No, the legislature passed a bill. The governor hasn't signed it, so it's not a law.
Yeah Russia is one with the third-world attitude.
Maybe we should fix our broken country first.

By the time I get to Arizona (Reprised)
Can't wait until someone hangs a "No Christians" sign above their establishment and people flip shit over it.
We seem to have a freedom to choose who we would be employed by; i.e. turn down an offer of employment for moral reasons; say I don't want to work for some animal testing lab.
But say I own a restaurant and a animal testing lab moves to town; now do I have a choice but to serve dinner to the executives of said animal testing lab?
What is the difference?
Per U.S. law; I think you would first need to establish 'sexual orientation' as a protected class like race or gender; to allow people to decide that they don't want to serve people based on some moral judgments but not others.
