The government is supposed to be representing voters' best interests and have a monopoly on force to enforce rules. We can't trust anyone to decide for us what speech we can listen to. A government should have no say on restricting speech (sadly, even if that speech does cause harm to people in our LGBT family).
A business should not have power comparable to a government. You probably have to interact with the government to some degree, you shouldn't have to interact with a specific business at all.
