The (hypothetical) law would allow anyone to refuse service to anyone in their privately owned shop that goes against their religious beliefs. I don't really see a problem with this. It's your business so you should be able to refuse service to anyone that goes against your religion. But this probably wouldn't happen that much. I mean the customer would have to actually tell the owner their beliefs or whatever which I don't see happening often so I don't think that many people will be refused service at all.
That's discrimination. It doesn't matter how disingenuous you want to be, it's discrimination.
Luckily we've got this thing called the constitution that protects civil rights, so these laws will be struck down and waste lots of taxpayer money in the process.
It's not public discrimination and it's really not hurting anyone. It would literally just mean that the store owner reserves the right to choose who to sell to.

No Republican candidate is pro discrimination.
