Cake Shop Couple to Don Lemon: We’re Going to ‘Keep Fighting for the Rights of Our People’

After a judge ruled that an antigay baker could discriminate against them, Charlie Craig and David Mullins are unbowed.

The same day the Supreme Court decided a homophobic baker could deny them service, Colorado couple Charlie Craig and David Mullins shared their reaction to the ruling.

Speaking to out CNN anchor Don Lemon on Monday evening, Craig and Mullins expressed gratitude that the decision did not rescind Colorado's discrimination protections for LGBT people. Mullins also explained why they didn't find another baker who would make them a wedding cake.

"The reason we brought this case was because we didn't want another loving couple to be turned away from a business for who they are," Mullins said.

The men expressed exhaustion, but determination. When asked what they planned to do next, Craig said, "Keep fighting for the rights of our people."
