I feel like people are misunderstanding the question or something.
CLEARLY there is a pretty big difference between your physical safety in the workplace (IE - not working in an environment where you could be injured or killed) and just not feeling like providing service to someone because they are gay. There are laws in place (at least in Canada, I don't know if the US has a workplace safety act or anything) that protect us from having to do things in the course of our jobs that will put us at personal physical risk. But, again, nobody has ever lost an eye or broken an arm from selling flowers to a gay couple. I mean, seriously? Apples. Oranges.
