The law is not anti Gay. If it's a private business that receives no federal tax dollars then that business can do as it pleases. From what I understand the law also applies to any other religious groups. A Muslim working at a sandwich shop can use the law to refuse to sell a ham sandwich to you. Hindus can refuse to sell any meat and so on.
The law can not violate the the first amendment. The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individuals religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.
