In what world does this make any sense? If you open a for profit business, you are subject to the rules and laws that a for profit business is subject to. You cannot discriminate in hiring, you have to pay taxes, you cannot discriminate in who you serve.
If you don't like the rules, don't open a business.
Exchanging goods and services is how humans survive and have survived since there have been humans. It is an inalienable right. You want to restrict a persons ability survive simply because you don't like what they believe and not for any compelling interest. It would be different if gays couldn't find photographers, or bakers or were otherwise shut out of the market. But they aren't shut out of the market and they can find everything they need or want easily.
You progressives just want to control people because there simply isn't a societal injustice here that needs to be corrected.

Or change the rules.
Which is what this law does. If you don't like the new rules....how about you just stop being?
