Christian bakers who refuse to make same-sex wedding cakes have been hit with harsh criticism from many people, especially those in the LGBT community. A gay baker and chef has come forward to back up the Christian bakers, explaining that those forcing them to make same-sex wedding cakes are "Nazis" who are "bullying."

MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - Jesse Bartholomew posted a two-minute long video to his Facebook page, expressing his aggravation caused by his fellow gays and lesbians who bash Christian bakers that decline to make cakes for same-sex ceremonials.
"Hi guys, my name is Jesse and I bake wedding cakes for a living, and I cannot tell you how disgusted I am with my fellow gay and lesbian community - that they would stoop so low as to force someone to bake a cake for them who simply doesn't agree with them," Bartholomew said. "And before you can go and blame me and say that they have to - no, they don't have to. They don't have to bake a cake for you."
He released this video clip near the time news broke that owners of Sweetcakes by Melissa, Aaron and Melissa Klein, would have to pay a fine of $135,000 for refusing to make a wedding cake for a lesbian couple.
Bartholomew explained that wedding cakes are indeed expensive; he questioned why gays and lesbians would want to pay a huge amount of money to force someone to bake a cake they don't want to make.
"Are you stupid? That is your personal piece of your wedding. Your guests eat that," he said. "That cake is involved in your photos. That cake is taken in your mouth, and you eat it in your stomach."
"There's no other bakers out there?" he continued, accusing those bashing Christian bakers of bullying. "It's plain and simple: you are bullying someone, you are forcing someone, you are being a Nazi and forcing someone to bake a damn wedding cake for you when there are hundreds of other gays and lesbians that would gladly have your business. Shame on you."
