A Theist, my point wasn't that people who don't want to serve same-sex couples should be bullied, but that inevitably they'll suffer the economic consequences of their actions - If you refuse to serve black people, locals will see you as a racist and if the population is anti-racist they will avoid doing business with you. When you refuse to serve gay people, you become an appealing business to other devout Christians and religious people but you lose your credibility to people who are gay or support same-sex marriage and make a big deal about it.
Honestly I don't give a shit about what a baker believes or who he/she discriminates against as long as the service is good, but many people will not feel comfortable doing business with someone who discriminates against gays. You are free as an American to organize your marketing and propaganda as you please, but my point is that you are responsible for the consequences of your actions, and because western nations are essentially free nations, no one is forced to do business with you, so what happens to your reputation is up to you.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
