FWIW, I have a pretty strong suspicion that the broader society is going to experience strong revulsion at the signs that are invariably going to start going up at red state businesses, stating that they do not serve LGBT patrons. Every shit head with a small business is going to start arguing that he exercises creativity in how he replaces a muffler and thus can not be forced to accommodate them.

It is one thing when the Supreme Court pre-rules for some Colorado dipshit who didn't even have standing; it's entirely another when people see the modern equivalent of "Whites Only" signs put up in the windows of local businesses in their area. There is something so fundamentally fascist about this kind of thing, I just don't believe that the bulk of Americans will put up with it.
