And what if instead of someone giving you a present, you hired someone to do a job? Should we leave it up to them whether to actually do their job? Should they have the freedom to say, fuck you, I hate blacks/gays/Mexicans/etc, I'm taking your money. Obviously that would be illegal, right? And I don't think there is any kind of principle there that would make a law against taking someone's money offensive to you.
If you think about it, that's a much better analogy than the one you described. We all contribute to society through work, taxes, and other means. And it seems logical that we should all be able to get something back from that, without the person we are giving the money to discriminating against us.
