You stated, in no uncertain terms, that private citizens should be forced to engage in speech they find objectionable. I am posting to state that such a thing is not only bad policy, but that it is contrary to every constitutional, moral, and ethical standard that defines America.

The outrage isn't because a business failed. It's because people were able to use the law as a weapon thereby setting an extremely poor precedent. Think about the consequences when you allow private citizens to use the law to silence dissenting speech. It is absolutely chilling.

I'm sorry I just don't know what you mean in the fist paragraph. I think you are inserting some of your fears into something I said earlier.

second I have no fear that if someone was trying to use the laws for evil purposes that courts would be able to make sure every thing was on the up and up and that the sky isn't falling.

If you are worried about freedom, you should focus your energy on corrupt militaristic police.
