ADDENDUM::Bakers Who Were Fined $135,000 for Refusing to Make Gay Wedding Cake Explain Why They’re Continuing to Defy the Order | TheBlaze.com

Melissa Klein, owner of the embattled Sweetcakes by Melissa bakery, explained on Monday why she and her husband, Aaron, continue to ignore a $135,000 judgement imposed over their refusal to make a lesbian wedding cake, saying that they don’t want to set a bad precedent.

“We feel like we shouldn’t have to pay when we haven’t even gotten due process,” Klein told TheBlaze. “We also feel like we’re taking a stand for the next person … that this could happen to. We don’t want to set a precedent.”
She continued, “We want to fight this, and we want to fight this all the way.”

Her comments were in response to Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries spokesman Charlie Burr, who recently told the Daily Signal that the agency is “exploring collection options,” which could set the stage for the government to go after the Kleins’ home and assets.
