[QUOTE="Lily of Valleys, post: 72240318, member: 399733"] That has actually been covered in the Oral Arguments. General Francisco said it depends on whether the item is predominantly expressive or predominantly utilitarian, whether people are paying for the utilitarian side of it or the artistic side of it. According to the article below, there is a widely acknowledged principle that freedom of speech has to include the freedom not to speak. You aren’t free to express your convictions authentically if the state can make you affirm its own orthodoxies. The Supreme Court has said in other cases that government can’t force you to say, do, or make something that carries a message you reject.
