Well that's all fine and dandy. But not everyone feels that way.
Suppose you're in line at a restaurant and the guy ahead of you is, say, a disabled Veteran. Or a family with an Autistic kid. Or a pregnant woman. If the restaurant owner turns them away because, for example, he doesn't like disabled Veterans, are you going to look the other way when the guy shuffles out, looking dejected (not to mention hungry). Not me! I'd be right back in there with the disabled Veteran to demand he get seated right away.
But I suppose you can do what you want.
Well you can "demand" until you're blue in the face. The business owner has the right to refuse service.
Lol @ you and your little demands. Thats adorable.

And you'd get kicked out just as fast. Better to find a restaurant who supports the disabled veteran so you don't have to give your money or the veteran's money to someone who dislikes him.

Let the Inoxkeeper have his say. I am thinking he'll draw the line at kicking out the disabled veteran.
Many people do care that homosexuals not be allowed to make a mockery of marriage and that they are not allowed to adopt impressionable young children and indoctrinate them into their perverse, immoral life style.
In what way can your logically equate homosexuality with immorality? Try and use logic and not the Bible to answer the question because the free world doesn't have to use the Bible to be governed by.

OR he'll ignore the post.
If I ran a business, I'd serve anyone with money as long as they're not hurting my business.
I have gotten kicked out of businesses for the way I dressed and other superficialities that I attributed to me being a foreigner. You know what? I took it as a great sign I didn't waste my money and moved somewhere else to waste my money. I don't want to give someone money who doesn't like me.
I don't get this mommy america nonsense by forcing everyone to like eachother. It doesn't work.

But why? In your scenario, you just witnessed the restaurant owner pull the ultimate d*** move!!! To me, that owner does not deserve my business, nor that Veteran's business! In fact, I'm willing to bet more patrons who would be witness to that would get up and walk out! Again, money talks.

Just like I refuse the right to let someone in my house. It's my property.

This subject is becoming tiring...the same old story. Business owner refuses to serve gays.
Temporarily, the business owners will get media attention and a slew of business. But in the long run, I have to believe business like this will die out. Not because they don't have rights to refuse (they do), but because the general public and majority will just go somewhere else.
Its really no different than in the 50s when a store owner put "no blacks" signs in the window. Gradually, the majority of humanity goes elsewhere. Except for a few handfuls of locals and dedicated clients.
I bet they stomp their feet a lot too! I get a vision of my 3 year old having a little temper trantrum.
"I want my binky!"
Yes, then they start crying when they don't get their way. Seriously.
