BTW, I completely agree with HaKohen53’s point that Emanuel has no business interfering with a business based on the owner’s stated opinion about a controversial issue. And the left is particularly hypocritical about championing the freedom of expression while simultaneously trying to limit that freedom for anyone on the right.

By the same token, we Jews benefit from the freedom that society has given us. There are no doubt Christians who feel that our rejection of their messiah is offensive. But we would rightly scream antisemitism if anyone tried to stop us from publicly practicing or celebrating our religion. So it is hypocritical when frum Jews try to deny rights to gays. Being in a free society cuts both ways.
