What? We are discussing discrimination. What exactly do you think gay people should to fix this on their own?

I just cannot wrap my mind on why someone would want government getting into social issues, period.
I have a feeling this is going to be a bit like banging my head against the wall, but let's give it a go.
First of all, this isn't a social issue, it's a civil one. Secondly, we still wouldn't allow blacks to eat in the same restaurants as whites if it weren't for the government getting involved. I have to ask, as I did earlier with 3nout, do you think the Civil Rights Act of 1964 got it wrong?

Go to places that accept their business. This is not like segregation. All straight people aren't telling homosexuals, "you can't eat here". They are quite in the minority of people actually. If they choose to do so, that is their right. It is our right to choose to do business with them or not.

One that started with a social issue. It doesn't matter what you call it, or if you agree with it.

Segregation is not what is happening with this law. I do not understand how people fail to realize that. As referenced above.
