Re: Bakers who refused to make 'gay cake' say they felt 'victimised'

Quote from The Sun:
Ashers Bakery has twice been found to have discriminated against a gay activist for cancelling his order for a cake bearing the slogan 'Support Gay Marriage'.
But the firm is continuing its fight today in the supreme court in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
David Scoffield QC, for Ashers, told the court: "This is a case of forced or compelled speech, unlike other cases which have come before the court."
He added: "Mr and Mrs McArthur have been penalised by the state in the form of the judgment at the County Court for failing through their family company to create and provide a product bearing an explicit slogan 'Support Gay Marriage' to which they have a genuine objection in conscience."

I assume if they don't get the result they want from the supreme court then they'll be going to the ECJ.
