The laws dictating this are the same ones that would punish them if they refused to allow interracial couples to be married on their land.
That law too is bullshite.
Why should you have to allow anyone to get married on your land?

Interstate commerce and equal protection brah. You can discriminate in your business all you want but everything sold or existing on the premises better be made in the state you're in.

I agree
My point was that this isnt unique to gay marriage. Public accommodation laws actually exist because it used to be damn near impossible for blacks to obtain certain public services in some areas. In 2014, I see them as unneccessary as the free market would weed out racist/sexist/etc business owners in a progressive society.

Because they operate a business that accommodates the public. New York allows gay marriages. They violated New York law by denying the lesbian couple the use of their farm, as they happily do for straight couples.
