The "slippery slope" argument is usually bollocks, but I do think it applies here.
I could refuse service to anyone I like, and cite in my defense that I had reason to believe they had [whatever political views]. If pressed, and it turns out they don't, I can just say it was an honest mistake.
I think the same principle applies as to the non-gay wedding cake baker. If you're not prepared to serve everyone (who is behaving decently and not making unreasonable requests) then you shouldn't go into a business serving the general public.
