Discriminating against gay people should not be allowed through free speech, in the same way that discriminating against other minorities - whether visible or not.
We do not allow discrimination based on religion, which is a choice. Why do we condone discrimination based on sexual orientation, which for the vast majority of gay people is not a choice?

Speech is different than discrimination. That's why the white supremists are allowed to hold their rally downtown every year, but they can't only hire white people. Similarly, this guy can speak negatively about anyone he wants, but he can't not hire or serve any group.
