I think discrimination against gays is legal in some states anyway. The only states where its illegal are:
California
Connecticut
District of Columbia
Hawaii
Illinois
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Nevada
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
Rhode Island
Vermont
Washington
Wisconsin

And they aren't federally protected either.

Seriously, I actually addressed exactly this before . . . the legal ramifications (which I'm not qualified to discuss on here anyway) would be the least of your problems. Any reasonable cost/benefit analysis of the loss of 8 man-hours for a relatively benign cause versus the time and effort that may occur due to any outcry or challenge from an activist organization makes this a no-brainer "look the other way" moment, unless the worker is so shitty that you're looking for a reason. If that's the case, why not just use your right-to-work rights and get the f- out now?

Discretion is the better part of valor (and institutional bigotry).
