The Baker has every right to produce a cake against gay marriage - in that sense his free speech is not infringed. Nor is the speech he finds distatesteful is imputed to him: everybody is aware that it is by some group he has nothing to do with. The issue is, merely, wheter he can discriminate in service provision based on the content involved. But that is very different from speech.
