The Christian owner of a printing company in Poland has been convicted for declining an order for a banner promoting events for an LGBT organization.
Poland‘s Supreme Court upheld last Thursday a lower court decision against a printer from the Polish city of Lódz, which that the business owner did not have the legal right to refuse services for the LGBT Business Forum.
Polish courts apply penal law in many cases where discrimination is alleged.
If service providers decline to perform services without “a justified cause,” they can face criminal convictions and be fined. The courts have to determine whether religious convictions might count.
Why do Polish people refuse to answer this question: would you prefer a white atheist Poland or a brown Catholic Poland?

Everyone knows the courts are corrupt. Those judges deserve to hang for betraying a Christian nation. Sodomy is a sin that cries to heaven for vengeance.

What is corrupt about saying religion is not an excuse to discriminate? What legitimate, rational interest does the secular state have in promoting religiously based discrimination?
Our government is taking care of it right now, fear not

Why do Polish cowards refuse to answer this question?

And why shouldn't I discriminate. I discriminate against criminals because I want them in jail
Judges should fuck off and protect human autonomy and if not, then people should iignore their rulings

Because discrimination causes harm to others and violates their ability to participate in commerce. These stores are supposed to be open to the public, they are not private religious clubs.
