Baker Who Wouldn’t Serve Lesbians Bursts into Tears on Gay Marriage Panel

Tearful baker who refused to make cake for lesbian couple tells how she has had to close her business in wake of lawsuit  (The Daily Mail)

The baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a lesbian couple broke down today as she told an audience she has been forced to close her business.

Melissa Klein and her husband Aaron were driven out of their small-scale bakery Sweet Cakes in Gresham, Oregon, after they said it would 'violate their religious beliefs' to do business with lesbian couple Rachel Cryer and Laurel Bowman.

The couple is now fighting a $150,000 law suit after the state found there to be strong evidence that they broke the law by refusing the serve the women.
