How do you get a job if your gay and in a small town?

I am 16, openly gay(everyone knows), and live in a small town. I live in Arkansas, and here there is no law barring discrimination against gays in the work force, so around here companies can refuse to hire me because I am gay. I have tried every place I can think of, even desperate places like grociery stores, sonic, and every other fast food restaraunt. I have friends who work at these places, and the end up telling me that I wasnt hired because I was gay. At Sonic even, the manager won’t hire a male if he’s gay, but he will hire lesbians. Can someone tell me what I can do to get a job even though this is a problem?
ANY JOB at all. Just anything, any kind of money in my pocket would be nice. Or something to get work experiance.
