"If someone actually was discriminating and refusing to serve gays for any


reason," you say you can make the leap that it's discrimination. Doesn't "because I don't approve of gay marriage" qualify as "any reason"? And as for the t-shirt and alcohol arguments, of course no merchant should be forced to sell merchandise he/she doesn't want to sell, as long as they refuse to sell it to EVERYBODY. The hypothetical baker is not refusing to sell wedding cakes to everybody, just to gays. This all seems so very simple. I don't understand how a sharp guy like you can disagree, especially if you believe gays should be a protected class.
