Refusing service because of political party.

A member of a gang doesn't have to be in a group of gang members to be dangerous. I think it would be fine to reject them if they were with family, though I wouldn't recommend it.

I think the law is flawed because of the two-party system. On certain topics, it gets very twisted as it's dribbled back and forth between two opposing factions. This is one of those topics. All in all, I think people being unable to refuse people based on color, gender and sexual orientation is about as good as it's going to get, and that's good enough for me.

I think that these things are in place to protect those you don’t like, and may not see as needing it. Which is why I think that principles are better than a list.

By the way, sexual preference is not a protected class in the majority of the states. So if it is just a technicality, whether that discrimination is wrong, merely depends on where you are? I don’t think it becomes wrong just because you are on some list.
