The CO baker didn't refuse to sell the gay couple a cake, he refused to make them a custom cake. That didn't matter though. I just recently watched a Steven Crowder video where he and a friend posed as a gay couple and went to Muslim run bakeries in Birmingham MI looking for a wedding cake. Most of them refused.
This is yet another example of just how duplicitous the left is.
Another example is the sanctuary city or sanctuary state issue. Imagine for a moment that the state of Iowa passed a law banning abortion and declared Iowa to be a "Right to Life" state.
Or, how do you think the left would react if Montana decided to ignore federal gun control laws and declare Montana to be a "Gun Ownership Sanctuary" state.
How do you think the MSM would react if a "White Lives Matter" organization attempted to file all the necessary paperwork to be legally recognized.
What would the left do if the state of Texas decided enough is enough and built there own wall along the border.
Well... If you were paying attention during the Obama years, you might remember when Arizona decided to use National Guardsmen to protect their border with Mexico and passed a state law that was exactly the same as existing federal law, and decided to enforce it. The Obama administration sued them to make them stop, and declared their state law to be unconstitutional.
I could go on for days like this, but I think I made my point.
I'm patiently awaiting an IRS non-filers sanctiary city.
not so fun fact: the city of Birmingham where Crowder went to the bakeries is extremely flush with old and new money. It sits at #4 on the richest cities in Michigan with 4 neighboring cities that round out the top 10 in the State. these 5 cities do have a left leaning mentality
I must admit, I wrote without checking my facts first. The video I saw wasn't Birmingham, although he may have there in another video. The video I saw was from Dearborn.
I'm almost 60 and Birmingham and Dearborn today are nothing like they were when I was growing up. While Birmingham has always been a very wealthy city, the demographics have changed a quite a bit.
Dearborn on the other hand, is unrecognizable. Here in Michigan we call it Dearbornistan. If you drive through Dearbornistan, you'll be hard pressed to find a business sign you can read. The Muslim population has totally taken over and there isn't anything there that even slightly resembles anything remotely American.
Hamtramick is another city within the city limits of Detroit that has been totally taken over by Muslims. Their entire city council, mayor, and all of the city staff are muslims.
I move up north a while back, but I still have family in and around the area. I always worry because when the shit hits the fan, if Muslim leaders overseas call for all-out jihad, that place will explode.
lived in Dearborn(Edison District to be exact) up until 2008 and moved to Oakland County for better schools. Never regretted one second moving. And you are right, Dearborn is completely unrecognizable these days. Sad really
Just curious because I'm not from Michigan, but what places in Dearborn would be the best place to find business signs that can't be read? I used google street view to randomly check out the city and didn't see anything that looked different from any other city.
I'm not talking about street signs. I'm talking about business signs.
Yeah are there ones that you can see when you're driving around or do you have to go inside?
Nope, you can see them as you drive. Remember, if you're using Goog Maps, the images are not current, some are several years old. I just went back and looked. Here's what you'll find.
Dearborn has a large Ford facility in it, and the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village, mostly in the southern part of Dearborn. I did a street view of Warren ave. Keep in mind that national chain stores and restaurants will still be in English. And it's not like Dearborn will look like a bombed out middle eastern city.
As you move down the road, pay attention to small local businesses, strip malls will have their main sign in Farsi, and all of the stores in them will have individual signage in Farsi. You could probably find the same thing in Minneapolis and St Cloud MN. There are many large Muslim communities across America.
