Determining law requires a balancing act of freedoms, and a gay person's freedom not to be discriminated against supersedes a bigot's right to discriminate.
When you go to a job interview and the job is given to someone else....guess what....you were discriminated against.
There is no freedom from discrimination. There is only freedom not to be discriminated against in a way that the government decides you should be free from. This "freedom" always comes at the expense of someone elses freedom.
Personally I believe the state should provide hospitals and emergency care and it should be a condition of employment that doctors who work there treat anyone who walks through the door.
However if someone wants to become a doctor and only treat mexicans why should we deny them the freedom to do that?
