To create that context so that the baker could be sued if, as they expected, he refused.
First of all, slipknot said it was because of all of the "pro-gay stuff" they wanted on the cake. They never discussed the details of what the cake would say or look like. He didn't reject them based on the design of the cake, but once he figured out they are gay, he refused to make it.

The way Colorado law is written, he broke the law. He could have refused to make certain designs or phrases. He cannot refuse to sell them a cake he would sell to a straight couple.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

And that is why a Jewish Baker could refuse to put pro-nazi wording on a cake
