Yes, there is an individual (tacit) verbal agreement with each person the business serves. Yet, if a business refuses service, where is the contract? They are essentially refusing to enter into an agreement with that individual.
Foolish. The contract is commerce itself. The service is offered - a cake, a real estate transaction, whatever. The seller is offering a service at a fee. The buyer is offering what the seller demanded. The seller does not have the right to refuse the full offered fee - as per the equal housing act. The African American's money for the house is as acceptable as the white person's money for the house. A Jewish home seller cannot refuse to sell to a Muslim buyer. Courts have recently ruled that orientation, although not itemized as a protected class in most anti-discrimination laws is protected regardless. A commercial transaction is just that - not a religious rite or the obligation to fit oneself with the moral underpinnings of another. It is simple wrong on every level to deny service based on orientation, race, party affiliation, etc.
