No, there weren't laws forcing them into servitude. That would have been silly, since there were laws imposing the death penalty for sodomy, at least in Virginia. Thomas Jefferson tried to liberalize that by drafting a law that would instead punish sodomy by castration, but that didn't pass the Virginia legislature. Until the 1960s, sodomy was a felony in every state in the Union.

I've never heard of them, and there don't seem to be any of them around here.

I will say, though, that having grown up in a family that did have some "rules" about what could and couldn't be done on Sunday, I like that Chik-Fil-A sticks to their principles about being closed on Sundays.
