On Tuesday, the attorneys for Jack Phillips, the Colorado baker who would not make a wedding cake for a gay couple because of his devout Christian religious beliefs, lambasted the state of Colorado for continuing to target him for his beliefs.
The remarks in federal court by lawyers from the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), the organization that represents Phillips, the owner of the Masterpiece Cakeshop, were triggered by another case filed against Phillips, this time from a transgender woman who wanted him to create a cake celebrating his “gender transition.”
After the hearing, Jim Campbell, an attorney for the Alliance Defending Freedom, stated, “At this point, he’s just a guy who is trying to get back to life. The problem is the state of Colorado won’t let him,” as ABC 7 reported.

Despite the fact that the Supreme Court ruled for Phillips, the state of Colorado targeted him again, this time over the “gender transition” cake. That prompted Phillips to file a lawsuit against the state, saying it had violated his First Amendment right to practice his faith and his right to equal protection under the 14th Amendment.

Apparently government (Colorado) doesn’t like it when government (Federal – Supreme Court) tells them what to do any more then we poor pathetic citizens do. Like telling you to violate your personal beliefs, for example.
I don’t know why anyone would want to even start a business in “anti-business” Colorado, or any Democrat stronghold for that matter. Once a business owner is successful, liberals look for a way to destroy it.
Our prayers are with Jack Phillips and all the other Christian business owners
Tell the gay guys and the transgender woman to go to an Islamic baker to have their cakes made, then see what the state will do when the Islamic bakers also refuse.
Colorado isn’t targeting a Christian baker! Gt the facts right for once in the last 75 years of corruption by the news medias!! Democrats are targeting Christians and not just bakers! They are doing so because they think they are god and the real god is fake!!!
