‘Full House’ Star Defends Christian Bakers: ‘I Don’t Think This Is Discrimination’
Samantha Reinis /
The talk show “The View” pitted two childhood stars against each other to discuss the controversial issue of Christian bakers receiving a $135,000 fine for refusing to bake a lesbian wedding cake.
Candace Cameron Bure of “Full House” and Raven-Symoné of “That’s So Raven” went head to head discussing the hot topic issue, coming down on different sides of the argument. While Raven-Symoné began the conversation by comparing the issue to the civil rights movement of the 1960s, Bure quickly stopped her, claiming that was comparing apples and oranges.
“I don’t think this is discrimination at all. This is about freedom of association,” Bure said, speaking about Aaron and Melissa Klein, who received the fine after they declined to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple. “It’s about constitutional rights. It’s about First Amendment rights. We do have the right to still choose who we associate with.”
“It’s in the Constitution,” Bure stated.
