Republicans... proudly marching into the 1950's

[Pat Mustard]

I've always been conflicted about anti-discrimination legislation when it comes to private businesses... I believe that certain private businesses (like, for a famous example, a bakery/cake shop) should have the right to deny service to anybody for any reason...could be because they're gay, could be because they're a Philadelphia Eagles fan. But hospitals? Government employees being able to refuse to give marriage licenses to same-sex couples? People being denied employment because of their sexual orientation, or admittance into a university because of their sexual orientation? That's all ridiculous. This is some backwards-ass shit.

If a business is providing a good or sevice to person A then they shouldn' be allowed to disriminate it to person B without compelling reason.

For example (to use an Irish issue) a pub shouldn' be allowed refuse service to a traveller, but the should be allowed do so if they are obviously inebriated or previously disrupted the proper running of the business.
