as with all of his customers, phillip said no problem with -- phillips had no problem with selling the couple anything off the shelf, but he declined to make a custom made cake to celebrate the couple's wedding. citing his religious convictions. he was willing to direct them to nearby bakeries and would design -- bakeries that would design a cake as he had done with others. unsatisfied, craig and mullins filed a complaint with the colorado civil rights commission alleging that phillips had violated the colorado anti-discrimination act. finding in their favor, the commission ordered phillips, among other things to conduct comprehensive staff training including his family members who worked at the bakery. after supporters of craig and mullins picketed the bakery, phillips lost 40% of his business and most of his employees. he appealed the commission's decision, but like courts around the country that have decided similar cases, with respect to florists, bakers, photographers, and others colorado's court of , appeals upheld the commission and the colorado supreme court declined review. th

phillips doesn't want to provide the cake. phillip e here for mr. --kson, the radical eighties who has other objections to same-sex marriage. it doesn't matter other than it provides that hybrid rights claim as j.p. said. legalese for we don't know which doctrine to apply but you have another bite at the apple. another claim to present to the court. this is not about that -- relitigating the 60's era free exercise cases except now substitute blacks for gays. that's an easy case and that's not what's going on o. there is a difference between the service to certain kinds of people and declining to convey a particular message. i don't even know why you would want to have a wedding vendor someone who can't in good faith literally support your union. if progressives respect diversity, shouldn't they refrain from bending the will of fell americans toward prevailing piities? this goes beyond gay weddings. to an ever growing list of mandates and regulation, government compulsion squeezes out civil society and foments these types of social classes. look at t

phillips, jack phillips, the owner of masterpiece cakeshop, like all of these wedding vendor cases we have seen, none of these people turn back gay people at the front door and refuse to serve them. it's only when they are being asked to do something to convey a message relating to the celebration of their union that it starts becoming a federal issue. moreover, the case here goes beyond what was happening in employment division versus smith. there it was a prohibition of a particular type of drug that native americans wanted to use for their religion. but here it's someone who is being forced to do something against their religion. which is a step beyond being stopped from doing something that your religion requires. the free exercise clause forbids coercing people of faith to celebrate events that they consider to be both religious and against their religion. so that is why the religion -- liberty argument is still there. i commend to you the brief by doug laycon at the university of virginia who is one of the nation's foremost religious liberty scholars. he was on the other side in

phillips: good morning. i am jack phillips, the owner of masterpiece cake shop. i serve all who walk through my doors, people from all walks of life. i've spent many years honing my craft as a cake artist, combining baking with my love of sculpting, painting, and sketching. and i love my craft because i get to turn a cake into a canvas, where i get to express ideas, celebrity events, and bring joy to my community. one of my favorite parts of my job has always been creating wedding cakes. designing them, creating them allows me to use my artistic vision to create works of art that are beautiful and distinctive and mark the beginning of something sacred. though i serve everyone who comes into my shop, like many other creative professionals, i do not create custom designs for events or messages that conflict with my conscience. i do not create cakes or halloween, for homosexual or anti-american things, or disparage people, including people who identify as lgbt. it is never about the person, never about the person making the request. it is always about the cake. it i

phillips. that would be protected under the compelled speech doctrine if the objection is to the message being conveyed in that expression. justice kagan: you are just saying race is different? ms. waggoner: i'm saying that -- justice kagan: i mean, i don't want to put words in your mouth. i just really, you know, just want to know the answer. ms. waggoner: i think race is different for two reasons. one, we know that that objection would be based to who the person is, rather than what the message is. and, second, even if that were not the case, the court could find a compelling interest in the race inquiry just as it did in the pena-rodriguez case. justice sotomayor: so how about disability, i'm not going to serve cakes to two disabled people because god makes perfect creations, and there are some religions who believe that? so how about there? ms. waggoner: i'm not aware of any religions that believe that but, if they did, that would clearly be based on who the person is and not the message in

phillips's religious convictions. thank you. th >> this is happening. -- half an hour. >> ion the president and general .ounsel the hearing was very lively. the questions were extended, the court session was much longer than the scheduled because there was so much interest on both sides. this is the first time in american history where there is apart fromg message their belief. freedom of speech means that ability to refuse to speak a message you don't agree with him the freedom to speak includes the context where other people might be offended. -- recognize that on each side of this question, people will be offended. if it was enough to curtail someone's religious freedom or freedom of speech, this would no longer be the -- the same country founded over 200 years ago because the essence of america has been for a long time, i may disagree with everything you say, but i will defend to the death your right to say it. in this case, it is worse. people should be defending to the death, but refuse to engage in speech that violates po

catherine's husband, phillip, had gone back to the u.s.or business meetings, leaving his wife alone in nairobi with their five kids. >> i got woken up at about 6:00 with a phone call from our dear family friend, so i knew it was not good. >> do you remember what he said? >> there is an attack going on at westgate and your wife and sons are in there and they're separated. >> that's a call you don't want to have to make. >> the family friend had been at home recovering from surgery when he got an urgent text from catherine. >> what time did the first message come in? >> the first one came in at 12:52. she said pray, shooting in westgate. hiding. >> that's a message. >> it just blew me away. i actually wrote her back, really? and she said, yes, i don't know where the boys are. she said find blez. >> i started looking on the internet. somebody put out a statement on facebook saying don't call anybody because when the phone rings people are getting shot when their phone rings. paul didn't call but stayed in touch with catherine through text mes

phillips own account, those are the two sides of the same claim. he's religious, significant, because of the religious significance of marriage, he would require to express through his art and idea that conflicts with his beliefs and is very importanit is veryimportant bece significance for a customer and shop owner alike. it is in the belief system and the judgment about the moral disapproval. this isn't just some abstract quarrel. i only sell impressionism, let's call the whole thing off. so, if we acknowledge that there is a strong religious components like backup focomponentlet's bat and talk about that. we have three customers that walk into a small business selling specialty suits. the owner is said to be an artist for his unique skills. he believes the religious convictions in all aspects of his work. the owner turns the customers away or denies them access to the full range of products because his religious belief forbids it and they see the first amendment should immunize his refusal to provide service. i could be describing what happened

phillip? >> that is not what they want to hear. all right, ron, thank you. let's bring in meteorologist bonnie schneider with more on this cold snap. bonnie, good morning. >> it's a frigid snap really. we're looking at a dramatic change in temperatures, so uncomfortable and really dangerous. are not mentioned the risk for frostbite, and it is there, as sustained temperatures will be well below freezing. we have wind chill advisories and warnings from a multitude of people. this time it's the northeast. same area that got all that lake effect snow. well, now we're seeing the cold temperatures. our current wind chill in boston is negative 5. it's also brutally cold in green bay. look at this. 30 minutes outside in green bay you'd be dealing with frostbite. that's how dangerous it is. phillip? >> all right, bonnie, thank you. >>> with just three days left until new year's eve, cities across the country are stepping up security for their celebrations. in las vegas authorities are taking extra prec

phillips's religious convictions. thank you. >> after the argument, there was reaction outside the courthouse from the plaintiff and respondents to the case and their lawyers. there'll several lawmakers who spoke to the media. president and general counsel for alliance defending freedom that defended jack today. the hearing was very lively. .he questions were extended the court session was much longer than they scheduled our because there was so much interest on all sides of the case. this is the first time in american history where there is a serious consideration of compelling people to deliver a that is contrary to beliefs. freedom of speech means the ability to refuse to speak a message you do not agree with, and the ability to include the context where others might be offended. we recognize on each side of this question people will be offended. if being offended was enough to curtail religious freedom or freedom of speech, this would no longer be the same country founded over 200 years ago. the essence of america

phillips knows what it's like to sleep on these streets. about a decade ago, he struggled with addiction and was homeless too. >> i come out here with an understanding of what it means to be homeless. i come out here with an understanding of what it means to be a drug addict. i come out here with an understanding of what it means to be an alcoholic. and because i have that understanding, i'm able to relate to people in a different way. >> looking for amy. >> reporter: at a park downtown, phillips and his team find a woman they know well. >> hey amy! >> how much you had to drink today? >> reporter: there are around 7,200 homeless in this state of 1.4 million people. hawaii is known as a beautiful island paradise. but it also has the distinction of having one of the highest per-capita rates of homelessness in the nation. hawaii's homelessness rate is now around 51 homeless for every 10,000 residents. by comparison, new york state has the second-highest rate of 45 per 10,000, and california and oregon are third, with 34 each. hawaii's problem

i argued on behalf of of jack phillips today. what a great privilege to stand on his behalf and on creative professionals and their right to speak and live consistent with their belief, regardless of what those beliefs are on that particular subject. that same religious faith that inspires him also ensures that he does not create cakes -- colorado's position was so extreme that it said the state could compel all kinds of artists who are paid to express messages that violate their core identity. this court has never compelled artistic expression or political or ideological expression, and if it does so now, we will have less stability, less pluralism in our society. as justice kennedy suggested, tolerance requires respect for those with whom we disagree. and colorado has neither been tolerant nor respectful of mr. phillips. for that reason we asked them to reverse the lower court decision. thank you. >> [inaudible] >> i think it is hard to know where justice kennedy is at. i don't want to speculate on that. i am pleased the court

phillip? >> all right, edward, thank you. >>> now while the president may not have any public events on his calendar this week, we certainly know where he will be, in and around his mar-a-lago resort there in florida. and as mr. trump ends 2017, "the wall street journal" crunching the numbers on just how frequently he has visited one of his namesake properties. all told, the president has spent nearly 1/3 of his first year in office at trump-owned properties. according to the journal, of more than the 100 days trump spent on one of his properties, nearly 40 have been to his golf course in new jersey. another 40 have been spent at his mar-a-lago resort in florida. with his air travel to the palm beach club costing the government around $6 million this year alone. the president is expected to spend the next seven days at that very florida resort. >>> the identity of the man who left manure at the home of treasury secretary steve mnuchin sparking a bomb scare may have been revealed. l.a. psycholo

i'm phillip mena. for those of you who wished for a white christmas this morning, well, many of you may have gotten your wish. after a winter weather alert was put into effect for some 55 million americans, blanketing parts of the country in snow as santa continues to make his way around the globe. from illinois to ohio, massachusetts to indiana, americans will wake up this morning to find their own little christmas gift left by mother nature herself. it even hit chicago as bears fans tried to celebrate and tried to find warmth in the bleachers as well as victory. while it may make for some nice cozy mornings of opening gifts and drinking hot cocoa, it is likely to make for a treasury rust commute for those just now getting ready to hit the road. let's go to meteorologist bonnie schneider for more on that winter weather advisory and this year's white christmas. good morning, bonnie, happy holidays. >> happy holidays to you as well, phillip. if you're where you need to be problem. it's a pretty picture

. >> yang: colorado baker jack phillips has been drawing since he was a kid. he says he was inspired to become a cake decorator the first time he saw one in action. >> i thought, "oh, this is really cool. you can do art and bake at the same time." >> yang: so instead of paper and pencil, you moved to-- >> now i have a different canvas and it's a cake. >> aw thank you; you already did. >> yang: when charlie craig and david mullins got married five years ago, they wanted one of phillips' cakes. >> we looked at the website and we were like, "oh, look-- these cakes look good. these cakes look like a cake we would want have." >> yang: though none of them knew it, that simple decision set in motion a legal battle over l.g.b.t.q. rights and freedom of speech. >> as soon as we sat down with the owner, he asked who the cake was for and we told him it was for us. >> so, i'm thinking how can i politely tell these guys that's an event i can't participate in? i said we can make them a birthday cake, cookies, brownies-- i'll sell you anything in the shop. it's just an event

you said, quote, phillips isn't discriminating against a protected class. i'll repeat this until i'm blue in the face. he serves gay customers. what have so many gotten so wrong about this case, david french, in your opinion? >> to be clear, it is about free speech, it's not about nondiscrimination statute. so what this case is about, it's about can the state compel an artist to create an expressive work to celebrate an event that he finds offensive. it is not about whether he is allowed to deny service to gay customers. he serves gay customers. he serves gay customers all the time. he has never used his artistic ability to create a cake that expresses a view he disagrees with. and what's really important in this case, and a lot of people gloss over it, the ultimate cake that the gay couple chose was actually a rainbow cake. a rainbow cake sends a message, especially in the context of a same sex wedding. so this is -- what mr. phillips is arguing here is he stands in a long line, generations of supreme court precedent, that say the state cannot compel me to
