vwdan beat me to it. Companies are NOT allowed to discriminate even if it is their own profits that would be hurt.
Does sound like a set up though. Find a company who won't do what you want, and then milk it for publicity.
Although conversely in that part of the world it could also be good publicity for the bakery!
Although in NI the laws are different so I'm not sure which rules apply.

Think it's about time some of these protest groups woke up and smelled the roses!

BBC News - Ashers Baking Company: 'Gay cake' row could end up in court
A Christian-run bakery that refused a customer's request to make a cake with a slogan supporting gay marriage could face a discrimination case in court.
Ashers Baking Company declined an order from a gay rights activist, asking for cake featuring the Sesame Street puppets, Bert and Ernie.
The customer also wanted the cake to feature the logo of a Belfast-based campaign group called "Queerspace".
The County Antrim firm could face legal action from the Equality Commission.
The watchdog confirmed it is assisting the customer whose order was refused and has written to the baking company on his behalf.
sounds like a set up.Tags: None
