In pretty sure the argument and legal cases weren't about where or not businesses have the right to not sell things to gay people.

They were more about whether a mad Christian should have to make a cake which says "Gay marriage is great" on the top.

There's an enforced speech aspect, which is why cases have gone both ways in the courts.

There is free speech restrictions where you can't say fire in a theater, I imagine you can't say some kind of violent thing on a cake. If they ask them to say gay marriage is great on a cake, how is that different than saying "congrats to steve and dave for getting married" That is the kind of thing they didn't want to put on a cake and sell. That cake busioness regularly sells cakes that have things like "congrats to dave and jane for getting married" so why not the other one. Cuz of religious beliefs? Not valid. There are plenty of religions out there with different beliefs and how do you let each one govern business. This is tough to decide, and truthfully the supreme court punted on it and it can't be used for precedent.
