Boycotts don't always work ( and maybe never work ). Sure a business that discriminates might not ever become the next Walmart, but they (censored) well could stay afloat without the gay dollar or the Black dollar and there are plenty of people who would happily be like, "I know they are racist, but I really think their cake is good and I can't just not eat it."

Go to your bathroom and look at your shampoo bottle. Look at all of your wife's makeup. The vast majority of them will claim that they are not tested on animals.

Know why that is?

It is NOT because the government outlawed it.

It is because non-government groups like the ASPCA and PETA and so on all raised hell and ostracized these companies that test on animals and all of the soccer moms across the nation chose not to purchase their products. When these "evil corporations" saw that their bottom line could be affected they changed their habits to be in line with the ideals of the general public. I say again - That's how this is supposed to work. No need to add government involvement.
