[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would this law enable a situation where practically every service provider in a town in Indiana could refuse to service a certain group of people, basically shutting that group of people out of town?[/quote]
No. No. And no.  Educate yourselves, people.  This is NOT about discrimination.  [/quote]
That seems to be exactly what this is about.  PP's hypothetical -- every service provider refusing service -- seems to be fairly likely under this law.  [/quote]
Few things are what they seem. This is nonsense.[/quote]

It is not nonsense.  And the fact that so many posters say it should allow business to refuse service to gays proves it.  If you want to argue that's not illegal, fine, it's for the courts to decide.  But it is discrimination.  And discrimination is not nonsense.  Claiming that the act of baking a cake is "participating" in a marriage is nonsense.  And as soon as a hotel refuses to book a gay wedding on these grounds, it will be a very big deal.[/quote]
