask them to write fuck off on a cake and they will happily and then hand me the cake and say fuck off. They have a job and are happy and not having strikes out in front. I think albertsons has been the store I've seen more strikes in front of then any in my life. I'm sorry you don't make $30 an hour out of high school as a cashier. Now fuck off

    [–]Tink2013 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
    But every single time its a liberal cause they will win, its why you do not hear of anyone not making cakes for gay weddings.
    [–]zapeeIL 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
    True. You won't see any libs defending this situation even though, in essence, it's exactly the same as the gay cake thing.
    To clarify, in general, do you support the right to refuse service no matter how discriminatory? Like refusing to serve a person on your private property because they are a certain race or religion or anything really?
