Very true, so I don't understand why they're whining.
Yeah, and they have their own right-wing wiki. So they should stop whining and go there.

Rush Limbaugh, Dearborn and the Muslim Baker Bigotry Myth
04/06/2015 04:09 pm ET Updated Feb 02, 2016
"Honestly, this is so stupid I’m not even sure where to start.
Rush Limbaugh had a rant about how the LGBT community is afraid of “battling” Muslims over wedding cakes, because our real goal is an “all-out assault on Christianity.” His single point of reference? A heavily edited video in Dearborn, Mich. which also is my hometown. The video is complete bull.
In the video, some conservative Faux News wannabe called Steven Crowder acts out a bunch of flaming-gay stereotypes while asking for offensive and silly titles to be put on a wedding cake. This included asking for “Same Sex 4ever” to be emblazoned on his cake because, you know, someone would actually pay for that.
Amazingly, none of his requests are refused. Heck, I would’ve turned him away just for being such an idiot. What he’s asking for is also fair game for refusal because, uh, the word “sex.” These guys know what kind of game they’re playing.
In one scene, a woman wearing a hijab is handling his order. She asks him, “Wedding?” Crowder replies, “Yeah.”
She asks, “Who’s the wedding for?”
Crowder jumps back in shock from the counter and practically shouts, “It’s for, uh, two people getting married.”
She’s just trying to be conversational, bro. Wallah. You want a gay wedding cake made by Muslims? Dearborn’s gonna bake it for you. Hamdullah.
In another scene, the guy goes to a bread bakery where they’re churning out fresh pita in a brick oven. It’s obvious there are no cakes or sweets in the bakery. The place just makes bread. Despite not being able to take an order for a wedding cake, the men behind the counter still refer him to a place where he can get wedding photographs across the street, inshallah.
The only person who answers negatively to Crowder is a fellow who works at Hallab bakery on Warren road. I’ve gotten Nammoura there before — it’s pretty damn good. Unfortunately, there’s one minor issue: Hallab doesn’t bake wedding cakes. At all. Hallab does cater for weddings if you want a nice assortment of Lebanese sweets — but they don’t bake wedding cakes. You can even look on their website.
So please, don’t listen to Rush Limbaugh or the guy who made this video. Dearborn’s a diverse, wonderful city. It’s the hometown of Henry Ford, the headquarters for Ford Motors Company and my family’s lived here since they settled in 1803. We love everybody here: gay, straight, Christian or Muslim. Dearborn is what the rest of the world would look like if people learned how to get along.
Oh, and, uh... if all this is giving you a hankering for sweets, you’re missing out if you don’t order from Shatila. One tray of their assorted baklava and you’ll never be the same. Allahu Akbar!

It's funny how Conservatives wish that all Muslims were as homophobic as they are.

It's projection. They're always looking for an excuse to bash Muslims.

The Bible is left-leaning because Jesus was a liberal?
Aesops Fables is left-wing?
American History is just Left-wing rubbish?
Science is just a left-wing bunch of malarky?
Confusious sayings are left-wing?
The Truth is too liberal for you these days?
Reality is just a a liberal thang now huh?
Do you Trumptards really know how goofy you sound?
What it is, is you idiots don't like the headlines- SO YOU WANT TO ASSASSINATE THE PAPER BOY!

It's OK to Be White
Conservatives do this with education too. They claim universities have a left-wing bias, but it just seems that way because Conservatives refuse to accept objective facts such as homosexuality being natural, there being more than two genders, climate change being man-made, and evolution being a thing.
Here is a reality about Muslims. They are probably very homophobic within their own family/community, but they really do not care what the rest of the world does. They will sell you a beer, even though it is a sin in their religion to drink a beer. They would be upset by a family member drinking a beer, but could care less if I drink a beer.
Muslims are part of a minority, and have no wish to rock the boat. They will put a giant cross, a giant Star of David, or a giant gay rainbow on a cake. They probably won't put Mohammad in a cake, but that is another issue. As long as they can consider others the sinners, they do not care.
Meanwhile, white Christians want to impose their beliefs on everyone. They are also the most likely group to murder me. Blacks mostly killed by blacks, whites mostly killed by whites, Christians mostly killed by Christians.... BUT for some reason Jews are mostly killed by white Christian males... I wonder why that is?

It's OK to Be White
That could be true, but if this was just about not wanting to rock the boat, isn't it more likely that Muslims would be openly homophobic to suck up to the Christian Right? They could point out how similar Islam and Christianity are by saying both believe in traditional values. They could even throw in how Muslims honor Jesus while the Jews believe he's in Hell.
