That private citizens can be conscripted to work for the benefit of those they do not want to work for is the natural conclusion of the attacks on freedom of association that have been the pride and joy of the left's "anti-discrimination" politics. I am starting to agree more and more with the sort of attack made here on modern liberal society that liberalism, at least as it currently exists, contains the seeds of its own self-destruction through the contradictions that are inherent to its opposing goals. It's only natural that civil rights become meaningless in this sort of context. You cannot allow a person to be free to be themselves, when you have other goals like fighting racism and discrimination that may need to trump individual desires and self-determination. To the liberal, it is only fair that a photographer be forced against her will to work for a client that she doesn't want to work for, lest some homosexual couple, somewhere, be denied the freedom to choose any photographer they want (ignoring the irony of the total deprivation of freedom to the photographer).
But what really matters here is that some faggot will get the photographer of her choice, even if it means that the photographer's labor has to be all but seized by eminent domain to make it happen. In happy, tolerant, magical liberalland, it's not slavery when someone is forced to work for someone else's benefits for the "right reasons."

I guess that restaurant's should throw away the sign thet says "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone". And what the hell is this 'Human Rights Commission" crap? I guess we're no longer America, but closer to old Mother Russia...
