Ever since the civil rights movement, businesses lost autonomy over who they serve or do business with. You only have as much freedom as the government decides to give you. You cannot refuse to serve black people, or Muslims, or women, and in many parts of the country you can no longer refuse to serve homosexuals. The battle was lost half a century ago, once it is established that government runs all businesses, forcing you to cater a homosexual wedding is a tiny step.

I am not saying what the law is, I am saying how it is in my world. Those are my principles and I will not be bullied.
