You have no problem with a black owner refusing to serve whites or the other way around? What about disabled people. You believe you can refuse those people as well? I'm pretty sure business have to follow this thing called. Um...hold on let me look it up. Oh yea, it is called LAWS.
A business doesn't have to serve someone if they are disgusted by them or if they are acting or doing something that is outladish by choice. Not serving someone because they are gay is not the same when the person doesn't have a choice of who they are attracted to. By the way you don't choose who you are attracted to. It is discrimination and they are trying to use religions as an excuse. Funny how the religious nut jobs cherry pick everything they want and throw out everything else. Plenty of people still getting married who had sex before marriage and plenty of restaurants still serving shrimp.
Restaurants still have to follow laws right? Or do you not believe in laws either. You can't do whatever you want just because it is your business. You have to follow laws, code, inspections etc because we live in a thing called a society.
Let me explain it as simple as possible without breaking out the crayons.
The Federal Civil Rights Act guarantees all people the right to "full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, and accommodations of any place of public accommodation, without discrimination or segregation on the ground of race, color, religion, or national origin."
The right of public accommodation is also guaranteed to disabled citizens under the Americans with Disabilities Act, which precludes discrimination by businesses on the basis of disability.
In addition to the protections against discrimination provided under federal law, many states have passed their own Civil Rights Acts that provide broader protections than the Federal Civil Rights Act. For example, California's Unruh Civil Rights Act makes it illegal to discriminate against individuals based on unconventional dress or sexual preference.
Here are some examples of discrimination versus not:
In a recent case, a California court decided that a motorcycle club had no discrimination claim against a sports bar that had denied members admission to the bar because they refused to remove their "colors," or patches, which signified club membership. The court held that the refusal of service was not based on the club members' unconventional dress, but was to protect a legitimate business interest in preventing fights between rival club members. http://caselaw.findlaw.com/ca-court-of-appeal/1464906.html
On the other hand, a California court decided that a restaurant owner could not refuse to seat a gay couple in a semi-private booth where the restaurant policy was to only seat two people of opposite sexes in such booths. There was no legitimate business reason for the refusal of service, and so the discrimination was arbitrary and unlawful.
