Once again, I'm asking that we refrain from name calling, and just calmly discuss the facts of the case.
Yeah, I know, this horse has been whipped to death, but it just won't lay down and die.
What I want to know is simple, but I can't seem to find the actual answer in the news articles I've searched, including the "Queer Nation" website and others.
Here's the question....
Did Stuzman (the florist) refuse to sell "flowers"? Or did she decline to provide the SERVICE of arranging the flowers at the wedding?
Let's establish that fact first, before arguing whether it matters or not. (To some of us it will matter, to others it won't)
Here's Stutzman's account
In stories that appear to favor Stutzman, there's the additional statement to the effect "he said he understood and respected my belief, and we hugged", but that's missing from the stories that tend to favor the Ingersoll and Freed.
Again....
Is it known that what she was refusing/declining was "selling" the flowers? Or was it "providing the flowers for the wedding"?
