Did I miss where he said they sued the bakeries?
I've never claimed or suggested (some, according to the video) Muslim bakeries would refuse.
Christians fined for NOT baking cake! Muslims awarded for NOT delivering beer

Christian Man Forced To Attend “Diversity Training” For Refusing To Print Gay Pride T-Shirts…

Via Christian Post:
LGBT-owned businesses, including BMP T-Shirts, on Thursday expressed support for a Kentucky-based Christian print shop owner who refused to print pro-LGBT T-shirts, even as the local Human Rights Commission has appealed a court ruling that said the printer cannot be forced to violate his religious beliefs or to attend government-mandated “diversity training.”
“No one should be forced to do something against what they believe in,” said Diane DiGeloromo, one owner of BMP T-shirts, a lesbian-owned business, according to a statement issued by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which, along with scholars and businesses, came to the defense of Blaine Adamson, the owner of a Lexington print shop called Hands on Originals.
“If we were approached by an organization such as the [controversial] Westboro Baptist Church, I highly doubt we would be doing business with them, and we would be very angry if we were forced to print anti-gay T-shirts,” DiGeloromo said. “This isn’t a gay or straight issue. This is a human issue.”
BMP T-Shirts is one of the several LGBT-owned businesses that are backing the printer, according to the Becket Fund.
After Adamson refused to print T-shirts for Lexington’s 2012 gay pride festival, he was found to be guilty of discrimination by the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Human Rights Commission last year, even though doing so would have violated his religious conviction. Additionally, the print shop was ordered to serve future requests from LGBT activists.
