Blaine Adamson is a Kentucky-based business owner and the founder of Hands On Originals, a printing company that specializes in custom apparel. Blaine gained national attention after he stood firm in his Christian beliefs, declining to print t-shirts for a local LGBTQ+ pride event, citing his personal religious convictions. His decision led to a legal battle with the city of Lexington, which sued him for discrimination. With the support of Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), Blaine defended his right to operate his business according to his faith and free speech principles. The case reached the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, which ruled in his favor, affirming that Blaine’s religious beliefs and freedom of expression should be protected. Blaine continues to advocate for religious liberty and free speech in the workplace, emphasizing the importance of standing by one’s convictions, regardless of the societal pressures to conform.
