RE: Gay Pastor Claims Whole Foods Wrote Anti-Gay Slur on Cake
Not that there's any doubt in anyone's mind, but as a calligrapher, I can see that 'FAG' is written much more lightly and raggedly-the letters are clearly out of alignment, which happens a lot when people who aren't used to it use a brush or pen to write without a guideline. The reacharound-preacher tried to copy the baker for credibility, but he's not used to decoration and the 'G' gives him away. Again, rounded letters are often the hardest to imitate in an unfamiliar hand and the 'G' is sloppy and ragged and in a different font as well as unjustified. The spacing is wrong too-the 'Love Wins' writer had plenty of practice and it's compact lettering; the later addition is stretched out and lacking all integrity, like the forger's anus.

Clearly, a false fag operation.

Report: Texas pastor says Whole Foods 'did nothing wrong,' drops lawsuit over gay slur on cake
Quote:A gay pastor who accused grocery store chain Whole Foods of putting an anti-gay slur on a cake he ordered in April is dropping his lawsuit against the Austin-based retailer, news station KVUE reported Monday.
Pastor Jordan Brown — a founder of the Church of Open Doors who sued the Austin-based chain on April 18 — told the news station that he was "wrong to pursue this matter and use the media to perpetuate this story" and that the company "did nothing wrong."
"I want to apologize to Whole Foods and its team members for questioning the company's commitment to its values, and especially the baker associate who I understand was put in a terrible position because of my actions," Brown told the news station.
Brown said, "I apologize to the LGBT community for diverting attention from real issues. I also want to apologize to my partner, my family, my church family, and my attorney."

Brown claimed the store put the slur on a cake he picked up from the downtown Austin store on April 14. The chain called Brown's accusations "fraudulent."
Brown claimed he had initially asked for the words "love wins" to be written in icing on the cake, but failed to see that a baker at the store had allegedly added the slur before he paid for the dessert, the pastor said in a video uploaded to YouTube.
In his video, Brown says he did not open the cake box and showed a sealed label at the bottom and side of the box.

Whole Foods later released security footage showing that they said shows that label on top of the box as Brown purchases the cake. The grocery chain claims the bakery employee wrote "love wins" on the cake and that the message was visible through the clear portion of the cake's packaging.

"We stand behind our bakery team member, who is part of the LGBTQ community, and we appreciate the team members and shoppers who recognize that this claim is completely false and directly contradicts Whole Foods Market's inclusive culture, which celebrates diversity," the store said in April.

So the guy who lied about a store and tried to destroy its reputation has found it in his heart to forgive them.
