Can women really be friends?
The View guest host Candace Cameron Bure and Raven-Symoné went head to head on Tuesday’s episode, where the ladies sparred over whether a bakery in Oregon had the right to refuse to bake a cake for a lesbian wedding. The owners of the bakery were asked to pay the couple $135,000 in damages.
“The Oregon law bars businesses from discriminating against sexual orientation, race, disability, age or religion,” Symone argued, “and to me, it’s the same exact thing that they did back in the day saying that black people couldn’t do certain things because it’s my ‘religious belief.'”
“No,” Cameron Bure interjected, brushing off Raven. “I think you are comparing apples to oranges here. I don’t think this is discrimination at all, this is about freedom of association, it’s about constitutional rights, it’s about First Amendment rights. We do still have the right to choose who we associate with—but they did not refuse to bake cakes.”
Symoné, 29, who is in a relationship with a woman fiercely replied, “I refuse to associate myself with you right now.”
“It’s in the constitution,” the former DWTS contestant and outspoken conservative continued. “They didn’t refuse to bake the cake because of their sexual orientation, they baked a cake for them previously. They had a problem with the actual ceremony because that, the ceremony, is what conflicted with their religious beliefs.”
