So according to Huckabee's plans, a business could refuse service to a gay person because of religious beliefs, but if a gay person (or even straight) refused service to a religious person who refuses to serve gay people because of religious beliefs, that would be illegal?
That's sort of how it reads if you look at the business aspect of it. He seems to be saying that if you, as a consumer, discriminate against a business that refuses services to gay people by not patronizing that business then you could be prosecuted for a hate crime... ?
Presumably, this means that if one didn't choose the marriage-inequality-believing bakery to purchase one's (hetero) wedding cake from because they don't accept or recognize marriage equality, then one could be persecuted for a hate crime?
