Why is it even necessary to pass a law like this? As a business owner in a supposedly free market you should have every right to provide your services to whom ever you choose to and let the market decide wether or not you will stay in business. From a business perspective your decreasing your customer base and you are risking potential bad publicity but if your so close minded that should be your choice. Look how fast all the politicians are crawfishing on this law bc major corporations and events that bring billions of dollars to the state economy are threatening to leave Indiana. If you want to commit economic suicide go right ahead! --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/christians-when-jesus-was-a-carpenter-do-you-think-he-refused-business-from-gays/716526)._
